Kinyarwanda Speakers: Audio Transcription for Speech Recognition

About this opportunity

What We're Researching

We're running a paid project focused on training advanced speech recognition models for Kinyarwanda. High-quality transcription data is critical for building reliable voice technologies that understand diverse languages. Your work will directly improve how these systems process and recognize spoken Kinyarwanda in real-world applications.

How It Works

You will listen to short audio recordings and type out the spoken words with high accuracy. The work also involves adjusting time segmentations to ensure the text aligns perfectly with the audio track. This is an ongoing, remote opportunity requiring a commitment of at least 10 hours per week. All tasks are completed asynchronously through our specialized annotation platform.

Who This Is For

We are hiring fluent Kinyarwanda speakers who have strong listening and typing skills. Previous experience in transcription, translation, or data annotation is highly valued but not strictly required. You must be comfortable working independently and have a reliable internet connection to handle audio files.

Requirements:
• Fluent or native proficiency in Kinyarwanda
• Strong written communication and typing skills
• Access to a reliable computer and internet connection
• Ability to dedicate 10 or more hours per week to the project

Responsibilities:
• Listen to Kinyarwanda audio clips and transcribe the spoken content accurately
• Adjust audio segmentations to align text boundaries with the spoken words
• Commit at least 10 hours per week to complete ongoing tasks
