How do I apply to work at Taika Translations?
Email your resume to projects@taikatranslations.com with the role in the subject line. Taika Translations — a remote-first, veteran-owned company founded in 2009 — reviews applications on a rolling basis. Current openings include project management and sales roles, and experienced translators and interpreters in 300+ languages are always welcome to join the linguist network.
Work that disappears, or work that matters
Plenty of jobs turn effort into output nobody sees. At a small company doing language work, the opposite is true: every project you manage or translate helps someone file their paperwork, understand a diagnosis, or reach a new market — and on a small team, everyone notices when it's done well.
A small team with a long track record
Founded in 2009, Taika Translations is a debt-free, veteran-owned company that has delivered 80,000+ projects through a network of 2,000+ vetted linguists in 300+ languages — and hires above all for three qualities: Humble, Hungry, and Smart.
