    Job Description

    Join the Lango Interpreter Network

    Are you a bilingual Maine interpreter looking for a career that actually matters? At Lango, we believe that language should never be a barrier to essential services. We are looking for independent contractors to step up as the vital link between our diverse communities and the providers they rely on.

    If you speak English and another language fluently, you can help your neighbors navigate life’s most important moments—from doctor’s visits to parent-teacher conferences.

    Why Partner With Us?

    • Total Flexibility: You’re the boss of your own schedule. Take the assignments that fit your life.

    • Diverse Environments: Work across medical, legal, educational, and social service sectors.

    • Fair Compensation: We offer competitive rates for your specialized skills.

    • Grow Your Skills: Access professional development and training to sharpen your interpreting craft.

    • Hybrid Options: While we focus on in-person impact in Maine, virtual opportunities occasionally arise.

    What You’ll Need

    • Language Mastery: Total fluency in English and a second language.

    • Eligibility: Must be authorized to work in the U.S. and hold at least a High School Diploma (or equivalent).

    • Reliability: You must be willing to travel locally within Maine for face-to-face appointments.

    • Screening: Success depends on passing a background check, drug test, and (for medical roles) providing standard immunization records (MMR, TB, Flu, etc.).

    • Certification: If you aren't already certified, you’ll just need to pass a proficiency test.

    • Note: Previous interpreting experience is a plus, but if you have the heart and the linguistic skills, we want to hear from you!

    The Logistics

    • Role Type: Freelance / Independent Contractor

    • Location: On-site throughout Maine

    • Pay: Competitive Contract Rates
