What if your native command of Japanese and your ear for precision could directly improve how AI understands and processes spoken language?

This is structured, meaningful work at the intersection of language and technology. You'll listen carefully, catch what others miss, and help build the high-quality datasets that teach AI systems to truly understand Japanese speech.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience needed — just native-level Japanese, strong listening skills, and a commitment to word-level accuracy.
