About this opportunity

Overview

iMerit is onboarding English audio transcribers for an upcoming AI-related project. This is a remote, project-based engagement with a deadline-focused workload, and applicants should be comfortable working in a time-bound environment.

What You'll Do

  • Listen to English audio files and transcribe spoken content accurately into text.
  • Work with raw audio such as conversations, calls, and other recordings.
  • Follow project-specific formatting rules and quality guidelines.
  • Review audio for personally identifiable information, sensitive data, privacy risks, safety concerns, policy compliance, and contextual ambiguity.
  • Evaluate AI model outputs derived from audio for correctness, completeness, relevance, risk classification, and guideline adherence when applicable.
  • Apply changing annotation guidelines consistently and make sound judgments on edge cases.
  • Escalate ambiguous cases, tooling issues, and guideline gaps to project leads or quality teams.
  • Manage your own schedule and task throughput while meeting project deadlines and quality expectations.

What We're Looking For

  • Excellent command of written and spoken English.
  • Strong listening skills.
  • Ability to work accurately under strict deadlines.
  • Prior transcription or audio annotation experience is a plus.
  • Access to a computer, good headphones, and stable internet.
