What if your native command of Peninsular Spanish could directly shape how AI understands real human conversation? We're looking for detail-oriented transcriptionists with native-level Spain Spanish fluency — based in New York — to produce precise, high-quality transcriptions of spoken Spanish audio, helping build the datasets that teach AI systems to truly listen.

New York's vibrant Spanish-speaking community makes it an ideal place to find the sharp ears and cultural fluency this work demands. You'll tackle real-world audio featuring crosstalk, multiple speakers, background noise, and natural speech patterns. No prior AI experience needed.

  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
What You'll Do
  • Listen to audio recordings in Peninsular Spanish and produce accurate, verbatim transcriptions following detailed style and formatting guidelines

  • Accurately identify and differentiate between multiple speakers within a single recording
  • Apply consistent formatting conventions for timestamps, speaker labels, non-verbal sounds, and unclear segments
  • Flag audio segments that are unintelligible or ambiguous, following established protocolsli>
  • Maintain a high standard of accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail across all assignments
  • Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule
Who You Are
  • Native or near-native speaker of Spain Spanish (Peninsular Spanish) — with an intuitive command of Castilian vocabulary, expressions, accents, and speech patterns
  • Exceptional listening skills with an ear for subtlety — you catch what others miss
  • Comfortable working with imperfect audio: background noise, fast speech, interruptions, and overlapping dialogue don't throw you off
  • Naturally detail-oriented with a methodical, patient approach to repetitive work
  • Able to follow detailed style guides and formatting rules with precision and consistency
  • Strong written skills in Spanish — your transcriptions read cleanly and accurately
  • Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
  • No prior AI or tech experience required
Nice to Have
  • Professional experience as a transcriptionist, court reporter, or stenographer
  • Background in subtitle creation, closed-captioning editing, or media post-production
  • Training or experience in linguistics, phonetics, or language documentation
  • Prior work with annotation platforms, data labeling tools, or AI training workflows
  • Familiarity with different regional accents and dialects within Spain
  • Experience handling specialised or technical audio content
