Aviation Communications Transcriber (ATC)

About The Role

We're building next-generation AI systems for aviation and autonomous flight — and we need people who actually understand the skies to help us do it.

This is not generic transcription work. We're looking for pilots, air traffic controllers, student pilots, and serious aviation enthusiasts to transcribe real-world ATC and pilot radio communications with the precision and domain knowledge that only comes from genuine aviation experience.

Your work will directly shape AI systems that support aviation safety and autonomy. If you've spent time on the radio or listening to live ATC feeds, this role was made for you.

• Organization: Alignerr (Powered by Labelbox)
• Type: Hourly / Task-Based Contract
• Location: Fully Remote
• Commitment: 10–40 hours/week
  
  

What You'll Do

• Transcribe real-world Air Traffic Control (ATC) and pilot audio recordings with high accuracy
• Label speakers, callsigns, ATC instructions, and pilot responses
• Accurately capture aviation terminology, standard phraseology, and abbreviations
• Complete task-based assignments independently, on your own schedule
• Maintain high quality and accuracy standards — precision is critical on this project
  
  

Who You Are

• A pilot, student pilot, air traffic controller, or aviation professional
• An aviation enthusiast who regularly listens to live ATC communications
• Someone with a solid command of aviation radio phraseology and callsign conventions
• Extremely detail-oriented and comfortable working with noisy, fast-paced audio
• Self-motivated and reliable when working independently
  
  

You do not need to be a professional transcriptionist — but you do need to genuinely understand how aviation communications work.

Nice to Have

• FAA or ICAO familiarity (Part 61, Part 91, or ATC training background)
• Experience with LiveATC, pilot simulators, or aviation radio monitoring
• Prior transcription, annotation, or data labeling experience
• Familiarity with AI training or data collection workflows
