About me

I have been working as a translator for more than 15 years.

I have done approximately 3 million words of translation in connection with various fields (computer science, finance, economics, legal, technology, machinery, chemistry, business, management, etc.) including several complex translation projects each consisting of several hundreds of pages.

I have collected short descriptions of selected translation projects that I have worked on. Please expand the Project History section of my ProZ profile to see the list.

To see samples of my translations please expand the Portfolio section.

I specialize in IT/Computers which is also my field of professional proficiency and interest. I have a university degree diploma in Computer science & Informatics. I enjoy working with IT/Computers related text the most, but I also have extensive experience and background in translating other types of texts, mostly technical. I guess I'm quite a rare combination of IT professional and a translator at the same time.

I can also fully offer my translation services in the field of general business. I have been on executive positions in various companies in the last 15 years and also have extensive experience in translating general business related texts.

Perhaps it is worth mentioning that my knowledge of Slovenian language is far above average. I'm author of several textbooks (IT) and other published texts. I'm sure you are very much aware that knowledge of foreign language alone is not sufficient to produce top quality translations. You will appreciate the fact that you can expect me to deliver perfectly Slovenian sounding translations.

I'm experienced in using TRADOS - most of my translation projects are done with this CAT tool. I’m also proficient in using SDLX and Idiom.

For several years I lived in New Zealand, deepening my understanding of English.

Currently I work for several translation agencies based in Slovenia, Slovakia, United Kingdom, France, USA, Canada, Italy, Luxemburg and Japan.

You can contact me via ProZ or directly on my email: djamsek@triera.net. For more information please visit my web site.
