What I'm looking for

I seek roles contributing to AI language development where I can apply annotation, transcription, and evaluation skills to improve model accuracy and cultural fidelity.

I am an experienced Yoruba Language AI Trainer specializing in Yoruba-English translation, annotation, and speech transcription. I focus on preparing high-quality linguistic data that helps AI systems understand Yoruba grammar, tone, and cultural nuance.

As a freelance trainer since 2023, I have annotated Yoruba text corpora, transcribed speech recordings, and reviewed AI-generated translations for accuracy. My work has strengthened datasets and improved model outputs for Yoruba language projects.

I bring strong skills in linguistic data evaluation, text annotation, labeling, and data quality review, combined with practical experience supporting AI model training. I prioritize cultural context interpretation to ensure models respect linguistic subtleties.

I am committed to advancing AI performance for African languages by delivering reliable, well-curated language resources and constructive evaluation feedback to engineering teams.
