About the Role:
The role is for a Japanese speaker to take those machine translations and rewrite them so they sound completely natural and local — as if a Japanese sports content creator wrote them originally. It is not word-for-word translation. The goal is content that feels personal, local to Japan, not like a translated document.
Language: Japanese
Location: Remote
Key Responsibilities
Rewrite AI-translated sports content (reels, captions, articles, prediction cards) into natural, sounding Japanese.
Make the writing feel as if it was created for local Japanese fans (not translated from English).
Use short, spoken-style sentences for video/social content that match the energy of a sports voiceover.
Assess machine translations using a simple checklist (flow, tone, meaning, length).
Review recorded audio and reels for pronunciation, pacing, and authenticity.
Identify correct local sports terminology, slang, and fan expressions (instead of literal translations).
Give concise notes on anything unclear, incorrect, or unnatural in the AI translation.
Required Skills & Qualifications
Japanese speaker with Japanese nationality or residency + current, genuine understanding of how people in Japan actually speak and write.
Strong written English (to understand the original source content accurately).
Comfortable writing in a casual, social-media / voiceover style (not formal or academic).
Strong attention to detail when reviewing audio and giving constructive feedback.
Open to graduates and graduate students — no specific degree required.
Nice to Have
Good knowledge of football.
Experience with sports betting or prediction-related content.
Experience recording or reviewing voiceover/audio.
Background in translation, localisation, copywriting, or social media content creation.
Work arrangement
No
