DESCRIPTION

# Simplified Chinese Audio Transcript Editor (AI Training) ## About the Role What if your native Simplified Chinese and meticulous listening skills could directly shape how AI understands spoken language for over a billion people? We're looking for Audio Transcript Editors in Sydney to clean up, correct, and polish audio transcripts — ensuring every word, character, and timestamp is accurate. Sydney's vibrant and highly skilled Mandarin-speaking community is a perfect fit for this kind of precision language work. You'll listen to audio recordings, compare them against existing transcripts, and make the word-level corrections that teach AI systems to truly understand spoken Chinese — meaningful, flexible work that you can do entirely on your own schedule. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience required — just native-level Simplified Chinese, exceptional listening skills, and a commitment to accuracy. - **Organization**: Alignerr - **Type**: Hourly Contract - **Location**: Remote - **Commitment**: 10–40 hours/week ## What You'll Do * Listen to audio recordings and compare them against existing transcripts in Simplified Chinese * Correct errors in transcription — including wrong characters, missing words, misheard phrases, and punctuation issues * Ensure word-level accuracy and verify exact timing and alignment of transcript segments * Follow detailed style and formatting guidelines consistently across all tasks * Flag audio quality issues, ambiguous speech, or segments that require further review * Maintain high accuracy and consistency across large volumes of transcript data * Work independently on task-based assignments at your own pace and on your own schedule ## Who You Are * Native or near-native proficiency in Simplified Chinese — reading, writing, and listening * Exceptional listening skills with the ability to parse speech clearly, even in challenging audio conditions * Extremely detail-oriented with a methodical, patient approach to repetitive precision work * Comfortable working with word-level accuracy and exact timing or timestamps * Able to follow structured, detailed style and formatting guidelines with consistency * Self-motivated and reliable when working independently * No prior AI or tech experience required ## Nice to Have * Experience as a transcriptionist, court reporter, or stenographer * Background in subtitle editing, closed-captioning, or dubbing * Linguistics, phonetics, or language studies education * Prior work with annotation platforms, data labeling tools, or speech-to-text systems * Familiarity with audio editing software or transcript alignment tools * Experience working with multiple Chinese dialects or regional accents ## Why Join Us * Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs * Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you * Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work * Contribute to AI development that directly improves how technology understands spoken Chinese * Develop and sharpen highly marketable transcription and annotation skills * Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
