TITLE:Remote Transcriptionist Jobs – Full‑Time (Medical & Legal Audio Transcription) – Westminster, Colorado – Competitive $45‑$55 kSalary – Experienced Typist & Captioner Preferred – Work From Anywhere with Flexible Hours --- Who we are We’re a midsized, family‑grown content services firm that started in a cramped garage in Westminster, Colorado fifteen years ago. Back then, we were three college friends who loved turning messy recordings into readable text for local doctors, attorneys, and podcasters.Today, we’ve grown to a 78‑person team spread across three continents, but the core mission hasn’t changed: deliver clean, accurate transcripts faster than anyone else while treating every speaker’s voice with respect. Why this role exists nowThe pandemic accelerated video‑first communication. Our existing clients in Westminster, Colorado and beyond have seen a 42 % jump in recorded webinars, court hearings, and tele‑health visits. They need reliable hands to convert those audio files into searchable text, closed captions, and compliant medical records.We’re expanding our transcription desk to meet that surge, and we want a seasoned specialist who can keep quality high while our volume climbs to 3,200 minutes per month. What you’ll do (the day‑to‑day) - Listen, type, verify. You’ll receive encrypted audio or video files (often in.wav,.mp3, or.m4a) through our secure portal and produce verbatim transcripts in Microsoft Word or Google Docs, aiming for a minimum 95 % accuracy rate. - Specialized formatting. For medical dictations we follow AMA style; for legal recordings we apply Bluebook citations; for general media we embed timestamps every 30 seconds.- Quality control loop. After finishing a file, you’ll run a quick Grammarly check, then flag any questionable passages for a senior review. Roughly 10 % of all assignments get a second‑pair‑of‑eyes pass. - Caption creation. You’ll generate.srt files for video content, syncing captions with the speaker’s cadence using Audacity’s waveform view. - Client interaction (light). Occasionally you’ll hop on a Zoom or Microsoft Teams call with a practitioner in Westminster, Colorado to clarify ambiguous speech or confirm industry‑specific terminology.- Tool stewardship. You’ll maintain our shared library of macro scripts for Express Scribe and keep the Otter.ai transcription engine tuned (we retrain its custom vocabularies monthly). - Metrics & reporting. Each week you’ll log turnaround time (target ≤ 48 hours for most files) and accuracy scores into Trello, feeding the data to our ops manager for SLA tracking. The tech stack you’ll own 1. Express Scribe – foot‑pedal integration for hands‑free playback. 2. Audacity – waveform editing and noise‑reduction.3. Dragon NaturallySpeaking – optional speech‑to‑text assistance for heavy‑accent material. 4. Otter.ai – automated rough draft generation we polish manually. 5. Microsoft Word (latest Office 365) – our primary formatting engine. 6. Google Docs – for real‑time collaboration on large projects. 7. Rev.com API – fallback transcription service when audio quality is poor. 8. Zoom / Microsoft Teams – secure video calls for clarification. 9. Slack – day‑to‑day communication with the editing and client‑success teams.10. Trello – Kanban board that tracks each file’s status (queued, in‑progress, QC, delivered). 11. Grammarly Business – to catch stray typos before the final hand‑off. 12. Adobe Acrobat Pro – for PDF export of final documents with embedded metadata. What success looks like - Speed: Average turnaround under 45 hours for 90 % of assignments, with a 2‑hour “express” lane for urgent medical reports. - Accuracy: 98 % clean‑read score (as measured by our internal auditor) on every file that reaches the client.