  • Measure and report on language quality across 36+ languages and multiple content types (product, marketing, inventory), and establish quality benchmarks.
  • Analyze quality data (e.g., error patterns) and deliver insights into how quality levels impact users and business outcomes across different markets.
  • Partner with internal and external stakeholders (e.g., Engineering, Quality Account Managers) to align on MT architecture decisions.

Requirements

  • 3+ years evaluating and optimizing MT and AI models across different content types and languages for a tech company with a large global reach.
  • Experience with prompt engineering and fine-tuning LLMs for translation tasks.
  • Strong technical knowledge of localization, including translation management systems, quality evaluation frameworks, automation tools, and managing translation memories, style guides, and glossaries.
  • Proven ability to design and implement scalable systems using methods like MTQE, AI LQA, and human review to measure language quality.
