Language
is the Interface

Localization QA Specialist. Ten years building linguistic, cultural & technical systems that ensure Spanish Latin American content feels native — from AAA games to global fintech. I also build the tooling that keeps QA honest at scale.

§ 01 / capabilities

Where language meets precision.

I don't just review text. I build systems — tooling, rubrics, pipelines — that ensure every localized word performs at the highest standard. Chrome extensions, GPT evaluators, MQM-style reports, all humming in the background while the language does its job.

§ 02 / philosophy

Two questions. One bar.

the industry asks

"Is it
translated?"

A checkbox answer. Volume, speed, delivery. Often enough to ship. Rarely enough to resonate.

I ask

"Does it feel
native?"

A craft answer. Rhythm, register, the pulse of how people actually speak. That's the bar I hold every string to.

§ 03 / experience
