VeraContent is a multilingual content agency that helps global brands and institutions craft high-quality content across languages and markets. Our team of language professionals, editors and strategists works together to create meaningful stories, especially when those stories involve complex topics and specialized audiences.

We’re currently collaborating with a company that develops software solutions for design, architecture and construction professionals. Their tools help streamline communication and document management across complex building projects.

We already have a small team of linguists working on this project, but we’re now looking to expand our team with additional freelance translators.

We’re seeking English-to-French translators who are interested in joining us for this ongoing collaboration. The content has a moderately technical nature, as it targets a niche audience of architects, engineers, contractors and logistics professionals. While the texts are not highly complex, familiarity with the technical language and tone of the industry is highly recommended.

You’ll work on a range of content types, from white papers, eBooks and blog posts to internal communications, emails and image localizations.

This role is ideal for translators who are:

• Comfortable working with technical or B2B content.
• Curious about the architecture, construction and engineering sectors.
• Interested in gaining experience with a dynamic multilingual agency.

The purpose of this project is to create multilingual content that sounds natural, fluid and relevant for native audiences.

You’ll be working with the client’s translation platform, Smartling, so previous experience with this tool would be appreciated.

Main responsibilities

• Translate a variety of technical and semi-technical copy from US English into French.
• Conduct in-depth research on the client’s products, use cases and benefits.
• Update and maintain the client’s style guide and terminology glossary.
• Question source material when needed, raising queries or suggesting improvements.
• Collaborate closely with internal project managers and other linguists.
• Ensure all translations are accurate, clear and engaging for the audience.

Requirements

• Native-level French.
• Proven experience translating or writing about technical subjects (ideally related to construction, architecture or engineering).
• Experience using Smartling (appreciated).
• Strong research skills and attention to detail.
• Comfortable communicating questions and terminology suggestions.
• Proactive, self-motivated and reliable under deadlines.
• Familiarity with editorial workflows and cloud-based tools.

We offer:

• Flexible, fully remote freelance setup.
• Opportunity to work on an international, high-impact technical project.
• Collaboration with a multicultural, multilingual team of content professionals.
