We are looking for dedicated and detail-oriented closed captioners to join our team for a long-term position. This role involves creating accurate closed captions (CC) for videos containing mature and sensitive content, so applicants must be comfortable working with explicit material.


Key Responsibilities:

  • Create precise closed captions that capture dialogue, sounds, and important audio cues in the video. You'll have to transcribe the video on your own.
  • Ensure that captions are grammatically correct, punctuated appropriately, and formatted for readability (including proper line breaks).
  • Sync captions accurately with the video’s timeline for smooth, timed delivery.
  • Review and edit captions for accuracy and consistency.
  • Meet deadlines and maintain a professional approach to all assigned projects.


Deliverables:

  • Endorse at least 5 videos (30-40 minutes each) per week, after the initial ramp-up period.
  • Work on a full-time basis, 5 days a week.
  • While ample time will be given for each task, there may be occasional urgent requests that require faster turnaround.
  • Videos will vary in difficulty, with some being relatively easy and others requiring more time and attention.


Requirements:

  • Strong command of the English language, including grammar, punctuation, and spelling.
  • Ability to accurately sync captions with video audio.
  • Attention to detail in providing error-free captions.
  • Comfort working with mature-themed content, including sensitive or explicit material.
  • Full-time availability with consistent work hours.
  • Reliable internet connection and self-discipline for remote work.


Preferred Qualifications:

  • Prior experience in closed captioning or transcription is a plus, but beginners are encouraged to apply if you are a fast learner and trainable.
  • Familiarity with captioning software (such as Aegisub, Subtitle Workshop, etc.) is a bonus, but not required.
  • Basic knowledge of video formats, timecodes, or media files is helpful.


What We Offer:

  • Competitive pay based on your skills and experience.
  • Long-term work with consistent projects.
  • Opportunities to develop your skills in a supportive, remote work environment.


How to Apply:

  1. Submit a cover letter explaining why you’re a good fit for this role.
  2. Include any relevant samples of captioning or transcription work (if applicable).
  3. Confirm in your application that you’re comfortable working with mature-themed content and available to work full-time.


Important: Only serious candidates who meet the job criteria will be considered. Please ensure your application is free from errors to show your attention to detail.
