  • Follow quality and annotation guidelines carefully
  • Communicate and collaborate with the Project Manager
  • Complete assigned tasks within the given timeline

What do I need?

  • Fluent in German and English (required)
  • Comfortable reading and writing in both German and English
  • Strong listening skills with the ability to understand various German accents and speaking styles
  • Should have B1/B2 proficiency or higher, with strong confidence in writing, listening, and reading
  • Detail-oriented and patient, able to maintain at least 95% accuracy
  • Willing to ask questions when unsure

Project Details

  • Duration: 2 months
  • Time commitment: Around 4–7 hours per day
  • Onboarding Training: Mandatory (TBD, during office hours 9am–6pm GMT +8)
  • Working hours: Flexible (tasks can be completed anytime in the given deadline)
  • Project period: March – April 2026
  • Work remotely!
  • Be part of an AI project representing real German speech and accents
