• Graduate degree (Master’s or PhD strongly preferred) from a U.S. university, ideally with a focus in Finance, Economics, or Risk Management.
• Native proficiency in written Simplified Chinese and strong ability to translate complex concepts clearly and accurately.
• Native-level proficiency in English, with proven ability to accurately interpret complex financial and technical concepts.
• Prefer 3–5 years of professional translation experience, ideally in financial services, education, or certification programs.
• Familiarity with industry-specific terminology (e.g., credit risk, market risk, operational risk, quantitative analysis, AI/ML in risk).
• Strong attention to detail and ability to deliver high-quality work under strict deadlines.
• Commitment to maintaining confidentiality and professional integrity.

Preferred Skills:

• Prior experience translating standardized exam content or professional education materials.
