The job description

About the Role

What if your voice could directly shape how AI communicates with millions of German speakers around the world? We're looking for professional German-speaking voice actors and voice-over artists to record high-quality audio and evaluate AI-generated speech — helping frontier AI systems sound more natural, expressive, and authentically human.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role built for working voice professionals. No AI background needed — just a commanding voice, fluency in German, and a professional-grade recording setup.

> Important: This work is AI-related but does not involve voice cloning.

What You'll Do

Record high-quality German voice samples based on provided scripts and prompts
Evaluate AI-generated voice outputs for naturalness, pronunciation, tone, and expressiveness
Provide clear, constructive feedback to improve AI-generated speech quality
Review and refine scripts to ensure clarity, flow, and authentic delivery
Work independently and asynchronously — on your own schedule, from your own studio

Who You Are

Native or near-native fluency in German with a strong, clear speaking voice
Professional background in voice acting, narration, audiobook recording, dubbing, or similar fields
Access to a high-quality microphone and a quiet, controlled recording environment
Able to deliver expressive, nuanced performances across a variety of scripts and tones
Detail-oriented when assessing pronunciation, pacing, clarity, and vocal quality
No prior AI or tech experience required

Nice to Have

Experience working with audio production software or DAWs
Familiarity with AI tools or speech evaluation workflows
Ability to adapt vocal style across different registers — from conversational to formal
Knowledge of regional German dialect variation — Standard German, Austrian, Swiss, or otherwise
Background in broadcast, theatre, e-learning, or commercial voice work

Why Join Us

Work on cutting-edge AI projects alongside leading research labs and Fortune 500 teams
Fully remote and flexible — record from your own home studio, on your own schedule
Freelance autonomy with clear, task-based structure so you always know what success looks like
Make a direct, meaningful impact on how AI understands and produces human speech in German
High performers gain access to new programs and opportunities to mentor incoming voice contributors
Gain real exposure to how advanced AI language models are trained and improved
Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
