About this role
About The Role We're building next-generation AI systems for aviation and autonomous flight — and we need people who speak the language of the skies. If you can tell a squawk code from a go-around instruction, this role was made for you. As an Aviation Communications Transcriber, you'll work with real-world Air Traffic Control (ATC) and pilot audio recordings, producing high-quality transcriptions that directly train AI systems used in aviation safety and autonomy. This is specialized, meaningful work at the intersection of aviation expertise and cutting-edge AI development. Organization: Alignerr (Powered by Labelbox) Type: Hourly / Task-Based Contract Location: Remote Commitment: 10–40 hours/week What You'll Do Transcribe real-world ATC ↔ pilot audio recordings with precision Label speakers, callsigns, clearances, instructions, and read-backs accurately Capture aviation-specific terminology, abbreviations, and standard phraseology Work on task-based assignments at your own pace and schedule Consistently meet quality and accuracy standards critical to AI training integrity Who You Are A pilot, student pilot, Air Traffic Controller, dispatcher, or aviation professional An aviation enthusiast with a strong working knowledge of radio communications Someone who understands ICAO/FAA phraseology and can parse fast, noisy radio audio Extremely detail-oriented with patience for careful audio work Reliable and self-motivated — you take accuracy seriously You don't need to be a professional transcriptionist. You do need to understand aviation communications at a genuine level.
