Portuguese Audio Recording Expert (Brazil)

What you'll do

The customer wants Brazilian Portuguese speech that sounds like real people talking, captured to broadcast standard. You record audio on professional-grade equipment, interpreting project guidelines so each sample is clear, natural and fits its context, and then review your own takes for linguistic accuracy before they go in.

The variety matters. This listing is specifically for Brazil, so the target is Brazilian pronunciation and intonation (the open vowels, the palatalised t and d before i, the rhythm that sets it apart from European Portuguese) rather than a neutral or Lisbon-leaning read. A speaker who code-switches between regional accents should ask which one the project wants.

Onboarding includes supplying a professional audio sample that shows off both your voice and your setup. After that, the work is steady delivery against file formatting, consistency and clarity standards, with feedback from remote project coordinators along the way.

Who fits

• Native-level Brazilian Portuguese with strong pronunciation and intonation
• About three years of professional audio recording or voice work
• Proficiency with high-end recording equipment and industry-standard editing tools
• A portfolio of audio work, ideally media, broadcasting or educational content
• Familiarity with audio QA processes and comfort with feedback-driven remote work

These are listed as preferred qualifications. The practical must-have: your professional audio equipment available during the interview.

What it pays

$20–40/hour, micro1's published band, the same as its Mandarin recording listing. The ceiling is double the floor and the ad does not say what decides placement. It also does not say whether pay is per hour of your time or per hour of accepted audio. No payment schedule is published.

Worth knowing

Good:

• Brazilian voice actors, podcasters and narrators with a home studio can reuse existing gear
• A portfolio counts, so demonstrable past work helps directly
• 25 openings, remote, no country restriction stated

Less good:

• Equipment is your cost, and a sample recording is part of getting in
• A $20 floor is thin for three years of professional audio experience
• Pay mechanics are not explained, which matters a great deal on recording work
• No weekly hours, project length or volume are stated
• Contractor engagement: no benefits, your own tax to manage
• The customer is not named
