About the Role:
The role is for a Japanese speaker to take those machine translations and rewrite them so they sound completely natural and local — as if a Japanese sports content creator wrote them originally. It is not word-for-word translation. The goal is content that feels personal, local to Japan, not like a translated document.
Language: Japanese
Location: Remote
Key Responsibilities
- Rewrite AI-translated sports content (reels, captions, articles, prediction cards) into natural, sounding Japanese.
- Make the writing feel as if it was created for local Japanese fans (not translated from English).
- Use short, spoken-style sentences for video/social content that match the energy of a sports voiceover.
- Assess machine translations using a simple checklist (flow, tone, meaning, length).
- Review recorded audio and reels for pronunciation, pacing, and authenticity.
- Identify correct local sports terminology, slang, and fan expressions (instead of literal translations).
- Give concise notes on anything unclear, incorrect, or unnatural in the AI translation.
Required Skills & Qualifications
- Japanese speaker with Japanese nationality or residency + current, genuine understanding of how people in Japan actually speak and write.
- Strong written English (to understand the original source content accurately).
- Comfortable writing in a casual, social-media / voiceover style (not formal or academic).
- Strong attention to detail when reviewing audio and giving constructive feedback.
- Open to graduates and graduate students — no specific degree required.
Nice to Have
- Good knowledge of football.
- Experience with sports betting or prediction-related content.
- Experience recording or reviewing voiceover/audio.
- Background in translation, localisation, copywriting, or social media content creation.
