Localization Manager

Alconost helps digital products speak the language of their users. We localize software, games, apps, and websites into 120+ languages, and we're looking for a Localization Manager to join our growing team. This is a remote, full-time role on a contractor basis for someone who wants to learn fast, grow hard, and make a global impact.

Who We're Looking For

You're probably early in your career - maybe a freelance translator, linguist, or language tutor who's also a tech enthusiast. You love languages, but you also have a technical mind and great communication skills. You're good with spreadsheets, maybe familiar with Python or JavaScript, but chose not to become a full-time software developer. You're curious about AI tools, and you believe localization is more than translation - it's a bridge between cultures.

We'd love to meet you if you:

• Have some experience in translation or game localization
• Are fluent in English, with a second foreign language
• Have international work/study experience
• Are organized, responsible, and meet deadlines
• Know how to work with spreadsheets (Excel/Google Sheets)
• Have some technical background (basic scripting, CAT tools, TMS, etc.)
• Use or are curious about AI tools and LLMs
• Want to grow into a professional Localization Project Manager in 3-6 months

What You'll Do

• Manage localization projects for global clients - apps, games, websites, software
• Work with translators and editors from all over the world
• Communicate with clients in different time zones
• Monitor deadlines, quality, and budgets
• Master and implement localization tools (TMS, AI workflows)
• Support continuous improvement of our AI-enhanced localization process

What You'll Get

• Training and mentorship to grow from junior to pro in localization project management
• Flexible remote work - you manage your time (as long as deadlines are met)
• The chance to make a real impact: your work will bring apps and games to millions worldwide
• A supportive, smart, no-BS, inclusive team culture
• No time tracking, no micromanagement - just ownership and results
• A future in one of the most meaningful jobs in tech (~10,000 professionals worldwide)

Why This Role Matters

Localization managers are the hidden heroes behind global launches. Sometimes, your mom will open an app and you'll say: "I was behind its translation." If you stay with us, you'll grow into a senior role or operations lead. If you move on, you'll be in demand at any product company with global ambitions.
