- Monitor external vendor quality, investigate quality variations and develop and implement measures to drive quality improvement in collaboration with internal teams.
- Contribute to the maintenance of language assets, namely style guides, term bases and translation memories.
- Provide occasional manual translations.
- Occasionally, post-edit machine-translated product pages to increase the product availability for the customer in their preferred language.
- Depending on the group’s needs and your own skills and inclinations, support our leadership, business and tech teams by taking an active part in training, project/program management, etc.
- English and German at a native level.
- Bachelor’s degree in one of the following fields: Translation, Linguistics, Communications or related field (Master’s degree preferred).

- Knowledge of Arabic, Spanish or Italian is a plus.
- Experience with MT, LLM and annotations.
- Experience working with mark-up language, user-interface strings and e-learning content.
