About The Role

What if your fluency in Simplified Chinese and your ear for detail could directly shape how AI understands spoken Mandarin for hundreds of millions of people worldwide? We're looking for Audio Transcript Editors in Kuala Lumpur to clean up, correct, and polish audio transcripts — ensuring every character, phrase, and timestamp is precisely right.

Kuala Lumpur's large and highly educated Mandarin-speaking community makes it a natural home for this work. You'll listen closely, compare audio against existing transcripts, and make word-level corrections that teach AI systems to truly understand spoken Chinese — meaningful, skills-driven work that fits around your schedule.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience required — just native-level Simplified Chinese, excellent listening skills, and a commitment to precision.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
  • Listen to audio recordings and compare them against existing transcripts in Simplified Chinese
  • Correct errors in transcription — including wrong characters, missing words, misheard phrases, and punctuation issues
  • Ensure word-level accuracy and verify exact timing and alignment of transcript segments
  • Follow detailed style and formatting guidelines consistently across all tasks
  • Flag audio quality issues, ambiguous speech, or segments that require further review
  • Maintain high accuracy and consistency across large volumes of transcript data
  • Work independently on task-based assignments at your own pace and on your own schedule
Who You Are
  • Native or near-native proficiency in Simplified Chinese — reading, writing, and listening
  • Exceptional listening skills with the ability to parse speech clearly, even in challenging audio conditions
  • Extremely detail-oriented with a methodical, patient approach to repetitive precision work
  • Comfortable working with word-level accuracy and exact timing or timestamps
  • Able to follow structured, detailed style and formatting guidelines with consistency
  • Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
  • No prior AI or tech experience required
Nice to Have
  • Experience as a transcriptionist, court reporter, or stenographer
  • Background in subtitle editing, closed-captioning, or dubbing
  • Linguistics, phonetics, or language studies education
  • Prior work with annotation platforms, data labeling tools, or speech-to-text systems
  • Familiarity with audio editing software or transcript alignment tools
  • Experience across multiple Chinese dialects or regional accents including Malaysian Mandarin
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 directly improves how technology understands spoken Chinese
