# French Audio Transcriptionist (AI Training)
## About the Role
What if your ear for spoken French could directly shape how AI understands and processes real-world conversations? We're looking for detail-oriented French transcriptionists based in France to produce highly accurate transcriptions of spoken audio — helping train AI systems that millions of people will rely on.
This is hands-on, meaningful work that rewards precision and deep listening. You'll tackle real audio featuring multiple speakers, crosstalk, filled pauses, background noise, and natural conversational nuance — including the rich regional variety found across metropolitan France. If you take pride in catching every word and following exacting guidelines, this role is for you.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience needed — just native-level French, strong ears, and a commitment to quality.
- **Organization**: Alignerr
- **Type**: Hourly Contract
- **Location**: Remote
- **Commitment**: 10–40 hours/week
## What You'll Do
* Listen to French-language audio recordings and produce accurate, detailed transcriptions
* Handle challenging audio — including overlapping speakers, crosstalk, background noise, regional accents, and filled pauses (e.g., "euh", "hein", "ben")
* Identify and distinguish between multiple speakers throughout a recording
* Follow detailed style and formatting guidelines with precision and consistency
* Apply transcription conventions for non-verbal sounds, inaudible segments, and spoken disfluencies
* Maintain high accuracy and quality standards across large volumes of audio
* Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule
## Who You Are
* Native or near-native fluency in French — you catch every word, including slang, filler, and regional expressions from across France
* Exceptional listening skills with a sharp ear for nuance, tone, and subtle audio details
* Naturally detail-oriented with a consistent, methodical approach to work
* Comfortable following and applying detailed style guides and formatting rules
* Able to work with imperfect audio — background noise, low quality, or overlapping speech don't throw you off
* Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
* Strong written French skills with excellent spelling and grammar
## Nice to Have
* Professional experience as a transcriptionist, court reporter, or stenographer
* Background in subtitle creation, closed-captioning, or video annotation
* Experience with linguistics, phonetics, or language documentation
* Prior work with annotation platforms or data labeling tools
* Familiarity with French regional accents — including Parisian, Lyonnais, Marseillais, and others
* Experience in translation, localization, or editorial work
## 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
* Contribute to AI development that shapes how technology understands spoken French
* Develop and sharpen your transcription skills on diverse, real-world audio
* Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
