Job Description
About Welo Data
Welo Data is seeking a detail-oriented Arabic (Modern Standard) speaker to join a high-impact transcription project. This isn't just about speed-typing; it’s about capturing the nuance, emotion, and cultural context that makes AI truly "human." Your mission will be to act as the human bridge between spoken Arabic and digital intelligence, ensuring every word is transcribed with precision and every emotion is tagged with accuracy.
Why This Project Stands Out
- More Than Transcription: You will be a Metadata Specialist, adding emotional tags and contextual cues that power the next generation of AI.
- Total Flexibility: Work where you want, when you want, with a 10–15 hour weekly commitment.
- Competitive Pay: Welo Data values your linguistic expertise and cultural depth.
- Impactful Work: Your transcriptions will directly influence how AI models understand and respond to the Arabic-speaking world.
Project Details
- Rate: $20/hour
- Schedule: Flexible, 10-20 hours per week
- Location: 100% Remote (targeting candidates in Egypt, UAE, Saudi Arabia)
What You Will Do as an Arabic Transcription Specialist
- Precision Transcription: Listen to audio and provide high-fidelity text in Modern Standard Arabic.
- Timestamping & Alignment: Ensure every word perfectly matches its audio moment.
- Emotional & Contextual Tagging: Identify and label emotions, sarcasm, and cultural cues within audio recordings.
- Quality Assurance: Ensure the final output is culturally relevant and reflects the intended tone and meaning.
Requirements
- Linguistic Mastery: Native or Professional (C1/C2) level in Arabic (MSA) with strong English skills.
- Nuance Detection: Ability to differentiate between dialects, emotional tones, and subtle contextual cues.
- Tech-Savvy: Familiarity with transcription tools, timestamping, and metadata tagging.
- Detail-Obsessed: A commitment to delivering error-free, high-quality data under project deadlines.
