• Editing, refining, or rewriting Dutch content to meet linguistic and cultural standards for Dutch-speaking audiences.
• Annotating Dutch text for grammatical, syntactic, and semantic features.
• Identifying model errors and language gaps, and collaborating with AI researchers to improve LLM performance.
• Providing detailed linguistic feedback and analysis to guide ongoing model training.

Who this role is for

• Native or near-native fluency in Dutch, with strong command of grammar, syntax, and stylistics.
• Professional experience in translation, editing, linguistic annotation, or NLP data work in Dutch.
• Understanding of Dutch nuances, regional variations, register, and context-appropriate usage.
• Professional fluency in English.
• Strong attention to detail and the ability to spot subtle errors or unnatural phrasing.
• Clear communication skills and experience working in distributed remote teams.
• Interest in AI and LLM-driven language technologies (preferred but not required).
