About Lyra Yuan
I’m passionate about localization, translation, and building seamless content workflows that connect people across languages and cultures. As a recent Localization Management graduate with hands-on experience in project coordination, QA, and vendor communication, I’ve supported global teams in delivering accurate, high-quality multilingual content. I’ve worked with TMS tools like Smartcat, Phrase, and MemoQ, and collaborated with both internal teams and external vendors to manage timelines, review translation quality, and maintain linguistic assets. Highlights so far: • Delivered over 1.5M+ bilingual segments for MT training, helping improve translation quality for AI pipelines • Coordinated localization projects in MemoQ and Smartcat with on-time delivery across 8+ languages • Supported QA issue resolution and terminology management to ensure end-user content quality I’m excited to keep growing in the localization field—especially in roles that allow me to learn from experienced teams, solve real-world challenges, and contribute to meaningful global projects. Let’s connect! Feel free to message me here on LinkedIn or reach out at x••••••••@gmail.com—happy to chat about localization, TMS, or your current team’s needs.
