• Strong understanding of Vietnamese nuances, regional variations, register, and context-appropriate usage.
• Professional fluency in English.
• Interest in AI and LLM-driven language technologies (preferred but not required).
• Excellent attention to detail and ability to spot subtle errors or unnatural phrasing.
• Clear communication skills and experience working in distributed, remote teams.

• Work on high-impact projects that directly support the development of advanced AI systems.
