Remote contract or long-term freelance roles centered on Spanish language quality: game localization QA, linguistic QA, LLM/AI language evaluation, or EN>ES legal translation. I prefer stable, recurring work with clear guidelines and quality criteria. Based in Mexico, flexible across time zones, open to part-time that can grow.

What I'm looking for
I'm a native Latin American Spanish linguist based in Mexico, working across game localization QA, AI language evaluation, and legal translation, with professional proficiency in European Spanish.
At Kinsha Co., Ltd. (Tokyo), I performed linguistic QA on the Japanese-to-European Spanish localization of Let It Die: Inferno and was credited in its official staff roll. I checked strings for accuracy, consistency, and cultural relevance, ran UI and layout checks, reported defects with clear reproduction steps, and regression-tested fixes.
Since 2025, I've evaluated EN–ES LLM outputs, specializing in Latin American Spanish, giving structured feedback on fluency, instruction-following, and cultural appropriateness. I also translate legal documents from English into Spanish on a project basis and hold a legal translation certificate (IFIJUM) and a Cambridge C1 Advanced in English, and I'm studying Japanese (JLPT N4).
I'm looking for remote contract roles in localization QA, linguistic evaluation, or legal and technical translation, where precision and consistent terminology matter.
