Arabic Translator | Remote Position

Transcription Reviewer – Short-Term Project

Project Overview

We are looking for a detail-oriented Arabic speaker for a short-term, flexible transcription review project. The selected reviewer will review and correct AI-generated audio transcripts to ensure accuracy, strict verbatim precision, and high-quality linguistic tagging.

Workload

• Approximately 20 to 40 hours
• 100% quality review of the assigned audio
• Expected review ratio: approximately 2 hours of work for every 1 hour of audio
• Short-term project with a flexible schedule
• Reviewers must be able to complete the assigned workload within the project timeline

Responsibilities

• Review AI-generated transcripts: Verify and correct machine-generated transcripts by carefully comparing them with the original audio.
• Apply strict verbatim transcription: Capture speech exactly as spoken, including disfluencies such as “um” and “uh,” false starts, repetitions, and word fragments (for example, “I- I woke up”).
• Add timestamps and linguistic tags: Accurately mark the beginning and end of speech segments and identify non-verbal sounds or emotions using the required bracketed tags, such as [laugh] and [breath].
• Follow formatting guidelines: Apply all required spelling, punctuation, segmentation, and stylistic rules. For example, numbers and currencies must be written as verbalized, so “$100” would be transcribed as “one hundred dollars.”
• Perform quality control: Ensure that every reviewed transcript meets the project’s accuracy and formatting standards before submission.

Requirements

• Language: You must be an Arabic speaker.
• Current residency: You must currently reside in Khaliji. We will not consider applications from candidates living outside this country.
• Relevant experience: Previous experience in verbatim transcription, subtitling, linguistic annotation, or transcript quality review is highly preferred.
• Strong attention to detail: Ability to listen carefully and consistently follow detailed transcription, punctuation, tagging, and formatting guidelines.
• Technical proficiency: Comfortable using web-based transcription platforms and AI-review tools.
• Availability: Able to complete approximately 40 hours of project work within the required timeline.
• Confidentiality and security: Willing to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) and comply with strict data privacy and information-security requirements.

Rate: $36.00 per audio hour
