Data Quality Specialist - Korean Translator (Part-Time)

Job expired!
Who are we?
We’re a small, diverse team working at the forefront of machine learning. The Cohere platform provides access to Large Language Models through its APIs that read billions of web pages and learn to understand the meaning, sentiment, and intent of the words we use in a depth never seen before.

We are committed to creating a diverse and inclusive workplace where all of our team members can thrive. We welcome kind and brilliant individuals to our team, from all over the world.

Why this role?
We are on a mission to construct machines that understand the world and make them safely accessible to everyone. Data quality is fundamental to this process.

Cohere is seeking dynamic and dedicated Data Annotators with exceptional skills in Korean writing and translation.
