Japanese PDF Annotation & Transcription Expert

Japanese PDF Annotation \& Transcription Expert is a remote Japanese specialist track for evaluating japanese annotation outputs against native\-speaker standards. Reviewers spot fluency, register, and cultural\-context errors that automated checks miss, and write structured rationale that the modeling team can act on in the next training cycle. **Why this role matters** ------------------------- Multilingual model quality depends on reviewers who can read Japanese the way a native speaker does. AuraOne uses these reviewers to set the bar for tone, formality, and cultural register before a model ever ships to Japanese users. **Responsibilities** -------------------- * Evaluate Japanese model responses for fluency, accuracy, register, and cultural fit for Japanese PDF Annotation \& Transcription Expert assignments. * Compare paired japanese annotation outputs and pick the stronger response with a written rationale. * Flag hallucinations, code\-switching errors, and formality mismatches with task\-specific severity tags. * Capture native\-speaker edits that demonstrate the correct phrasing alongside each issue. * Calibrate against the AuraOne Japanese rubric in weekly reviewer\-quality cycles. * Surface ambiguous prompts back to the program team so the rubric can be sharpened. * Maintain reviewer notes that document tricky idioms, regionalisms, and emerging usage. **Qualifications** ------------------ * Native or near\-native Japanese fluency with strong written\-English ability for Japanese PDF Annotation \& Transcription Expert work. * Demonstrable experience editing, translating, or evaluating Japanese content. * Comfort applying multi\-page rubrics consistently across long evaluation batches. * Clear written reasoning that names the issue and the standard being applied. * Reliable async availability for at least 10 hours per week. * Prior model\-evaluation, annotation, or human\-rater experience is a plus. **Example tasks** ----------------- * Score a pair of Japanese responses to a customer\-support prompt and pick the better one with a 1\-2 sentence rationale. * Flag formality mismatches in japanese annotation outputs (T/V usage, honorifics, regional register). * Rewrite a model's Japanese response so it reads naturally and tag the original error category. * Audit a 50\-row evaluation batch for rubric consistency and surface drift back to the program lead. **Nice to have** ---------------- * Background in Japanese linguistics, journalism, or translation studies. * Experience with TMS tools, MQM error taxonomies, or other structured QA frameworks. * Familiarity with LLM evaluation rubrics and inter\-rater agreement workflows. **Skills** ---------- * Multilingual evaluation * Native\-speaker review * Rubric application * LLM output evaluation * Japanese annotation **Work model** -------------- Remote — US\-eligible.
