English Mandarin Chinese Translator
As a highly experienced and versatile professional, I possess a unique blend of linguistic expertise and burgeoning technical skills. Fluent in Cantonese, Mandarin Chinese, and English , I bring a decade of proven experience in media subtitle translation and content editing for a major international broadcaster. My linguistic qualifications include a CET-6 certification and a Bachelor's degree in Business English. I am adept at ensuring clarity and quality in all translated materials, with a substantial portfolio of historical work to demonstrate my capabilities.
My professional approach embraces innovative technologies; I have successfully integrated AI tools like Gemini's canvas into my translation workflow for pre-translation and to facilitate deeper thought and human-centric refinement of content. This experience allows me to efficiently leverage AI to enhance productivity and quality.
Beyond my linguistic acumen, I have developed practical programming skills in VBA, Python, and Solidity, and am proficient in deploying smart contracts on EVM chains. While I do not hold formal IT certifications , my hands-on experience in the DeFi space includes understanding and utilizing flash loans (specifically Balancer V2) for arbitrage, along with in-depth knowledge of platforms like Curve, Uniswap V3, and Uniswap V2 clones. I have successfully executed multiple arbitrage transactions, including large ones totaling 0.06505068 BTC, and retain the Python codebases used for these operations and for scanning price discrepancies. I also have experience developing strategies for collateralized borrowing and leverage trading using Compound V3. I can provide real-life proof of my technical capabilities and ongoing DeFi activities. My focus within Web3 is on EVM protocol research for arbitrage.
I am a results-oriented individual who thrives in independent work environments. I am seeking a full-time, remote position that values practical experience and adaptability.
