The job description

About the Role

What if your Austrian German accent and sharp ear for natural speech could help teach AI how to handle a real call to a Ordination or Krankenhaus reception? We're looking for native German speakers based in Vienna to hold spoken conversations with an AI healthcare receptionist, then evaluate how well it listens, responds, and takes action.

You'll role-play as a patient using fictional personas we provide, record short conversations, and grade the AI's performance. This is a fully remote, flexible contract role for people with clear speech, strong attention to detail, and an instinct for what sounds natural in authentic Austrian German.

What You'll Do

Hold 4 to 5 minute spoken conversations in German with an AI front desk assistant, playing a fictional patient
Say natural trigger phrases to test whether the AI makes the correct function calls — for example, checking a patient record, booking an appointment, or verifying insurance
Review transcripts and classify how accurately the AI understood you and responded
Flag issues such as mispronunciations, cutoffs, interruptions, delays, and incorrect function calls, including timestamps
Test how the AI handles background noise, short replies such as "ja," "nein," or "okay," long numbers, emotional moments, and sensitive or unsafe requests
Follow detailed labeling guidelines consistently and submit high-quality work

Who You Are

Native or near-native German speaker (Austrian German particularly valued) with a clear, natural speaking voice
Detail-oriented, with the patience to review recordings and transcripts closely
Comfortable role-playing a patient and sounding authentic in conversation
Able to follow multi-step instructions and apply them consistently
Reliable and self-directed when working independently
Access to a quiet space, a good microphone, a stable internet connection, and a second device for playing background noise
Comfortable using web-based tools

Nice to Have

Experience in voice AI evaluation, data annotation, or QA testing
Background in healthcare administration, customer service, or call centre work
Familiarity with Austrian German speech patterns and colloquial expressions
Linguistics or language-focused academic background
Familiarity with medical terminology in German

Why Join Us

Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs
Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
Task-based work with real autonomy
Directly help make voice AI more accurate, natural, and safe in healthcare settings
Potential for ongoing work as new projects launch

Note: New contributors complete a short unpaid qualification assessment. Contributors who pass are added to paid production work.
