Japanese Localization Specialist | EN↔JA & ZH-CN→JA
I am a Japanese localization specialist with over 10 years of experience in technical translation, game localization, MTPE, editing, and linguistic QA.
My expertise includes translating and localizing technical documentation for manufacturing, industrial automation, automotive, IT, and software, as well as Japanese localization for mobile and PC games. I focus on producing translations that are accurate, culturally appropriate, and natural for native Japanese readers.
I have experience working with projects associated with major game publishers, adapting dialogue, UI, quests, and in-game content for Japanese audiences. I also handle technical manuals, user guides, and enterprise documentation with careful terminology management and consistency.
I work with leading CAT tools, including SDL Trados Studio, memoQ, Phrase (Memsource), Smartcat, and XTM, and I am comfortable working within established translation memories and style guides.
Services include translation, localization, MTPE, editing, proofreading, and linguistic quality assurance.
I am based in the United States and am available for remote freelance projects worldwide. I am committed to delivering high-quality translations, meeting deadlines, and building long-term relationships with agencies and direct clients..
