About the Role What if your ear for Italian and obsession with precision could directly shape how AI understands spoken language? We're looking for detail-oriented Italian Audio Transcript Editors to clean up, correct, and perfect audio transcripts — ensuring every word, timestamp, and formatting detail is exactly right. This is hands-on, deeply focused work that sits at the intersection of language, audio, and AI. You'll listen carefully, compare what you hear against existing transcripts, and make word-level corrections that teach AI systems to process Italian speech with real accuracy. If you take pride in getting every syllable right, this role was made for you. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role.
