What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my linguistic expertise in AI development, with a focus on collaborative and innovative environments.

I am currently pursuing my M.Phil in Applied Linguistics while working at Transsion Holdings as an AI Linguist Data Specialist. My role involves creating training and testing data for the development of AI voice assistants, focusing on Urdu and Punjabi languages. I have honed my skills in data annotation, evaluation of AI responses, and OCR normalization, contributing significantly to the quality of linguistic data used for AI model improvement.

In addition to my work at Transsion, I have experience as a Research Assistant specializing in Computational Linguistics and Corpus Linguistics. I have developed corpora, performed linguistic annotation, and utilized various corpus tools such as AntConc and Sketch Engine. My research has focused on underrepresented languages, enhancing corpus-based studies through computational techniques. I am passionate about advancing AI technologies and ensuring high-quality linguistic data for diverse applications.
