Job description

Swahili Language Specialist - Freelance AI Trainer Project

World Wide - Remote

Are you a Swahili language expert eager to shape the future of AI? Large‑scale language models are evolving from clever chatbots into powerful engines of linguistic discovery. With high‑quality training data, tomorrow’s AI can democratize world‑class education, keep pace with cutting‑edge research, and streamline communication for Swahili speakers everywhere. That training data begins with you—we need your expertise to help power the next generation of AI.

We’re looking for Swahili language specialists who live and breathe the intricacies of Swahili grammar, syntax, morphology, semantics, phonetics, and pragmatics. You’ll challenge advanced language models on topics like noun classes, verb conjugation, sentence structure, idiomatic expressions, tone and pronunciation, and cultural nuances—documenting every failure mode so we can harden model reasoning.

On a typical day, you will converse with the model on language scenarios, verify factual accuracy and logical soundness, capture reproducible error traces, and suggest improvements to our prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.

A master’s or PhD in Swahili language, linguistics, or a closely related field is ideal; peer‑reviewed publications, translation experience, or hands-on linguistic analysis projects signal fit. Clear, metacognitive communication—“showing your work”—is essential.

Ready to turn your Swahili language expertise into the knowledge base for tomorrow’s AI? Apply today and start teaching the model that will teach the world.

We offer a pay range of $6-to-$65 per hour, with the exact rate determined after evaluating your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above. As a contractor you’ll supply a secure computer and high‑speed internet; company‑sponsored benefits such as health insurance and PTO do not apply.

Employment type: Contract
Workplace type: Remote
Seniority level: Mid‑Senior Level
