AI Evaluation & Quality Assurance

Combining analytical judgement with linguistic expertise to evaluate AI-generated content, identify errors, and support improvements in model quality, accuracy, and reliability.

AI Evaluation & Verification

I evaluate AI-generated responses for factual accuracy, reasoning, relevance, instruction compliance, and overall usefulness. My work involves identifying errors, inconsistencies, unsupported claims, and other issues that affect the reliability and quality of model outputs.

 

Through structured assessments, comparative evaluations, and clear, evidence-based feedback, I help identify areas for improvement and support the refinement of AI systems across a range of tasks and subject areas.

Professional Background & Credentials

My work in AI evaluation is supported by a strong foundation in professional translation, linguistic analysis, and editorial quality assurance. I hold the CIOL Level 6 Certificate in Translation (CertTrans), awarded with distinctions in both units, and the DELE C1 Spanish qualification from the Instituto Cervantes.

 

Alongside my linguistic credentials, I have practical experience evaluating AI-generated responses, verifying factual claims, assessing speech and audio quality, and reviewing multimodal content. This combination of linguistic expertise and analytical judgement informs my approach to producing accurate, consistent, and evidence-based assessments.
