AI Tutor - Greek

Details

Contribute to xAI's mission by training and refining Grok's multilingual audio capabilities. The role focuses on curating, annotating, and recording high-quality audio data to improve voice interactions, speech recognition, and auditory experiences across languages, accents, and cultural contexts.

Responsibilities

• Use proprietary software to provide labels, annotations, recordings, and inputs on projects involving multilingual audio clips, voice recordings, speech samples, and auditory elements in various languages.
• Support delivery of high-quality curated audio data to ensure clear, natural spoken output and accurate representation of linguistic and prosodic details (intonation, rhythm, accent) and professional audio standards.
• Collaborate with technical staff to develop tasks that improve AI handling of speech modulation, accent variation, noise in real-world recordings, and multilingual audio processing.
• Work with technical staff to improve annotation tools and audio workflows.

Requirements

• Native proficiency in Greek, with exposure to diverse accents, dialects, or regional variations.
• Proficiency in English (minimum B2) with clear, natural vocal delivery and pronunciation suitable for audio recording.
• Strong auditory perception to identify nuances in speech, accents, pronunciation, intonation, and audio quality.
• Ability to handle multilingual audio content, evaluate speech accuracy, cultural vocal expressions, and contextual interpretation.
• Demonstrated ability to transcribe audio with high accuracy across accents and varying audio quality.
• Comfort providing high-quality voice recordings and feedback on audio samples in multiple languages.
• Strong comprehension, independent judgment on ambiguous audio, and strong communication, interpersonal, analytical, detail-oriented, and organizational skills.
• Commitment to developing AI that masters sophisticated multilingual audio capabilities.

Preferred Skills and Experience

• Exceptional attention to linguistic nuance, auditory detail, and data quality beyond standard transcription work.
• Strong command of advanced transcription and annotation practices, including handling disfluencies, accents, and prosodic features (intonation, stress, rhythm, emotion) with high consistency and accuracy.
• Background in linguistics (phonetics, phonology, sociolinguistics), speech sciences, cognitive science, or equivalent practical experience, with demonstrated ability to analyze accent variation and multilingual speech patterns.
• Experience working with speech/audio datasets, annotation workflows, or AI training data; knowledge/experience with training voice models and understanding how data quality impacts model performance.
• Professional experience in voice work (voice acting, voice recording, podcasting) or audio production demonstrating attention to clarity and recording quality.
• Portfolio (strongly preferred for advanced candidates): voice samples, annotated transcripts, or audio-related work demonstrating quality and methodology.

Location and Other Expectations

• Roles may be full-time, part-time, or contractor positions. Contractors have flexible hours; most projects may require at least 10 hours/week on average, though this is not a fixed commitment.
