AI Trainer - Fluent Kazakh Speaker - Austin, US

About the role

We are seeking fluent Kazakh speakers to act as evaluators. AI models are now learning to communicate with human-like nuance, and we need fluent speakers to ensure these models understand the depth and nuance of the Kazakh language. You will be completing side-by-side evaluations of AI-generated text, assessing how naturally and authentically the AI captures written Kazakh. This includes reading text samples and identifying how natural and idiomatic the writing sounds. This is a fast-paced project where your eye for detail directly influences how AI understands human language.

Responsibilities

• Side-by-side evaluation: comparing text snippets to assess quality and authenticity
• Naturalness assessment: reading AI-generated text and rating how natural the writing sounds
• Quality control: identifying where the AI's tone or phrasing feels unnatural or culturally mismatched
• Contextual review: identifying whether word choice and register match the cultural context of the writing
• Data tagging: providing feedback on the naturalness, tone, and authenticity of the text
