Project Overview
We are sourcing independent Language Alignment & Resource Partners (LARPs) to provide native-level Māori language vetting and QA for a specialized AI data project.

- Quality Assurance & Vetting: Acting as a primary quality check during production to proactively identify and correct subtle cultural errors or awkward phrasing in the Māori.
- Resource Generation: Analyzing task quality trends and autonomously developing educational resources and feedback documentation to increase alignment between AI task outputs and campaign expectations.
- Production & Vetting Support: Providing native-level language vetting during project scaling and offering specialized linguistic consultation throughout the production phase.
Required Expertise
To successfully fulfill the deliverables of this project, Contractors must possess a meticulous eye for language and cultural nuance.
Core skillset includes:
- Demonstrable work or educational experience in linguistics, education, or other fields requiring high attention to linguistic detail.
- Prior, tangible experience working in human data evaluation or annotation.
- Verified Māori language proficiency of C1 or C2
- The ability to confidently transform raw feedback and quality trends into structured, actionable educational resources.
- A meticulous approach to language, with the sharpness to identify and correct even the most subtle unnatural phrasing in their native tongue.
Service Fees
We offer a pay range of $6-to- $65 per hour, with the exact rate determined based on your experience, expertise, and geographic location. Final offer amounts may vary from the pay range listed above.
