What I'm looking for

I am seeking Content Strategist roles that leverage deep philological expertise in AI alignment, semantic validation, and dataset grounding for the Georgian language (Native), with opportunities to influence safety and QA practices in low-resource language environments.

I am a Senior Content Strategist and Semantic Architect with over 25 years of experience in structuring high-complexity linguistic data. I leverage deep philological expertise to develop content strategies that ensure semantic precision, cultural grounding, and factual accuracy for Low-Resource Languages (LRL).

My work centers on human-in-the-loop processes for AI alignment and safety, including RLHF, Chain of Thought reasoning, semantic grounding to prevent LLM hallucinations, and adversarial red-teaming focused on regional misinformation risks.

I have managed the publication and semantic validation of 400+ titles, led dataset grounding for the Georgian low-resource language, and apply deep philological expertise to refine AI training data and quality assurance workflows.

Selected Semantic Projects:

Ludwig Wittgenstein’s 'Philosophical Investigations': Lead Semantic Architect for German-to-Georgian alignment of analytic concepts.
Robert D. Putnam’s 'Making Democracy Work': Strategic oversight of political science discourse and terminological precision.
E.H. Gombrich’s 'The Story of Art': Validation of art-historical terminology and semantic consistency across English and Georgian editions.
