Spanish (Spain) Audio Transcript Editor

About the Role

What if your native ear for Castilian Spanish could directly shape how AI understands spoken language? We're looking for detail-oriented transcript editors in London — particularly those with deep familiarity with Spain's Spanish dialect — to review, correct, and refine audio transcripts that will power the next generation of AI speech systems.

London's large and diverse Spanish-speaking community includes a significant number of native Castilian speakers. If you have a sharp ear, a love of linguistic precision, and the patience for detailed, methodical work, this role was built for you.
