Position Summary 

The Translator Training Specialist designs and delivers e-learning and live training for Deluxe’s global network of freelance translators and editors, with a special focus on Korean and the APAC region. Training covers software and tooling, subtitling and localization best practices, AI-enhanced workflows, and content security. 

This role is built for a linguist who wants to move into training — someone who has done the work and can teach it. Your firsthand experience as a translator or editor is what will make the training credible and practical, because you’ll be teaching skills you’ve applied yourself. 

Working with a global team, you’ll facilitate learning for localization vendors and freelancers from diverse cultural, educational, and technical backgrounds, with particular attention to the needs and expectations of linguists across APAC. You’ll research, write, and build course content alongside the E-Learning Manager, and contribute to team work including learning outreach, course-completion tracking, course testing, documentation updates, software testing, and gathering data on how training affects freelancer participation, quality, and satisfaction. 

The training team works cross-functionally with Talent Acquisition, Community Support, Linguistic Quality, and Translator Resources to strengthen the skills and quality of the translator community. You’ll also collaborate and share knowledge with the internal training team, who support employee workflows in parallel. This position is based in Seoul and reports to the E-Learning Manager, Localization.
