our partner is seeking experienced Arabic Linguistic Experts to join a cutting-edge AI research project in partnership with a leading research lab. This role centers on evaluating how effectively a large language model (LLM) performs in Arabic-language tasks and on curating high-quality Arabic linguistic data to train and improve the model's understanding and generation capabilities.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Evaluate the quality and accuracy of LLM-generated Arabic text across various use cases (e.g., translation, summarization, dialogue, grammar correction).

  • Edit, refine, or rewrite Arabic content to meet linguistic and cultural standards for Arabic-speaking audiences.

  • Annotate Arabic text for grammatical, syntactic, and semantic features.

  • Identify model errors and language gaps, and collaborate with AI researchers to improve LLM performance.

  • Provide detailed linguistic feedback and analysis to guide ongoing model training efforts.

You're a strong fit if you have:

  • Native or near-native fluency in Arabic, with excellent command over grammar, syntax, and stylistics.

  • Professional experience in translation, editing, linguistic annotation, or NLP data work in Arabic.

  • Strong understanding of Arabic nuances, regional variations, register, and context-appropriate usage.

  • Professional fluency in English.

  • Interest in AI and LLM-driven language technologies (preferred but not required).

  • Excellent attention to detail and ability to spot subtle errors or unnatural phrasing.

  • Clear communication skills and experience working in distributed, remote teams.

Why Join

  • Contribute to cutting-edge AI research in partnership with a leading research lab.

  • Work on high-impact projects that directly support the development of advanced AI systems.

  • Gain hands-on exposure to state-of-the-art AI research and development.

  • Join a fast-moving project where your expertise and judgment can have a meaningful impact.

This is a 100% remote contract role. Applicants must be located in: United States.

What to know before you apply

Pay
At the published rate, 10 hours a week would be about $400 and 20 hours about $800 before tax. Hours depend on the project, so treat this as a ceiling, not a promise.
Language
You will work in Arabic as well as English. Expect a native-level check in Arabic, so write your test answers the way you would for a professional client.
Location
Only applicants located in United States can be paid for this role. Platforms usually verify where you are, so apply only if you are based there.
Timing
This listing is new today. Projects can close once they have enough people, so it is worth applying while it is open.
Test tips for writers
  • Read the style guide twice; tone and register are graded as strictly as grammar.
  • Fix meaning first, then fluency, then style.
  • Note cultural or regional choices so reviewers see your reasoning.
