About the Role
We are looking for skilled Japanese linguistic specialists to contribute to an innovative artificial intelligence research project in collaboration with a major research institution. Your contributions are essential for improving language model performance, specifically regarding the assessment and enhancement of how these systems process the Japanese language. You will be instrumental in developing premium linguistic datasets to ensure the technology generates text that aligns with the expectations of native speakers. By immersing yourself in this data, you will help minimize the difference between machine-produced outputs and human-level communication, ultimately refining AI-driven interactions to be contextually relevant, culturally relevant, and linguistically sound.
Requirements

- You need a professional background in areas like linguistic annotation, editing, translation, or NLP data processing.
- You should demonstrate strong attention to detail, with the ability to spot minor mistakes or awkward phrasing that others might overlook.
- You must be capable of effective communication within a remote, global team setting.
- You should have a genuine curiosity regarding the mechanics of AI and large language models.
Responsibilities
- You will assess the precision and quality of Japanese text produced by large language models, covering areas such as translation, summarization, conversational flow, and grammar review.
- You will update, polish, or paraphrase content to meet strict linguistic and cultural benchmarks.
- You will label text based on grammatical, syntactic, and semantic elements while detecting specific failures or deficiencies in the models.
- You will work in tandem with artificial intelligence researchers to facilitate model development by submitting comprehensive linguistic critiques and analytical summaries.
Benefits & Perks
- You will participate in groundbreaking AI research alongside a top-tier laboratory.
- You will work on high-stakes assignments that shape the evolution of sophisticated artificial intelligence, gaining practical experience with modern technology.
- You will be part of an agile team where your personal insight and professional skills make a tangible impact on progress within the industry.
