Melisa Aumasque
@melisaaumasque
I evaluate multilingual language data, localization, and LLM outputs across Spanish, Portuguese, and English.
BrazilWhat I'm looking for
I've built and led M.A Language Centre in São Paulo since 2011, evaluating and correcting thousands of hours of English, Spanish, and Portuguese text and speech data. I develop localized curricula that account for regional idioms, slang, grammar, and cultural context.
Previously, I sourced multilingual talent for European markets at Hunter Marshal and conducted Boolean search, profile auditing, web research, and quality-control documentation at Avature for Fortune 500 technology clients. I bring trilingual teaching, linguistic auditing, and cross-cultural evaluation to LLM training, RLHF, translation quality assurance, and prompt testing.
