Aviation Communications Transcriber (AI Training)
About the Role
We're building next-generation AI systems for aviation and autonomous flight — and we need people who actually understand what's happening on the radio.
This isn't generic transcription work. We're looking for pilots, controllers, aviation students, and enthusiasts who can accurately capture real-world ATC and pilot communications and turn them into high-quality training data that powers the future of aviation AI.
Your work will directly contribute to AI systems designed to improve safety and autonomy in the skies.

What You'll Do
Transcribe real-world ATC ↔ pilot audio recordings with precision
Label speakers, callsigns, instructions, and read-backs accurately
Correctly capture aviation-specific terminology, abbreviations, and standard phraseology
Work through task-based assignments independently, at your own pace
Consistently meet quality and accuracy standards on every submission
---
Who You Are
A pilot, student pilot, air traffic controller, or aviation professional
An aviation enthusiast with a strong working knowledge of radio communications
Someone who can recognize and correctly transcribe standard ICAO/FAA phraseology
Extremely detail-oriented — you notice when a readback is slightly off
Patient and focused when working with fast-paced, noisy audio
No formal transcription background required — aviation knowledge is what matters
---
Why This Work Matters
ATC communications are complex, fast, and filled with domain-specific language that generic AI simply can't handle well. The accurate, expert transcriptions you provide become the training signal that helps aviation AI systems understand real-world communications — improving safety systems, autonomous flight tools, and pilot assistance technologies.
This is rare, meaningful work that only people with your background can do well.
