Minjoong Shin

I am a senior English ↔ Korean linguist with 15+ years of experience in translation, localization, and linguistic quality assurance across ICT, automotive, clinical research, software (UI/UX), and regulatory domains.

My expertise lies in precision-driven technical localization, terminology management, and quality-focused linguistic work, including MT post-editing (MTPE), linguistic QA, and consistency validation across large-scale multilingual content. I have strong experience working with regulatory and standards-based materials (ISO, IEC, UN, OECD), software UI localization, and controlled language environments.

I have supported global clients including Amazon, LinkedIn, and HP through language service providers, handling clinical documentation, validation protocols, SOPs, UN materials, and ISO/TC standards content. I am also experienced in structured data formats such as XML, JSON, YAML, and .properties used in localization pipelines.

Recently, I have been transitioning into AI-related linguistic evaluation roles, including search quality evaluation, MT/LLM response assessment, and UI/UX linguistic QA, with a strong focus on guideline-based judgment, consistency, and context-sensitive evaluation.
