Overview

As a part-time, remote Danish Linguistic Expert, you will assess how well a large language model handles Danish and help build the language data that supports its training. The project, run with a leading research lab, covers tasks such as translation, summarization, dialogue, and grammar correction. You will apply your knowledge of Danish grammar, style, and cultural context to improve model output and inform ongoing research.

What You'll Do5

  • Review LLM responses in Danish for accuracy and quality across translation, summarization, dialogue, and grammar correction.
  • Edit or rewrite Danish text so it fits linguistic and cultural expectations for Danish-speaking audiences.
  • Label Danish text for grammatical, syntactic, and semantic features.
  • Spot model errors and gaps in Danish language coverage, then work with AI researchers to address them.
  • Provide detailed linguistic feedback and analysis to inform ongoing model training.

Requirements6

  • Native or near-native Danish fluency, with strong command of grammar, syntax, and stylistics.
  • Professional experience in Danish translation, editing, linguistic annotation, or NLP data work.
  • Knowledge of Danish nuances, regional variations, register, and context-appropriate usage.
  • Professional fluency in English.
  • Strong attention to detail, including the ability to identify subtle errors and unnatural phrasing.
  • Clear communication skills and experience working with distributed, remote teams.

Preferred Qualifications1

  • Interest in AI and LLM-based language technologies

Who Should Apply

Danish language professionals with experience in translation, editing, annotation, or NLP data work can bring the linguistic judgment this project needs. Candidates should be comfortable assessing nuanced Danish text and communicating findings in English within a remote team.
