Contract Academic Translator

Remote

Contracted

Mid Level

At American Journal Experts (AJE), we help researchers successfully communicate their work through trusted author-oriented solutions to overcome the barriers to the manuscript preparation process. We are actively recruiting independent contractors with language-specific expertise to translate scholarly manuscripts.

AJE provides a platform that allows qualified providers to support researchers from across the world. AJE's contract academic translators can work remotely from anywhere in the US with a stable internet connection. They can select manuscripts based on their areas of expertise, and they are not obligated to accept jobs that are available on our platform. Academic translating providers are compensated based on manuscript length.

Requirements

To qualify as an independent contract academic translator, applicants must:

Have native Chinese proficiency
Be fluent in English
Possess a Master's, PhD or professional degree in a relevant field
Be based in the United States (residents of countries outside of the United States as well as residents of California and Massachusetts are not eligible for this position)

The ideal applicant for this position would have had exposure to scientific fields and their literature. The candidates who will be most successful in this role are autonomous, have editing experience and/or strong technical writing skills, and seek to make a positive impact on their field of expertise.

An essential requirement of this freelance role is the ability to partner with AI and automation, as most manuscripts will come pre-translated by automation tools developed in house. Checking these translations for accuracy and rejecting incorrect changes, in addition to making your own translations based on your expertise, are core expectations in this position.
