Brazilian Portuguese Audio Transcript Editor — Remote (AI Training)

$15-35/hrRemoteFreelanceAUDIO

About the Role

What if your sharp ears and precision with language could directly improve how AI understands spoken Portuguese? We're looking for detail-oriented Audio Transcript Editors to review, clean up, and correct machine-generated audio transcripts in Brazilian Portuguese — ensuring every word, timestamp, and formatting detail is exactly right.

Germany — and Berlin in particular — has a substantial and growing Brazilian expat community. We're looking for native Brazilian Portuguese speakers based here who want to do meaningful, well-paid remote work that fits around their existing commitments.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. No AI background needed — just native-level Brazilian Portuguese, strong listening skills, and comfort following detailed style and formatting guidelines.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

What You'll Do

  • Listen to audio recordings and compare them against existing transcripts in Brazilian Portuguese
  • Identify and correct errors in transcription — including misspelled words, missing words, incorrect words, and punctuation issues
  • Ensure word-level accuracy and verify that timestamps and timing alignments are precise
  • Apply detailed style and formatting guidelines consistently across all tasks
  • Flag sections with unclear audio, overlapping speakers, or other quality issues
  • Maintain high accuracy and consistency across large volumes of transcript data
  • Work independently and asynchronously — fully on your own schedule

Who You Are

  • Native Brazilian Portuguese speaker with an excellent command of written Portuguese
  • Strong listening skills — you can parse spoken language accurately, even when audio quality varies
  • Exceptionally detail-oriented with a patient, methodical approach to work
  • Comfortable working at the word level — you care about every accent, comma, and timestamp
  • Able to follow detailed style guides and formatting rules with precision and consistency
  • Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
  • Comfortable using web-based tools and audio playback interfaces

Nice to Have

  • Experience as a transcriptionist, court reporter, or stenographer
  • Background in subtitling, closed captioning, or subtitle editing
  • Linguistics training or a degree in language-related fields
  • Prior work with annotation platforms, data labeling tools, or AI training workflows
  • Experience with audio editing or quality assurance for media content
  • Familiarity with transcription software or timing/alignment tools
