**About The Role**

We're building next-generation AI systems for aviation and autonomous flight — and we need people who actually understand what's being said on the radio. This is a rare opportunity to put your aviation knowledge to work on cutting-edge AI research, from anywhere in the world.

If you've ever listened to LiveATC for fun, logged hours in the pattern, worked a sector, or spent years around the flight deck — this role was made for you.

- Organization: Alignerr (Powered by Labelbox)

- Type: Hourly / Task-Based Contract

- Location: Fully Remote

- Commitment: 10–40 hours/week

**What You'll Do**

- Transcribe real-world Air Traffic Control (ATC) and pilot audio recordings with precision

- Label speakers, callsigns, clearances, instructions, and read-backs accurately

- Capture aviation-specific terminology, abbreviations, and standard phraseology correctly

- Work on flexible, task-based assignments at your own pace

- Maintain high accuracy standards — quality is critical in aviation AI

**Who You Are**

This role is ideal for:

- Pilots (student, private, commercial, or ATP)

- Air Traffic Controllers (current or former)

- Aviation professionals — dispatchers, flight ops, military aviation personnel

- Dedicated aviation enthusiasts who regularly listen to ATC audio and understand radio communications

You don't need a transcription background — but you **do ** need a solid command of aviation phraseology and the ear to catch fast, noisy, real-world radio communications.

**You Bring**

- Genuine familiarity with ATC and pilot radio communication norms

- The ability to decode garbled or fast-paced transmissions that would confuse a general transcriptionist

- Extreme attention to detail — a missed callsign or wrong instruction matters here

- Patience and consistency when working through audio tasks

- Self-motivation to work independently and meet quality benchmarks

**Nice to Have**

- Experience with LiveATC, scanner monitoring, or simulator flying

- Familiarity with ICAO or FAA phraseology standards

- Multi-engine, IFR, or professional aviation background

- Experience in any previous transcription or annotation work

**Why Join Us**

- Meaningful work — your transcriptions directly improve AI systems designed for aviation safety and autonomy

- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you

- Niche advantage — your aviation knowledge is genuinely rare and valued here

- Performance rewards — high-quality contributors get priority access to more work and stronger effective earnings

- Cutting-edge exposure — contribute to advanced AI research at the intersection of aviation and machine learning

- Global, collaborative community — work alongside other domain experts from around the world

- Potential for ongoing work — strong performers are first in line for extended contracts
