Job description

Source: Himalayas — original listing

At Your Personal AI (YPAI), we develop next-generation AI systems that understand language in context — culturally, linguistically, and semantically. Our annotation projects support the world’s most advanced AI models, and we’re seeking Swahili language experts to join this mission.

Position Summary

We’re looking for a native Swahili speaker to contribute to AI training by performing high-quality data annotation and linguistic evaluation. You’ll help fine-tune large language models by tagging, editing, and reviewing Swahili-language content. This is a remote, freelance role with flexible working hours.

What You'll Do

  • Annotate Swahili-language text for AI training and testing.
  • Evaluate and edit machine-generated Swahili content for grammar, clarity, and context.
  • Provide cultural insight to ensure outputs are locally relevant and accurate.
  • Follow detailed project instructions and quality guidelines.
  • Collaborate with an international team via English-language communication tools.

What We Offer

  • Remote-first work – contribute from anywhere.
  • Flexible freelance schedule – work when it suits you.
  • Impactful projects – shape inclusive, multilingual AI technologies.
  • Inclusive and global culture – join a diverse network of language professionals.

Requirements

  • Native-level fluency in Swahili, with excellent reading and writing skills.
  • Good command of English, especially for documentation and communication.
  • A keen eye for detail, especially in linguistic tasks.
  • Strong time management and ability to work independently.
  • Background in linguistics, translation, or data annotation.

Highlights

If you're passionate about Swahili and want to influence how AI understands and uses language, we’d love to hear from you.
