- Assist with content uploads and post-upload QA spot checks as needed in coordination with our internal team.
- Maintain clear audit logs and provide weekly progress updates, including time tracking by feature.
What we’re looking for

- Clear, organized documentation and communication skills.
- Basic spreadsheet proficiency and reliable file organization habits.

- Familiarity with image quality concepts (resolution, artifacts, legibility, compression issues).
- Interest in archives, metadata, digital publishing, editorial QA, or content operations.
