Native Russian Translator/Editor Needed: Review & Fix AI Translations

Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

We need help reviewing and correcting AI-generated translations for our online store content. We will provide two JSON files: the original English text and a draft translation produced by AI. The task is to compare both files and fix the translation so it reads naturally to a native speaker and accurately conveys the meaning of the original. A word-for-word match is not required. What matters most is preserving the context, tone, and intent of the text (this is a creative task, not just a mechanical check). The file contains approximately 2,500 lines (around 180,000 characters / 27,000 words). File format: JSON (standard Shopify locale file, key-value structure, with placeholders like variables and HTML tags inside some strings). Important: placeholders and HTML markup must not be altered, only the text values should be translated. Requirements: - Fluent in English. - Native speaker of Russian - Experience with localization or translation of ecommerce/UX copy is a plus. - Attention to detail: the JSON structure and placeholders/variables must remain intact.
