Opportunity brief
About the role
You'll listen to audio and analyze the transcript based on guidelines - writing in lowercase, adding appropriate tags for filled pauses and backchannels, catching mis-transcriptions, and making sure every word is transcribed correctly.
The work is detail-heavy and quiet. If you like careful, focused tasks and have a good ear for language, it's a strong fit.
This is a fully remote role.
What you'll be doing:
Listening to audio and checking the transcript against what's actually spoken
- Correcting missing or extra words and transcription errors
- Applying detailed annotation guidelines consistently across large volumes of work
- Flagging unclear audio, edge cases, and anything the guidelines don't cover
What you'll need:
- A laptop or desktop computer. This work can't be done on a phone or tablet.
- Headphones and a quiet environment. You'll be listening closely to short segments of speech, often repeatedly.
- Strong English writing and comprehension. You should be comfortable reading detailed guidelines and picking up on subtle differences in wording.
