About the Opportunity
LILT is seeking a skilled Tibetan linguist to contribute to a high-visibility literary transcreation project. This work involves adapting text from English into Tibetan, preserving its idealistic, visionary, and reflective tone across a wide range of subject matters.

What You'll Deliver
Complete a paid sample transcreation as part of the selection process, based on an excerpt of the source text.
Adapt content spanning diverse domains (e.g., molecular biology, macroeconomics, political science, ethics, philosophy) while preserving the author's distinct voice and register.
Maintain the tone and intent of the original — idealistic, visionary, and reflective — throughout the adaptation.
Work from the source text as the basis for your transcreation, without deviating into original creative writing.

Qualifications
Native-level fluency and solid writing skills in Tibetan.
Demonstrable experience in literary translation or transcreation, ideally including work that required adapting voice and tone rather than literal translation.

Solid command of style, tone, and structure appropriate to reflective/literary prose.
