Brazilian Portuguese > English: Freelance academic translators needed

Leverage your scientific knowledge and professional experience to carve out a career as a freelance academic Portuguese (Brazilian) to English translator with CACTUS. Join our global (in-house & telecommute) team that includes 600+ doctors, engineers, PhDs, post-docs, peer reviewers, BELS-certified editors, and researchers from across the science spectrum, all with one common passion—effective science communication.

We are looking for experienced translators to work on academic manuscripts written in Brazilian Portuguese. To be a Cactus freelance translator, you must have knowledge of the academic writing style and conventions in the fields of medicine and the life sciences. Experience working in a foreign-language setting will be preferred. Essentially, your work will involve translating an academic research paper from Brazilian Portuguese into English. The aim is to help researchers get published in English language journals and thus effectively communicate their work to a wider scientific community.

• An understanding and knowledge of technical terminology as expressed in Brazilian Portuguese as well as in English (highly preferred)
• An advanced degree in medicine or the life sciences (preferred)
