What I'm looking for

I’m looking for remote transcription, translation, and linguistic annotation work where accuracy, confidentiality, and fast turnaround matter—especially projects supporting AI language model training, quality assurance, and multilingual Swahili content.

I’m a detail-oriented Swahili Audio Transcriber, Translator, and Linguistic Annotation Specialist with over 2 years and 6 months of professional experience in transcription, translation, and multilingual content annotation.

I convert complex audio into accurate written transcripts with exceptional word-level accuracy, including Kenyan and Tanzanian Swahili dialect variations, Sheng interpretation, and Swahili-English code-switching. I also review and proofread outputs to ensure grammatical accuracy, consistency, and formatting standards.

In remote and client-facing roles, I’ve worked with web-based annotation platforms and variable-speed audio playback tools for AI language model training projects, contributing to quality assurance and linguistic data preparation. I’m trusted with confidential linguistic data and consistently meet strict turnaround times while maintaining high accuracy.
