What I'm looking for

I seek remote-friendly roles in translation/localisation or language-technology where I can apply CAT tools, Git and open-source experience to technical projects and grow professionally.

I am a motivated Translation and Interpreting student with a strong command of English and advanced technical literacy, focused on software localisation, subtitling and language-technology projects.

I have contributed to open source projects such as OpenWRT, PipeWire and PulseAudio, released my own projects, and completed freelance translation and subtitle work—experiences that enable accurate translation of technical documents and guides.

I work well independently and remotely, bringing proficiency with CAT tools, Git, Linux and scripting, strong communication, and a proactive problem-solving mindset to translation and localisation teams.
