Spanish Audio Transcriptionist (Spain Spanish) – AI Training

Spanish (Spain) Audio Transcriptionist (AI Training)

About the Role

What if your deep familiarity with Peninsular Spanish — its rhythms, expressions, and regional nuance — could directly shape how AI understands real human conversation? We're looking for detail-oriented transcriptionists with native-level command of Spain Spanish to produce precise, high-quality transcriptions of spoken Spanish audio, helping build the datasets that teach AI systems to truly listen.

This role is open to native or near-native Peninsular Spanish speakers located in Mexico City. You'll tackle real-world audio featuring crosstalk, multiple speakers, background noise, and natural speech patterns — turning messy, authentic conversation into clean, structured text. No prior AI experience needed.

• Accurately identify and differentiate between multiple speakers within a single recording
• Apply consistent formatting conventions for timestamps, speaker labels, non-verbal sounds, and unclear segments
• Flag audio segments that are unintelligible or ambiguous, following established protocols
• Maintain a high standard of accuracy, consistency, and attention to detail across all assignments
