Quality Assurance Specialist

About the role

Help make the next generation of AI-narrated audiobooks sound genuinely human. You'll listen the way a real audiobook fan does, with a careful, analytical ear, and flag the moments where the narration slips so the underlying models can be improved. This is remote, part-time work at roughly 20 hours per week (about 4 hours per day). Candidates can be based anywhere, though people living in a region where English is natively spoken are preferred.

Responsibilities

• Listen to AI-narrated audiobooks in English and assess how natural, accurate, and enjoyable the narration is.
• Spot and log errors in the synthesized speech, including skipped, added, or mispronounced words, numbers read incorrectly, abbreviations expanded wrongly, unnatural phrasing or intonation, and audio glitches or artifacts.
• Categorize each issue and mark the exact span where it occurs, using review tooling provided by the project.
• Report on overall listener satisfaction and where the narration feels natural versus where it breaks the experience.
• Work consistently and carefully across many hours of audio without losing attention to detail.

Qualifications

• An active, genuine audiobook listener with real opinions about what makes a good listen.
• Enough working English to report clearly and communicate with the team.
• Some experience with annotation, labeling, transcription, proofreading, linguistics, or other detail-oriented review work.
• A sharp, patient ear and the discipline to stay accurate over long listening sessions.
• Reliable availability of about 20 hours per week.
