# Spanish (Spain) Audio Transcriptionist (AI Training) ## About the Role What if your native command of Peninsular Spanish could directly shape how AI understands real human conversation? We're looking for detail-oriented transcriptionists with native-level Spain Spanish fluency — based in New York — to produce precise, high-quality transcriptions of spoken Spanish audio, helping build the datasets that teach AI systems to truly listen. New York's vibrant Spanish-speaking community makes it an ideal place to find the sharp ears and cultural fluency this work demands. You'll tackle real-world audio featuring crosstalk, multiple speakers, background noise, and natural speech patterns. No prior AI experience needed. - **Organization**: Alignerr - **Type**: Hourly Contract - **Location**: Remote - **Commitment**: 10–40 hours/week ## What You'll Do * Listen to audio recordings in Peninsular Spanish and produce accurate, verbatim transcriptions following detailed style and formatting guidelines * Handle challenging audio scenarios — including crosstalk, overlapping speakers, filled pauses (e.g., "eh", "mm"), background noise, and varying audio quality * Accurately identify and differentiate between multiple speakers within a single recording * Apply consistent formatting conventions for timestamps, speaker labels, non-verbal sounds, and unclear segments * Flag audio segments that are unintelligible or ambiguous, following established protocols * Maintain a high standard of accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail across all assignments * Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule ## Who You Are * **Native or near-native speaker of Spain Spanish (Peninsular Spanish)** — with an intuitive command of Castilian vocabulary, expressions, accents, and speech patterns * Exceptional listening skills with an ear for subtlety — you catch what others miss * Comfortable working with imperfect audio: background noise, fast speech, interruptions, and overlapping dialogue don't throw you off * Naturally detail-oriented with a methodical, patient approach to repetitive work * Able to follow detailed style guides and formatting rules with precision and consistency * Strong written skills in Spanish — your transcriptions read cleanly and accurately * Self-motivated and reliable when working independently * No prior AI or tech experience required ## Nice to Have * Professional experience as a transcriptionist, court reporter, or stenographer * Background in subtitle creation, closed-captioning editing, or media post-production * Training or experience in linguistics, phonetics, or language documentation * Prior work with annotation platforms, data labeling tools, or AI training workflows * Familiarity with different regional accents and dialects within Spain * Experience handling specialised or technical audio content ## 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 * Your linguistic expertise directly shapes how AI understands spoken Spanish * Develop and sharpen transcription skills on diverse, real-world audio * Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
