About the Role

Awin is bringing localization for its core languages in-house and building a dedicated team of professional linguists supported by AI translation technology and a robust quality framework.

This is a hands-on role with significant ownership. You will be responsible for the quality, consistency, and cultural relevance of Awin's content in your language across the product, help center, marketing materials, and customer communications. As the dedicated linguist for your market, you will own language standards, terminology, and linguistic assets while helping shape how localization operates at Awin.

In addition to language work, you will support the wider localization program through translation management, asset maintenance, documentation, and stakeholder collaboration.

What You Will Do

• Post-edit AI-generated content and translate or transcreate content where required, ensuring high-quality, publication-ready translations across product, support, and marketing content.
• Own and maintain linguistic assets, including glossaries, style guides, terminology, and translation memories, continuously improving translation quality and consistency.
• Review localized content in context, ensuring linguistic accuracy, cultural relevance, and suitability within product interfaces.
• Support localization operations by helping manage translation requests, documentation, workflows, and stakeholder communication.
• Act as the primary language expert for your market, providing guidance on linguistic decisions and localization best practices.
• Contribute to ongoing quality improvement initiatives, terminology governance, and localization process development.

What We Are Looking For

Essential

• Native or C2 level speaker of the target language (French/Spanish) with excellent cultural and linguistic fluency.
• 3+ years of professional translation, localization, or linguistic experience, including translating from English.
• Experience with machine translation post-editing and AI-assisted localization workflows.
• Experience localizing software, digital products, or online content.
• Knowledge of terminology management, glossaries, translation memories, and localization best practices.
• Familiarity with translation quality frameworks such as MQM, DQF, or similar.
• Near-native or C2-level English with the ability to interpret nuance, tone, and context.
• Strong attention to detail, excellent organizational skills, and the ability to work independently.
• Interest in supporting localization operations beyond translation work.

Desirable

• Experience with Lokalise or other translation management systems.
• Previous experience in localization project coordination or management.
• Background in affiliate marketing, ad-tech, e-commerce, SaaS, or a related digital industry.
• Experience working as the sole linguist for a language or within a small in-house localization team.

This Role May Not Be the Right Fit If

• Your experience is primarily academic or literary translation without exposure to digital content or software localization.
• You are uncomfortable working with AI-assisted translation and post-editing workflows.
• You are looking for a role focused exclusively on translation rather than broader localization responsibilities.
