EthiopiaWhat I'm looking for
At Global Language Solutions & Remote Freelance Platforms, I translate, edit, and proofread technical manuals, IT documentation, legal contracts, and business presentations from Japanese into English and Amharic.
I use SDL Trados and MemoQ to maintain translation memories and terminology glossaries, helping ensure consistency across long-term projects. I also perform quality checks on localized software interfaces, video scripts, and digital assets.
Previously, at Horizon Media & Technology Solutions, I translated technical guides, IT documentation, and video subtitles into Amharic, and adapted marketing and video content for local distribution.
On a Japanese-to-English technical localization project, I translated more than 120,000 words of IT documentation, architecture guides, and software manuals. I also provided time-synced Japanese-to-English subtitles and transcription for animated films and promotional videos.
