  • Experience with enterprise localization tools, translation management platforms (Smartling, memoQ, Phrase or similar), and developing and maintaining linguistic assets and workflows
  • Excellent verbal, written, and interpersonal communication
  • Native speaker of one additional language

  • Native French, German, Chinese or Japanese preferred
  • Experience designing and implementing scalable localization processes and technical automation
  • Track record of building localization programs from scratch or through transformation
  • Experience evaluating MT/LLM quality in production workflows
