About the job
Are you passionate about the K'iche' language and excited to influence the future of artificial intelligence? As large-scale language models transition beyond simple chatbots to become impactful tools for communication, education, and cultural preservation, your expertise is essential. By providing high-quality training data, we can ensure that AI accurately represents K'iche' vocabulary, grammar, dialectical variations, and cultural contexts, thus aiding in the preservation of Mayan knowledge and fostering meaningful linguistic exchanges.
We seek K'iche' language specialists who possess a deep understanding of regional dialects, phonetics, syntax, idiomatic expressions, oral traditions, and cultural references. Your role will involve critically assessing advanced language models on various topics, including contextual interpretation, tone and meaning, dialectical distinctions, semantic accuracy, and cultural nuance. You will meticulously document any failures to enhance model reasoning.
On a typical day, you will engage in conversations with the AI model in K'iche' on diverse topics, verify linguistic precision and cultural relevance, trace reproducible errors, and propose enhancements to our prompt engineering and evaluation metrics.
A degree in Linguistics, Indigenous Studies, Translation, or a related field is preferred, along with professional experience in teaching, translation, language documentation, or community work. Clear and reflective communication—demonstrating your thought process—is crucial.
Are you ready to leverage your K'iche' expertise to create the knowledge base for the next generation of AI? Apply now to start teaching the model that will educate the world.
