Description:

Translation Coordinator

Maxim Integrated Products, located in Sunnyvale, California, seeks a
Translation Coordinator to oversee the translation process for
marketing materials into a variety of languages. If you are an
excellent communicator, well organized, detailed- oriented, and can
juggle multiple projects and deadlines, read on!

Position Description
This is a high visibility position that directly impacts the success
of the company. Working with our professional translation staff, and
desktop publishers, you will coordinate Marketing Communications
translation efforts. This is NOT a translation position and you are
not required to do the translations yourself. Instead, you will
oversee the translation process by outside translators. You will
monitor and track several stages of editing, proof film and ensure
delivery to appropriate reproduction services. You will also help
coordinate the ongoing development of one of our Asian-language
websites.

You must demonstrate proven success at coordinating multiple projects
under tight deadlines. You consider yourself an exceptional editor and
proofreader when attention to detail is essential. Your scheduling and
project management skills are equally solid, and you are always ready
to react, prioritize and reschedule as situations change. You are
comfortable with self- directed efforts and team participation. And
most importantly, you are a hands-on doer, someone who takes charge of
projects and owns all facets of the work from start to completion.

Please note that we are considering local candidates only at this
time.

Primary Responsibilities
- Organize and schedule translation efforts
- Proof and review all translated drafts
- Ensure that all projects adhere to company standards for format,
style and content accuracy
- Track project schedules, maintain project records and adjust as
priorities shift

Key Qualifications
- Excellent editing and proofreading skills; translation and/or
localization experience a definite plus!
- Proficiency in at least one foreign language
- A bachelor's degree or equivalent 
- 2 years of experience coordinating multiple projects under tight
deadlines.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills
- Proficiency in Microsoft Word and Excel 
- Experience with engineering and electronics terminology a plus
- Experience with website development a plus

Maxim Integrated Products is a leading international supplier of
quality analog and digital products for applications that require
real-world signal processing. Located in Sunnyvale, California, we are
a fast-paced, fast-growing company ready to offer the right candidate
a high-visibility role and highly competitive compensation.
