Crimson Interactive Pvt. Ltd | Current Openings in Mumbai


Crimson Interactive Pvt. Ltd. provides English language solutions to individuals and corporate customers worldwide. We are principally engaged in language editing, transcription, and translation services.


Job Position: Academic Research Editor, Physical Sciences and Engineering

Location: Mumbai

Copyeditors always serve the needs of three constituencies:
  • the author(s) -- the person (or people) who wrote or compiled the manuscript
  • the publisher -- the person or company that is paying the cost of producing the printed material
  • the readers -- the people for whom the material is being produced
  • All these parties share one basic desire: an error-free publication. To that end, the copyeditor acts as the author's second pair of eyes, pointing out--and usually correcting--mechanical errors and inconsistencies; errors or infelicities of grammar, usage, and syntax; and errors or inconsistencies in content. If you like alliterative mnemonic devices, you can conceive of a copyeditor's chief concerns as comprising the '4 Cs'--clarity, coherency, consistency, and correctness--in service of the 'Cardinal C': communication.
