The job description
About the Role
What if your voice could directly shape how AI understands and communicates with millions of people around the world? We're looking for professional voice actors and voice-over artists with authentic Irish English accents to take part in paid studio recording sessions for a leading AI speech research project.
This is not voice cloning. Your recordings will be used to help AI systems better understand the natural rhythms, nuances, and character of real Irish speech — making technology more human for everyone.
- Organisation: Alignerr
- Type: Contract
- Sessions: 2–3 sessions of 4 hours each
- Format: In-person professional recording studio (locally assigned in Ireland)
What You'll Do
- Record natural, conversational Irish English speech in a professional studio environment
- Participate in single-speaker sessions and dual-speaker dialogue recordings
- Deliver realistic, human-sounding speech that feels unscripted and natural
- Follow light direction to vary tone, pacing, and delivery across different scenarios
- Bring your performance instincts to make every line feel authentic and alive
Who You Are
- A professional voice actor or voice-over artist with real recording experience
- A native or near-native Irish English speaker — your accent is the real deal
- Currently based in Ireland
- Comfortable performing natural conversation and dialogue in a studio setting
- Receptive to direction, reliable, and professional in your approach
- Fluent in English at a working level for communication and direction
Nice to Have
- Acting or performance background beyond voice work
- Experience in broadcast, podcast production, or professional studio recording
- Comfort performing both solo monologue and two-person conversational formats
Why Join Us
- Contribute to genuinely meaningful AI research that shapes how technology hears the world
- Work with leading AI research teams on cutting-edge speech projects
- Competitive contract pay for a focused, time-efficient commitment
- Be part of a select group of voice professionals helping represent Irish English in AI at a global scale
- Potential for additional sessions and ongoing collaboration as new projects launch
