Overview
Terac runs a paid annotation project that builds training data for Kinyarwanda speech recognition models. You listen to short clips, type what you hear, and adjust time boundaries so every transcript lines up with the audio. The work happens on a dedicated annotation platform on your own schedule, with a commitment of at least 10 hours each week. Clean transcripts from this project feed voice systems that need to handle languages outside the usual handful.
What You'll Do6
- Transcribe short Kinyarwanda recordings and capture the spoken words exactly as they sound.
- Shift audio segment markers so each text boundary lands on the matching phrase.
- Set aside 10 hours or more per week for a steady stream of ongoing tasks.
- Read through finished transcripts and correct spelling, wording, and alignment slips.
- Complete every task asynchronously through the project's annotation platform.
- Keep accuracy steady across clips so the model trains on trustworthy data.
Requirements6
- Native or fluent command of Kinyarwanda.
- Solid typing speed paired with clear, correct written text.
- A computer that plays audio files without trouble.
- Stable internet access for streaming and uploading recordings.
- At least 10 hours a week available for project work.
- Comfort working alone without close supervision.
Preferred Qualifications3
- Prior transcription work
- Translation background
- Data annotation experience
Who Should Apply
Kinyarwanda speakers who type well and listen closely will settle into this work fast. Transcription, translation, or annotation experience helps, though the team accepts people without it. Plan on 10 hours a week and a connection that handles audio files.
