About us:
Apertera is building a dedicated Language Technology & Workflow Automation team to help accelerate and scale how our Professional Translation business operates. This team will improve productivity, quality, and scalability across intake, quoting, project setup, translation workflows, linguistic assets, QA, reporting, and system integrations.
We are looking for a senior technical lead who can understand translation operations, drive automation initiatives, and help establish and manage a small agile team that turns operational friction into reliable, auditable tooling.
This role sits at the intersection of translation operations, language technology, automation, and AI-enabled workflow design. Much of our work is high-precision financial, legal, and securities translation, where quality, confidentiality, repeatability, and auditability matter. The role is not about applying AI for its own sake; it is about using the right combination of language technology, workflow automation, linguistic assets, operational data, and AI-enabled tools to improve real production workflows.

Build and operationalize automation and workflow orchestration across Professional Translation, connecting production systems into reliable, auditable workflows that reduce manual effort and meet client confidentiality and security requirements.
Linguistic-asset leverage
