We're looking for fellows who are passionate about Chinese fiction—especially danmei—and want to help bring these stories to life in English.

 

At Rosmei, we believe in careful, artful translation that preserves the heart of the original while making it resonate in another language. Whether you're experienced or just starting out, if you have a strong command of both Chinese and English, a deep love for storytelling, and a sensitivity to tone and character, we’d love to hear from you.

 

We offer flexible, remote collaboration and a close-knit editorial team that values communication, quality, and care.

 

To apply, send a copy of your resume and a cover letter, and we will get back to you ASAP. Tests will be required, and upon evaluation, we will explore possible ways forward depending on the results.
