English-Bulgarian Translator | Localization QA & MTPE Specialist

Hi there! I'm a Bulgarian native speaker who's spent the last year+ deep in the world of English↔Bulgarian translation and localization quality — and honestly, I love this work! Before that, I spent 9 years in corporate quality management, so checking things carefully and consistently is just how my brain works at this point. Here's what I can help you with: - English↔Bulgarian translation — product content, websites, marketing copy - Linguistic Quality Assurance (LQA) — spotting errors, classifying severity, scoring quality - Machine Translation Post-Editing (MTPE) and MT output evaluation - Auditing and improving translation quality on existing content - Reviewing localized websites and e-commerce content A bit about how I work: Most translators will catch a wrong word. I'm more likely to notice why it keeps happening — because for 9 years, finding patterns in quality issues was literally my job before it became something I do for love of language. At iHerb, this meant working hands-on with machine translation output, scoring translations against quality rubrics, and helping improve product and website content at scale, not just polishing one document at a time. I also come from a marketing/SEO background, which turns out to be genuinely useful in localization — I can tell when a "technically correct" translation just won't land with local readers, and I know how to make content feel natural while still doing its job (whether that's converting a sale or ranking well in search). And on top of all that, I've also gotten to work hands-on training and evaluating AI language models, which gives me a nice behind-the-scenes understanding of how MT actually learns — something that comes in handy every time I'm post-editing or scoring. A little more about me: - Top Rated Plus freelancer - 100% Job Success Score - Bachelor's degree, plus a background in English-language pre-school education - 9 years in corporate quality management - 1+ year of EN-BG translation/LQA/MTPE work for iHerb - Hands-on experience training and evaluating AI language models If you need someone who cares as much about consistency and quality as they do about language itself, I'd love to hear about your project! Kind regards, Gerry Georgieva
