Russian language tagger/translator - Contract (Part-time)
We are looking for enthusiastic Russian teachers or translators to help us build our interactive reader tool. This tool helps teach Russian through reading by presenting language learners with richly annotated, culturally-relevant, leveled passages.
In this remote contract position you’ll help us improve the tools we use to develop new Russian passages by automating some of our grammar tagging. Your work will mostly involve basic translation and some identification of grammatical features (e.g. part of speech, person/number/gender, etc.) with the aid of our guidelines. We will also request that you attend a limited number of meetings to provide feedback and discuss the results with the rest of the team.
We expect this phase of the project to involve 5-10 hours of work a week for 2-3 months. However, this project will have further phases in future, and we would love to recruit someone who would be interested in doing similar contracting work with the Mango interactive reader in the future.
- Native speaker/writer of Russian
- Advanced proficiency in English
- Able to identify grammatical features like part of speech, person/number/gender, aspect, case, etc. in Russian with the help of guidelines.
- Good familiarity with google suite (sheets, docs, filesharing, etc.)
- Able to attend occasional meetings on Google Meets during EST work hours
- Ability to learn new technologies
- Experience teaching Russian to English speakers
- Experience working on natural language processing tagging projects or something similar.
- Degree in language teaching, applied linguistics, or similar
- Writing or editing experience in Russian or in another language
