In short
This freelance remote role at micro1 asks you to listen to Japanese audio and judge how natural the speech sounds. Your knowledge of Japanese matters most, and no prior AI experience is needed. It may suit you if you speak Japanese at a native level and enjoy careful listening work that helps AI systems learn the language.
What you will do
- Listen to Japanese audio clips and judge how native and fluent the speaker or the AI output sounds.
- Check pronunciation, intonation, and how authentic the language feels, following set guidelines.
- Write short, clear feedback in English that explains the main language points behind each judgment.
- Ask project coordinators for clarification when requirements or language content are unclear.
- Finish your assigned audio reviews on time while keeping a high quality standard.
What you need to apply
- Native-level proficiency in Japanese, with clear pronunciation and natural fluency.
- At least B2 level in English, especially for writing and speaking.
- Strong attention to detail and the ability to explain small differences in language clearly.
- Background in linguistics, phonetics, voice work, audio, or teaching is an asset, and experience with audio analysis or transcription is highly valued.
Who can apply
The role is open worldwide, since no country restriction is stated in the posting. It is a freelance contract, and you work remotely.
My tip
Show your attention to detail in your application by giving a clear example of a time you explained a subtle language difference. We recommend writing your sample feedback in clear, simple English, because written communication is central to this job.
