Workload: ~15h/week
Engagement: Project-based
Location: Worldwide
Field: Languages

Evaluate, edit and annotate model-generated Spanish for linguistic accuracy and cultural fit in Chile. The work covers translation, summarization, dialogue, grammar correction and detailed analysis of model errors.

The work

You will review LLM-generated content in Spanish (Chile), judge its accuracy and naturalness, and edit or rewrite outputs that do not meet Chilean linguistic and cultural standards. Tasks may include translation, summarization, dialogue and grammar correction, along with annotation of grammatical, syntactic and semantic features.

What the platform screens for

The screen is likely to test native or near-native fluency in Spanish (Chile), professional fluency in English, and professional experience in translation, editing, linguistic annotation or Spanish-language NLP data work. Expect follow-up on Chilean register, regional variation, subtle unnatural phrasing and differences from other Latin American and Peninsular Spanish varieties. Interest in AI and LLM-driven language technologies is preferred but not required.

Evaluation judgment

Strong candidates can apply a consistent rubric, distinguish objective errors from defensible stylistic variation, and explain model failures precisely enough to support training improvements. Useful feedback identifies the affected span, classifies the issue, explains why it matters in Chilean context and proposes a better rendering without erasing valid regional variation.

Logistics

The work is remote and distributed. The listing does not specify whether all tasks are asynchronous or state typical weekly hours, so candidates should be ready to describe their realistic availability and ability to collaborate across a remote team.

Interview prep — 10 questions

Matched to what this platform's screening actually measures. Answer each out loud in 60–90 seconds: claim → concrete example → implication.

What it tests: This tests whether your claimed experience involved accountable language decisions, defined deliverables and quality review rather than informal bilingual work.
A strong answer: Give one or two verifiable projects, naming the content type, your exact responsibilities, the variety of Spanish involved and how quality was assessed. Clarify whether you translated, edited, annotated, adjudicated or wrote guidelines.
Where people lose it: Candidates lose points by listing broad language experience without separating paid professional work from study, casual translation or general content writing.
