Hello, I wish to apply for any available vacancy as Portuguese or Spanish translator. I'm native in Portuguese, having a university degree in Portuguese/English and a master in Portuguese /Spanish. During the past 8 years I have done translation jobs either to private or public institutions. Currently, I'm teaching in Portugal, but available to work in any project around the world. I wish to make translations part of my everyday routine, instead of being a side-job occupation.

Education and certificates:

Qualified professional English/Portuguese translator (since 2005) with excellent communication and interpersonal skills. Hard-working, friendly and very attentive to delivery terms. Fast, reliable and affordable. Knowledgeable in Architecture, Engineering, Environmental Sciences, Finance, Logistics, Management, Manufacturing, Marketing, Medical Sciences, Pharma, Life Sciences, Technology, and Travel/Tourism. Many books translated on the above subjects (please, see my LinkedIn profile at https://www.linkedin.com/in/luiz-claudio-de-queiroz-faria-7091a42b/). Large experience translating marketing documentation, manuals, procedures, and e-learning content. Good experience in localization of websites and training material.

My experience as a translator ranges from technical documents to entertainment texts. I am a Law Bachelor and I have worked as a tax advisor, writing and proofreading documents in both English and Portuguese as daily jobs. I worked also on the Brazilian localization of EA’s FIFA 18 and Need for Speed Payback. My job was to ensure all texts and audio were properly translated for the Brazilian market, checking if these assets were correctly implemented in-game and that they fitted the game style and natural flow of the language. Such experience lit my desire of building bridges between different cultures and breaking down the language barriers between them. In my case, Portuguese is spoken by more than 255 million people, of which 210 million are Brazilians alone. However, the majority of the lusophone population has no understanding of the English language, and English speakers too have generally no knowledge of Portuguese. This is an obstacle I want to help undo.

I'm a well established freelance translator, with great writing, localization and transcreation skills.
