[HIRING] Remote Part-Time App Tester & Transcriptionist – $28/hr, 5–10 hrs/week (Seattle area preferred)
Hi r/SeattleJobs! I run a small Seattle startup that builds booking software for local fitness studios and salons. I’m looking for a detail-oriented person to test our app and transcribe customer interviews. The work is fully remote and flexible.
What you’ll do
- Test our app: Book, reschedule, and cancel a class on your phone while screen-recording, then log anything confusing in a shared sheet. Example: “On iPhone, the ‘Confirm’ button is hidden behind the keyboard on the payment page.”
- Give feedback: Compare draft pages or competitor apps and tell us what’s clear or confusing.
- Transcribe interviews: 20–45 minute recordings with 2 speakers, delivered within 48 hours.
Pay
- $28/hr for testing and feedback
- $1.75 per audio minute for transcription (a 30-minute interview pays $52.50)
- Paid every two weeks via direct deposit or PayPal
- Typical month: $700-$1,200
Requirements
- You notice small details and write clearly
- You have a computer, a smartphone, and reliable internet
- You type 50+ WPM accurately
- 5–10 hours a week, on your own schedule
This is an independent contractor (1099) role. We’ll never ask you to pay for anything.
To apply
DM me a few sentences about yourself and your availability. Also include one thing that annoys you about a website or app you use, and how you’d fix it. Top applicants get a paid $35 trial task.