- Volume: Handle 12–18 hours of audio per week, scaling up to 25 hours during peak months without missing deadlines. - Client satisfaction: Maintain a 4.8‑out‑5 rating on post‑delivery surveys, especially from clinics in Westminster, Colorado that rely on timely charting. Who you are - Experienced typist. Minimum 2 years of professional transcription work, preferably with a blend of medical and legal exposure. - Detail‑oriented. You catch the “uh‑m‑hm” that changes a dosage from 5 mg to 50 mg and you know the difference between “plaintiff” and “plenum.” - Tech‑savvy.Comfortable configuring foot‑pedals, setting up custom vocab lists in Dragon, and troubleshooting audio glitches in Audacity. - Self‑managed. This role is 100 % remote, so you’ll schedule your own day, meet SLA targets, and keep your workspace quiet enough for high‑fidelity listening. - Communicative. You can write a concise clarification email to a lawyer in Westminster, Colorado and still sound friendly. - Adaptable. Our client mix changes weekly; one day you may be transcribing a cardiology conference, the next a court deposition on intellectual‑property law.Compensation & benefits - Base salary: $45,000 – $55,000 annually, prorated for part‑time if you prefer a 30‑hour week. - Performance bonus: Up to 8 % of base pay for hitting quarterly accuracy and speed targets. - Flexible schedule: Choose your core hours (any 4‑hour block) and work whenever you’re most productive. -Remote stipend: $150/month toward internet, ergonomic gear, or home‑office utilities. - Paid time off: 15 days of PTO + 10 public holidays (including Texas Independence Day for our Westminster, Colorado crew).-Professional development: Annual $1,000 credit for courses (e.g., Medical Terminology, Legal Writing,Advanced Typing). - Health & wellness: Full medical, dental, vision coverage for you and one dependent. A human moment > “I was on a call with a pediatrician in Westminster, Colorado who’d just finished a 2‑hour tele‑health marathon. He’d been shouting “syringe” into his mic and we kept hearing “sir-inge.” After a quick Zoom, we laughed, corrected the file, and the doctor sent a thank‑you note saying the transcript saved his patient’s life.That’s why I love what we do – it’s not just words on a page; it’s real impact.” – Maya,Senior Transcription LeadOur culture in practice We run a weekly “Coffee & Caption” huddle on Zoom where team members share unusual terminology they’ve encountered (think “pseudoscopically‑induced tachycardia”) and vote on the best mnemonic to remember it. We also have a “Transcribe‑the‑World” Slack channel where you can post a funny audio snippet from a client in Westminster, Colorado (always with permission) and let the team guess the speaker’s accent.It keeps the remote vibe lively and reminds us we’re all humans behind the keyboards. FAQ - Do I need a specific degree? No. We value proven transcription experience and a high typing speed (≥ 80 wpm) more than a formal diploma. - Is this truly remote? Yes. All files are uploaded to our encrypted AWS bucket, and you can work from anywhere – as long as you have a quiet space and a reliable internet connection. - What’s the expected weekly workload? Full‑time is 40 hours, which usually translates to 15–20 hours of audio.Part‑time can be negotiated down to 20 hours total (≈ 8 hours of audio). - Will I get a headset? We provide a $100 stipend for a headset of your choice; many of our team members opt for the Sennheiser PC 8 USB for its noise‑cancelling mic. - How do you protect client confidentiality? All data is transferred via SFTP with end‑to‑end encryption. Every employee signs an NDA and must complete HIPAA and GDPR training before accessing any file. 1. Submit your résumé (PDF) with a brief cover letter that mentions your most challenging transcription project.2. Attach a 2‑minute audio sample you’ve transcribed (or a link to a publicly available clip) so we can gauge your accuracy and formatting style. 3. Complete the short typing test on our portal – we aim for ≥ 80 wpm with ≤ 2 % error rate. 4. Interview Loop: A 30‑minute video chat with our Hiring Manager (who lives in Westminster, Colorado), followed by a 1‑hour live transcription exercise with a senior editor. If you love the quiet rhythm of a well‑timed keystroke, thrive on turning chaotic recordings into clear documentation, and want to be part of a team that’s still rooted in the same garage mindset we launched in Westminster, Colorado, we’d love to hear from you.* We are an equal‑opportunity employer. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, or veteran status.* Apply tot his job
