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

Evaluate, edit and annotate Spanish-language model outputs across translation, summarization, dialogue and grammar tasks. The work also involves identifying linguistic gaps and giving researchers precise feedback on grammar, meaning, style and regional usage.

The work

You will review Spanish text generated by a large language model, judge its accuracy and naturalness, and edit or rewrite weak outputs. Tasks may cover translation, summarization, dialogue and grammar correction, as well as annotation of grammatical, syntactic and semantic features. You will document recurring errors and language gaps so researchers can use the findings to improve model training.

What the screening is likely to test

Native or near-native fluency in Spanish is sought, together with professional experience in Spanish translation, editing, linguistic annotation or NLP data work. Expect follow-up questions about specific projects, difficult linguistic decisions, regional variation and how you distinguish factual, semantic, grammatical and stylistic errors. Interest in AI and LLM-driven language technologies is preferred but not required.

Practical details

The role is intended for people comfortable working with distributed, remote teams and communicating detailed judgments clearly. The listing does not state whether the workflow is fully asynchronous or specify typical weekly hours, so confirm scheduling expectations, project duration and any required overlap during the process.

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 verifies that your claimed experience involved substantive Spanish-language judgment rather than general content review or informal bilingual work.
A strong answer: Give named task types, your responsibilities, the kinds of Spanish content involved and how quality was reviewed. Include a concrete example of a difficult judgment or error pattern you handled.
Where people lose it: Candidates lose points by listing job titles without explaining what Spanish text they actually evaluated, edited or annotated.
