Job Description

As a Japanese Localization Intern at Rhombus Power, you will own the end-to-end Japanese language experience across our AI-powered tools, intelligence products, and digital platforms— ensuring that every word, interface element, and user-facing output is not only accurate, but culturally precise and operationally effective for Japanese-speaking audiences.

Our Localization team perform rigorous linguistic and cultural adaptation of English-language content into Japanese, guided by product requirements, client needs, and platform style standards. Outputs span UI localization, defense and military database terminology database, intelligence product translation, and Japanese-language AI training data.

Candidates must excel at collaborative work and exhibit strong interpersonal skills, as this role operates at the intersection of product, engineering, intelligence analysis, and business development teams.

Successful candidates will be detail-obsessed self-starters who can manage competing priorities across multiple product lines without sacrificing linguistic precision. This is a fast-paced environment where global events, product release cycles, and AI development timelines drive the pace.

A writing sample with English original and Japanese translation will be required as part of your application. All samples must be your own work, produced within the last three years, and should be one to three pages in length on a global affairs or international issues topic.  

Responsibilities

  • Translate and adapt English-language UI and product content into Japanese, ensuring readability and cultural fit across all platforms.
  • Translate military and defense terminology into Japanese and maintain a living database for consistent use across all products and platforms.
  • Translate intelligence assessments, analytical reports, and open-source research materials between English and Japanese in accordance with established analytical and stylistic standards.
  • Contribute to Japanese-language AI training datasets by performing linguistic annotation, prompt evaluation, fluency scoring, and structured feedback on model-generated Japanese outputs.
  • Identify localization gaps and work cross-functionally with product, engineering, and intelligence teams.

Qualifications

  • Native or near-native fluency in both Japanese and English (written and spoken).
  • Pursuing BA or BS in Asian Studies, International Affairs, or a similar social science.
  • Familiarity with military, governmental, and/or technical terminology is preferred.
  • Excellent interpersonal and collaborative skills.
  • Ability to work independently and proactively in a dynamic, fast-paced environment.
