What I'm looking for

I want to build and evaluate AI-driven language workflows—AI data annotation, privacy-aware localization, and accessibility-focused product improvements—where my linguistics depth turns into reliable, natural language outcomes for Indonesian users.

I’m an AI data & evaluation specialist with a decade of experience, grounded in linguistics and built to make language solutions feel natural. I constantly evolve my workflow by integrating AI training and evaluation, especially where language, technology, and creativity intersect.

After 10 years mastering linguistics, I founded TARA (Teduh Aksara) as Founder and AI Orchestrator, collaborating with AI to turn complex ideas into a live platform. TARA is a serene, AI-powered grammar correction tool for Indonesian and its local languages, and my mission is to empower Indonesia through tech-driven education.

Professionally, I’ve collected and validated high-quality Indonesian speech datasets, performed linguistic checks on transcriptions and annotations, and flagged anomalies to improve dataset quality. I also deliver localization work with Machine Translation Post-Editing (MTPE), linguistic QA for subtitles (SDH & non-SDH), and end-to-end translation project management—always aiming for contextual accuracy, accessibility, and consistency.
