  • Assess speech quality using native or near-native listening judgement
  • Provide precise quality feedback on recordings requiring correction or rework
  • Prepare audio for TTS and speech-AI training pipelines
  • Review recordings against dataset and model-training specifications
  • Support quality-control workflows for large-scale machine-learning datasets

  • Experience with TTS, speech ML, voice AI, dataset creation, or audio annotation is highly valued
  • Familiarity with audio QA pipelines, labelling, or evaluation processes is advantageous
  • Experience editing or directing French voice-talent recordings is particularly relevant
  • Ability to balance production speed with consistent quality across repetitive, high-precision work
  • Work must be completed without using confidential or proprietary information belonging to any employer, client, institution, or other third party
