What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote work training and improving multilingual AI and language outputs—using my translation, linguistic quality assurance, and prompt evaluation skills to ensure accurate, culturally appropriate Kinyarwanda and English.

I’m a Native Kinyarwanda language specialist with experience in translation, linguistic quality review, content creation, and AI data annotation. I’ve translated more than 200 technical, educational, and training documents between Kinyarwanda and English, and I verify grammar, syntax, punctuation, and cultural appropriateness before delivery.

I also support multilingual communication by reviewing written materials for clarity and consistency, and coordinating documentation for international teams and stakeholders. Alongside this, I produce long-form Kinyarwanda educational scripts with extensive fact-checking, and I apply skills like prompt evaluation, text editing, tone assessment, semantic analysis, and language validation to improve multilingual AI model performance.
