Polish Subject Matter Expert – AI Audio Transcription; Remote

What if your deep command of Polish and your leadership instincts could directly shape how AI learns to understand spoken language? We're looking for a Subject Matter Expert (SME) to lead our Polish audio transcription project - and London's vibrant Polish-speaking community makes this an ideal opportunity for local talent.

You'll oversee a team of language labelers and reviewers, provide linguistic guidance, and help ensure consistent, accurate, and high-quality output across the project. This is a fully remote role - work from wherever suits you best.
