Strong problem‑solving skills, with a solutions‑oriented and detail‑focused approach.
Ability to work independently or collaboratively within distributed, multicultural teams.
Solid understanding of translation/localization workflows and multilingual content processes.
Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously in a fast‑paced environment.
Strong organizational discipline and commitment to operational excellence.

IT Skills:

Proficiency with CAT tools (e.g., SDL Trados, MemoQ) and machine translation environments.
