Language Data Quality Reviewer - Singapore Malay (Entry-Level / L1)

Understanding the Role (Entry-Level Scope with High Language Standards)

This role is structured as an Entry-Level (L1 – Foundational Scope) position, which refers to the type of tasks and level of complexity, not the candidate’s overall experience or capability.

Tasks are clearly defined, guideline-driven, and execution-focused, designed for high-volume, standardized work.

While the task complexity is entry-level, we maintain high language quality standards. Candidates should have advanced proficiency (C1/C2 or equivalent) in the required language(s) to ensure accuracy and consistency.

We welcome applicants with more advanced experience (L2/L3); however, task scope and compensation for this role are aligned strictly to entry-level L1 responsibilities.

This role is part of an early-stage pilot program, where we are building a foundational team to support ongoing and future client initiatives. We are actively building our initial team, and early contributors will be prioritized for ongoing work as the program expands.

At this time, all available work and budget are aligned with entry-level (L1) tasks, which are structured, execution-based, and designed for high-volume delivery.

👉 This role is a starting point within a growing program, with potential for expanded opportunities based on project needs, performance, and budget.

Contributors who are active, reliable, and consistent will remain engaged within the project ecosystem as work continues to evolve.
