[Remote] Freelance Project Verbatim Transcription Opportunity

Note: The job is a remote job and is open to candidates in USA. Uber AI Solutions is seeking detail-oriented transcription specialists to support a large-scale generative AI training program. In this engagement, you will transcribe and annotate complex audio files with verbatim accuracy, capturing every utterance, stutter, and linguistic nuance exactly as spoken.


Responsibilities

  • Verbatim transcription: Transcribe audio with 98% accuracy, capturing every disfluency, filler word (um, uh), false start, and stutter exactly as heard
  • Precision timestamping: Align text segments to the audio waveform with millisecond precision (max gap <500ms)
  • Speaker identification: Accurately identify and label speakers in multi-speaker audio files (2–8 interlocutors)
  • Tagging and annotation: Apply correct tags for non-speech events—like (laughs) or (applause)—and unintelligible segments

Skills

  • Native-level fluency: You must be a native speaker of the assigned language with a deep understanding of cultural nuances and regional accents
  • Attention to detail: You can distinguish between 'clean' speech and 'verbatim' speech (e.g., typing 'I- I- I don't know' instead of 'I don't know')
  • Tech savvy: You are comfortable learning new web-based annotation tools
