What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented AI Data & Speech Quality Specialist with over three years of hands-on experience reviewing, correcting, and validating machine-generated audio segmentations and transcriptions for speech-recognition systems.
I have consistently met strict quality benchmarks by following complex annotation guidelines and performing end-to-end quality checks across varied accents and audio conditions, ensuring linguistic accuracy, semantic integrity, and formatting compliance.
I work effectively in fast-paced, remote environments, maintaining strong performance metrics while operating independently on flexible schedules, and I bring a quality mindset with strict adherence to project guidelines.
My background includes a Bachelor's Degree in Communication (Linguistics) from the University of Nairobi, with focused skills in listening comprehension, phonetics, written accuracy, and digital workflows that support scalable model training and high-precision tasks.
