Summary Generated by Built In

Alconost is on a mission to help 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 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 or a linguist, language tutor, who's also a tech enthusiast. You love languages, but you also have a technical mind and great communication skills - someone who's 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, 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 (CAT tools, TMS, AI workflows)
  • Support continuous improvement of our AI-enhanced localization process
🚀 What You'll Get
  • Training & 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.

  • Experience in translation or game localization
