Irish English Speech & Accent Evaluator

About OpenTrain

OpenTrain is the #1 platform for finding and building careers in AI training and data labeling. We connect people with projects that teach AI how to understand and speak like real people, offering flexible remote work and opportunities to grow in a fast-moving industry.

Why AI Training Matters

AI systems learn from examples prepared and reviewed by people. Speech and accent evaluators help models produce natural, intelligible spoken language by rating pronunciation, fluency, and accent-specific patterns.

This kind of work is often remote, flexible, and accessible—ideal for part-time contributors who want to influence how voice technologies speak and sound in the real world.

The Role

We are hiring Ireland-based Speech & Accent Evaluators to interact with an AI model in Irish English. You will record audio prompts, listen to AI-generated spoken responses, and provide structured evaluations and corrective feedback focused on accent, pronunciation, and fluency.

This is a contractor, part-time role with a maximum commitment under 20 hours per week and pay of USD 20 per hour.

• Work type: Remote (must be based in Ireland)
• Employment: Contractor, Part-time
• Pay: $20 USD per hour
• Time: Less than 20 hours/week

What You'll Do

Perform careful, example-driven evaluations of AI speech in Irish English and record your assessments using the provided labeling tools (). Your feedback should be clear, structured, and actionable to guide model improvements.

• Provide audio prompts and listen to AI responses in Irish English.
• Rate accent, pronunciation, and fluency using evaluation-rating tasks.
