Experienced Amharic language specialist focused on translation, MT post-editing, and linguistic quality assurance.
What I'm looking for
I am an Amharic language professional with over five years of hands-on experience in translation, localization, machine-translation post-editing, and linguistic quality assurance. I have delivered more than 450 projects covering legal, medical, technical, educational, and creative domains.
I specialize in evaluating and refining language outputs for accuracy, fluency, semantics, syntax, and cultural appropriateness, with work closely aligned to AI training, annotation, and evaluation workflows. I identify recurring error patterns and provide structured, actionable feedback to improve large-scale outputs.
My tool experience includes SDL Trados Studio, MemoQ, Memsource, Smartcat, and Wordfast, and I follow MTPE and QA workflows aligned with industry standards. I have worked on subtitles, transcription, technical documentation, and public-facing communications while maintaining high consistency under strict deadlines.
I hold training from Translators Without Borders in basic translation and in machine translation & post-editing, and I am committed to producing culturally accurate, grammatically precise Amharic text that supports model improvement and real-world communication needs.
