Myriam Reguia
@myriamreguia
Multilingual localization and language QA specialist with aeronautical and technical expertise.
What I'm looking for
I am a professional linguist specialized in localization (L10N) and language quality assurance, with hands-on experience across France, Norway, Switzerland and remote roles. I hold an EMT-labeled Master's in Science and Technical Translation and a Bachelor's in Nordic Studies.
My work spans localization, LQA, post-editing of machine translation (PEMT), transcreation, interpreting and technical translation, with additional experience in aeronautical technical writing and industrial documentation. I have used CAT tools such as RWS/SDL Trados, Phrase, Memsource and MemoQ, and contributed terminology to the IATE database.
Notable achievements include performing French language quality assurance and MT rating for Webinterpret, authoring a master thesis on STE aeronautical technical writing during a six-month Jet Aviation internship, and serving as a flight dispatcher responsible for documentation and safe, on-time departures at Swissport.
I bring strong attention to detail, cultural awareness, process orientation and resilience under pressure, and I work effectively both autonomously and in collaborative, deadline-driven environments to deliver consistent, client-focused linguistic solutions.
