About the Role
What if your voice could directly shape how AI understands and communicates with hundreds of millions of people? We're looking for professional voice actors and voice-over artists with authentic Indian English accents to participate in paid studio recording sessions — helping leading AI research teams build speech systems that truly understand the way real people talk.

- Fluent in English at a working level for communication
Nice to Have
