Korean Audio Transcript Editor (AI Training)

About The Role
What if your ear for Korean and obsession with precision could directly shape how AI understands spoken language? We're looking for detail-oriented Korean Audio Transcript Editors in Toronto and across Canada to clean up, correct, and polish audio transcripts — ensuring every word, timestamp, and formatting detail is exactly right.
This is hands-on, focused work that sits at the intersection of language, audio, and AI. You'll listen carefully, catch what automated systems miss, and deliver transcripts that meet exacting quality standards. If you thrive on precision and take pride in getting the details right, this role is for you.
This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No prior AI experience needed — just native-level Korean, strong listening skills, and comfort following detailed guidelines.
