Original posting from Mercor
Mercor is partnering with a leading AI research lab to build next-generation text-to-speech (TTS) systems capable of producing natural, expressive, and human-like voices. We are seeking Germany-based native German speakers to contribute high-quality voice recordings for training and evaluating cutting-edge speech models. This role is ideal for professionals with experience in voice acting, narration, or broadcast who can deliver consistent, expressive, and clean audio across a variety of scripts.
Your voice recordings will be used exclusively for the client's internal CX AI Agent. They will not be sold, licensed, or reused for any other product, dataset, or purpose.
**Key Responsibilities**

- Deliver clear, natural, and expressive speech with strong control over tone, pacing, and pronunciation

- Perform multiple takes with variation in emotion, emphasis, and style when required
**Requirements**
- Native German speaker currently based in Germany

- Strong command of intonation, diction, and emotional range
- Ability to follow scripts precisely while maintaining natural delivery
- Reliable availability for 5-10 hours per week over the project duration
- \[IMP\]: Your voice may be cloned for the client's CX AI Agent so please only apply if you are okay with voice cloning. Your recordings will not be sold or reused outside of this specific use case.
**Preferred Qualifications**
