jayson mbakaya

I am a detail-oriented and language-focused data annotator with a strong background in transcription, proofreading, and linguistic dataset preparation. My experience includes audio transcription in both Swahili and English, and I am eager to expand my skills to new languages, contributing to multilingual AI projects. With a keen eye for detail and a commitment to delivering high-quality data, I thrive in environments that prioritize accuracy and clarity.

In my role as a Transcription Assistant at Africa AI Lab, I transcribed conversations for AI training, ensuring high linguistic accuracy and collaborating on projects aimed at enhancing the representation of African languages in AI. My freelance work with Snorkel AI involved labeling large-scale datasets and participating in quality validation with international teams. I have also interned in proofreading and content QA, where I promoted ethical data practices and enforced linguistic quality.
