Job Opportunity

Freelancer Monolingual Data Labeling Contributor. We are currently seeking freelancers to assist with monolingual data labeling tasks. This is not a translation or review project, and no professional translation experience or certification is required.

Language: ARABIC

Dialect: Gulf, Hijazi, Najdi. Good knowledge of English is required.

Role

In the first stage, you will be asked to generate short text samples in your native language, including emails, SMS/text messages, social media posts. These texts will be created based on specific guidelines we will provide. The goal is to simulate how an everyday user would naturally write messages in various digital formats.

A second stage will follow, where we need post-editors to proofread and adapt/refine the AI-generated content so it reads as an authentic reflection of how ordinary users communicate in their language locally (colloquial, adapted properly to linguistic conventions).

Requirements

• Native-level fluency in the target language, living in-country
• Ability to follow detailed instructions
• Creativity and accuracy in producing realistic, everyday content

Additional Information

• A short test will be required before onboarding.
• The project duration is estimated to be 1 to 3 months.

If you're interested in contributing to this project, we’d love to hear from you! Please apply with the English-language version of your Resume/C.V. Please note that this is a remote, freelance contractor position. Please also note that we only use Tipalti to submit payments to our contractors, so an active Tipalti account will be a precondition to work with LILT.

Our Story

Our founders, Spence and John, met at Google working on Google Translate. As researchers at Stanford and Berkeley, they both worked on language technology to make information accessible to everyone. While together at Google, they were amazed to learn that Google Translate wasn’t used for enterprise products and services inside the company. The quality just wasn’t there. So they set out to build something better. LILT was born.

LILT has been a machine learning company since its founding in 2015. At the time, machine translation didn’t meet the quality standard for enterprise translations, so LILT assembled a cutting-edge research team tasked with closing that gap. While meeting customer demand for translation services, LILT has prioritized investments in Large Language Models, human-in-the-loop systems, and now agentic AI. With AI innovation accelerating and enterprise demand growing, the next phase of LILT’s journey is just beginning.
