About Veroa

Veroa is building the AI-native workforce and learning platform for the next generation of professional services.

We believe AI won't replace exceptional professionals. It will amplify them. Our mission is to help organizations identify, develop, and hire exceptional talent globally while giving professionals better ways to continuously learn, build skills, and grow in an AI-driven economy.

We're an early-stage, fast-growing company with a globally distributed team. We work with skilled professionals across a range of disciplines to deliver high-quality services and support emerging technologies.

About the Role

We're looking for an experienced Welsh Transcriber to support a conversational audio transcription project developing voice datasets for AI labs.

You'll review and correct automatic speech recognition (ASR) transcripts of Welsh-language audio, ensuring the final output meets a word error rate (WER) of 5% or less.

This is a verbatim transcription project, not standard subtitling. Accuracy, consistency, and attention to linguistic detail are essential.

What You’ll Do

As a Welsh Transcriber, you will correct automatic speech recognition (ASR) drafts of Welsh conversational audio so final transcripts meet a word error rate of 5% or less. This builds frontier voice datasets for AI labs. Final delivery is JSON. This is verbatim transcription, not standard subtitling.

• Listen to Welsh conversational audio and correct the ASR draft verbatim, keeping fillers, repetitions, stuttering, false starts, incomplete sentences, dialect, and backchannels. Do not normalize grammar.
• Keep English speech in English. Do not translate it into Welsh. Correct ASR mistranslations, including segments where ASR converted English into Welsh.
• Label speakers and correct start and end timestamps to 0.01 seconds. Split segments at natural pauses, keeping them within 30 seconds where possible.
• Deliver JSON segments with speaker, start, end, and text, without tags like (laughter) or (cough).
• Human-review every file in full. ASR is only a starting point.

Who You Are: What Makes You a Great Fit

Core Must-Haves

• Fluent in Welsh, with excellent listening comprehension and written language skills.
• Previous professional transcription experience.
• Strong attention to detail, particularly with regional accents, dialects, and fast conversational speech.
• Comfortable following detailed transcription and formatting guidelines.
• Able to work independently and consistently meet quality and delivery requirements.
• Available to work an 8-hour weekday schedule during the anticipated project period.
• Comfortable using digital transcription tools and working with structured files.

Bonus Points

• ASR Correction: Experience reviewing and correcting automatic speech recognition drafts is helpful, but not required.
• Technical Exposure: Familiarity with speaker labeling, timestamp alignment, or JSON tools is helpful, but not required.
• Domain Knowledge: Background in linguistic data, AI training datasets, or professional transcription for speech technology is helpful, but not required.

Life at Veroa

• Growth & Impact: High visibility, fast-paced learning, and ownership over real client outcomes.
• Modern Tooling: We embrace modern technology, AI workflows, and smart automation internally and externally.
• Flexibility & Autonomy: Work with a team that values output, creative problem-solving, and work-life harmony.
