About the Role **Role Overview** We are opening a multilingual slate of Transcription QA Linguist roles to support an ongoing audio transcription quality program. Each linguist will be native or near\-native fluent in their assigned language (or language pair) and will perform quality assurance review on transcription output that has already been generated upstream. This is a QA and light\-correction role, not a from\-scratch transcription role. This role is part of a broader hiring effort spanning multiple languages and language pairs, listed in full below. **Key Responsibilities** * Review transcription output against source audio to verify accuracy, completeness, and adherence to style/formatting guidelines. * Identify and correct transcription errors, including misheard words, mis\-timed segments, punctuation, and speaker labeling. * Apply light corrections to bring transcripts to required quality standards; flag files that show signs of requiring substantial rework beyond standard QA scope. * Maintain consistency with style guides and project\-specific glossaries/terminology for the assigned language(s). * Meet productivity and quality targets on a recurring (hourly\-rated) basis. * Communicate clearly with the project team on recurring quality trends, ambiguous audio, or edge cases. **Required Qualifications** * Native or near\-native fluency in the assigned language (reading, writing, and listening comprehension), and strong working fluency in English where the role involves an English pairing. * Demonstrated experience in transcription, translation, captioning, localization, or linguistic QA. * Strong attention to detail and ability to consistently apply style/formatting guidelines. * Comfortable working with audio review tools and standard transcription/QA software (training provided as needed). * Reliable home office setup with a quiet work environment and stable internet connection (remote, US\-based engagement). * For language pair roles: fluency in both the main and secondary language listed for that role. **Preferred Qualifications** * Prior experience specifically in transcription QA (rather than first\-pass transcription). * Familiarity with linguistic annotation or transliteration conventions for the assigned language. * Experience working on large\-scale, high\-volume linguistic data projects. **Languages \— Single Language (paired with English)** Below is the full list of languages in scope for this role (each paired with English).
