Description:

We’re hiring a Translator Trainee to help localize digital products — no experience needed, just strong language sense, attention to detail, and curiosity about how apps and websites talk to users. You’ll help translate documents, website content, emails, subtitles, and short-form materials between two or more languages. We’ll teach you how to work with subtitle tools, timecodes, and how to sync lines with tone and pacing. You’ll learn how to work with string tables, keys, and variable-based content like “You have 3 new messages. ” Expect to translate UI copy, adapt tone for different markets, and avoid wordy phrasing that breaks layouts. We’ll show you how to handle placeholders, gender-neutral terms, plural logic, and platform-specific constraints. We’ll guide you through character limits, subtitle rhythm, line breaks, and how to keep things readable on screen. You’ll practice translating real content for blogs, product descriptions, presentations, or customer support. We’ll teach you how to maintain glossaries and translation memories, ensuring consistency across screens and updates.

Basic Qualifications:

• Be flexible—some projects are casual and fast-paced, others require meticulous attention to tone.
• Manage your time efficiently, especially when switching between languages or topics.
• Handle different formats—documents, subtitles, websites, apps, or even casual chat conversations.
• Review and revise translations to ensure clarity, accuracy, and flow.
• Follow client or brand guidelines to ensure translations align with tone and voice.

Preferred:

• Comfortable working with bilingual spreadsheets, PDF files, or CMS exports and re-imports.
• Able to maintain meaning, tone, and context during translation across various subject areas.
• Familiar with using CAT tools like SDL Trados, MemoQ, Smartcat, or DeepL Pro to assist with productivity.
• Experience translating written documents such as articles, manuals, subtitles, or websites.
• Willing to perform revisions, edits, or post-editing of machine-translated content when required.

Benefits:

• Flexible hours and remote-friendly setup — as long as it’s accurate, work when and where you want.
• We celebrate accuracy, cultural sensitivity, and those tricky idioms you nailed.
• Multilingual, multicultural team — you’re not the only language nerd here.
• Translation variety — from marketing and legal to subtitles and product UX.
• No “just Google it” culture here — we respect the craft of real translation.

You’ll gain experience working with tools like Lokalise, Phrase, or Crowdin, and learn the basics of structured localization workflows. You’ll also help test translations in-app and report any visual issues caused by text length or formatting. You’ll learn about pluralization, gendered terms, and inclusive language practices across different languages. This is perfect for detail-oriented bilinguals who care about tone, space, and making tech feel native everywhere. You’ll build a real portfolio of product-focused translations that show more than just fluency — they show UX thinking. Expect mentorship, training materials, and ongoing support from a friendly, multilingual team. We want you to grow with us — so we’ll help you create a professional portfolio and build your confidence. If you’re curious, precise, and passionate about language, this is your chance to make your mark in digital translation.
