EnglishCentral brings speech recognition technology to the Philippines

EnglishCentral, a Boston-based company funded by Google Ventures, has established its regional operating headquarters in Manila. EnglishCentral.com makes English language learning fun and effective by turning popular web videos into powerful language learning experiences. Users watch and speak videos and receive instant, personalized pronunciation feedback from its proprietary cloud-based speech recognition systems. EnglishCentral customers span the world, but there is a strong focus on customers in Asia including Japan, Korea, and China. EnglishCentral chose Manila in order to provide a regional operating headquarters to support its expanding Asian business and to support future growth and investments in technology and content. 

 

EnglishCentral Philippines has a wide range of job opportunities in software development in PHP, Java, iOS, Android, and quality assurance (QA). Working outside the traditional office culture, EnglishCentral is continuously evolving and always open to new ideas. “Our employees enjoy benefits such as flexible work hours, gym subsidy, outings, and a fun work environment,” says Country Manager Ferdie Papa. “At present, we are offering competitive compensation packages and opportunities for career advancement through further studies.”
