What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply my linguistic rigor to AI training—dataset curation, RLHF support, and prompt-quality improvements—so models achieve higher accuracy, better reasoning, and more natural language understanding, with strict editorial-level verification.

I’m a linguist and Senior Educator with over 20 years of experience in text analysis, translation, and editorial management. I bring deep expertise in Ukrainian and Russian, strong professional proficiency in English and Chinese, and a disciplined approach to linguistic precision.

In my Senior Lecturer role in Chinese (2002–2023), I delivered comprehensive language programs for 100+ students. I supervised, guided, and reviewed undergraduate term papers (50+ successful submissions), mentored academic progress, and developed curriculum materials while publishing 10+ research articles in linguistics.

As Editor-in-Chief of the All-Ukrainian OK.U Optical Magazine, I managed the full production cycle of a specialized publication—coordinating writers, designers, and contributors while enforcing strict quality control for factual accuracy and stylistic consistency. I also handled international business correspondence and contract compliance, and led digital transformation by pivoting to a digital-first format and building an active Facebook business community of 2,000+ targeted industry specialists.

I’m now channeling that same rigor into AI training and high-quality dataset curation. As an AI Data Contributor (Google Crowdsource, Level 16), I perform high-accuracy data contribution, text translation review, and complex image annotation, focusing on edge cases and labeling nuances—because better data directly improves model accuracy, reasoning, and natural language understanding.
