What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote role where I can evaluate, annotate, and QA Indonesian language data for AI (text and speech). I want to work with strict guidelines and accuracy/safety checks to improve model performance with culturally relevant outputs.

I’m a detail-oriented Indonesian language professional with a Bachelor’s in English Literature and 4+ years of experience in translation, proofreading, and AI data annotation. I bring native Indonesian fluency (EYD/PUEBI) plus advanced English proficiency to every quality check I perform.

In my remote AI Voice Trainer role (Bahasa Indonesia), I evaluated, annotated, and validated Indonesian voice datasets to train and optimize Text-to-Speech (TTS) and Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models. I assess phonetic accuracy, intonation, dialect, and emotional expression, and I run pairwise comparisons between audio samples to identify articulation errors, background noise, and syntactic distortions.

As a remote Language Data Evaluator, Proofreader & Translator, I conduct rigorous data evaluation and quality assurance on high-volume Indonesian text datasets to improve semantic accuracy and localized relevance. I also handle precise annotation, editing, and error tagging under strict publishing and regulatory frameworks (e.g., Scopus and SINTA 2 journals), using CAT (Computer-Assisted Translation) tools for efficient categorization, segmentation, and preprocessing.

I also build quality through structured linguistic work—side-by-side comparative analyses, transcription corrections, and feedback aligned with global AI style guides. My data preprocessing and textual evaluation capabilities are demonstrated through verified scientific-indexed publication work, including a case study published on a SINTA 2 accredited journal.
