As a Portuguese Speaking Interpreter, you will facilitate clear, accurate communication between English speaking healthcare providers and Portuguese speaking patients, without adding, omitting, or changing the meaning of what is said. Sessions take place on camera, so a professional presence and a dedicated, quiet workspace are essential. This is a client facing role. You will interact directly with patients and healthcare professionals in sensitive, and sometimes high pressure, medical situations, so composure, confidentiality, and cultural sensitivity matter as much as language skill. Candidates go through a structured evaluation process (resume review, phone interview, recorded prescreen, a medical interpreting proficiency assessment, and a final interview), and successful candidates complete a foundations training programme before starting live sessions. Key Responsibilities Provide accurate, complete, and respectful video interpreting between English and Portuguese, with occasional over-the-phone sessions. Facilitate communication faithfully, without adding, omitting, or altering the speakers' meaning. Follow professional interpreter ethics, standards of practice, and company procedures. Maintain confidentiality and comply with applicable healthcare privacy requirements. Demonstrate cultural responsiveness and respect for differing backgrounds, communication styles, and patient preferences. Maintain professional conduct before, during, and after each session, and use sound judgement around interpreter role boundaries. Adapt to evolving technology, workflows, and service requirements. Take part in required training, coaching, and quality related activities. Requirements Required Skills & Experience Fluent, professional level verbal communication in both English and Portuguese. A genuine understanding of what medical interpreting involves. This can come from informal experience, such as interpreting for family members, rather than formal employment. Ability to interpret medical information accurately and completely in English and Portuguese. Comfort working with video conferencing platforms and adapting to new remote technology. Comfortable working within the US healthcare context. A dedicated home workspace reserved for this role: a private, distraction-free room with a door that locks, where no one else can see your screen while you work, and wired high speed internet (no Wi-Fi, hotspot, satellite, or DSL). This is not a typical work-from-anywhere remote role, given the confidential nature of the sessions. Comfortable being on camera for the majority of each shift. Based in Brazil, available to work remotely.
