Hire NLP engineers who turn text into structured data

Reviews, tickets, contracts and call transcripts are full of signal nobody has time to read. Cubehire NLP engineers build text classification, extraction and search systems that pull that signal out at scale and choose between a small fast model and a large language model for each job.

The work

What our NLP Engineers build

Typical projects companies bring a NLP engineer in for.

1

Text classification

Routing tickets, tagging feedback and flagging risky messages automatically with measured accuracy.

2

Entity and field extraction

Names, dates, amounts and clauses pulled from contracts, emails and medical or legal text.

3

Sentiment and topic analysis

Dashboards that show what customers are saying across reviews, surveys and support calls.

4

Semantic search

Search that matches meaning rather than exact words across large document collections.

Vetting

How we vet NLP Engineers

Every NLP engineer sits the Cubehire AI interview: multiple choice fundamentals, a timed written and coding round, and a recorded video round. A person on our team then reviews the profile before any company sees it. For this role, the interview checks that they can:

  1. Check 1

    Chooses between a fine tuned small model and an LLM for a high volume classification task and justifies the cost.

  2. Check 2

    Designs an annotation guideline and explains how to measure labeler agreement.

  3. Check 3

    Handles messy real world text such as typos, mixed languages and domain jargon.

Questions about hiring NLP Engineers

What companies ask before they hire a NLP engineer through Cubehire.

Talk to our team
Yes, for anything high volume or regulated. A fine tuned small model can be many times cheaper and faster than an LLM for the same classification, and an NLP engineer knows when each is the right tool.
Yes. Calls are transcribed with speech models first, then analyzed for topics, sentiment, compliance phrases or action items like any other text.
A sample of your real text and a clear list of what you want to extract or classify. Your engineer will label a small set, build a baseline and show you the accuracy before scaling up.
Yes. Multilingual models cover Spanish and many other languages common in US customer bases, and accuracy is measured per language.
A flat rate quoted before you interview anyone: a one time fee for full time placements, or a fixed monthly rate for contract work. There is no percentage of salary. See the pricing page for current rates.
