What this actually is

You evaluate AI responses in the target language, rate translation quality, write prompts in your native language, and flag errors. Not professional translation work in the traditional sense. The platform title (Generalist - English & Punjabi) reflects the rate band and the expertise required, not the day-to-day work.

Note the analysis you create will be in English.

What You'll Do

  • Conduct fact-checking using trusted public sources and external tools
  • Generate high-quality human evaluation data by identifying response strengths, areas for improvement, and factual inaccuracies

  • You are a native speaker in Punjabi
  • You have significant experience using large language models (LLMs) and understand how and why people use them
  • You have excellent writing skills in English and can clearly articulate nuanced feedback
  • You have strong attention to detail and consistently notice subtle issues others may overlook
  • You have a background or experience in domains requiring structured analytical thinking (e.g., research, policy, analytics, linguistics, engineering)

Nice-to-Have Specialties

  • Prior experience with RLHF, model evaluation, or data annotation work
  • Experience writing or editing high-quality written content
  • Experience comparing multiple outputs and making fine-grained qualitative judgments

What Success Looks Like

  • You identify factual inaccuracies, reasoning errors, and communication gaps in model responses
  • You produce clear, consistent, and reproducible evaluation artifacts
  • Your feedback leads to measurable improvements in response quality and user experience
