About C5i
Founded in 2000, C5i enables organisations to make the most effective strategic and tactical moves relating to their customers, markets and competition, at the pace the digital business world demands. We build AI products: Agent5i, our enterprise agentic AI system; Compete, digital shelf analytics for brands selling through retail; Incivus, creative effectiveness for marketing teams; and Synthetic Audiences, virtual respondents for research teams who need an answer faster than a panel can return one. Each has its own users, roadmap, release cycle and stack today, running across Azure, AWS and GCP.
What We Seek
You sit between what the products need to do and which method will actually do it. This is an internal product seat: no customer calendar, no pre-sales. The work is generative and agentic by default. Agent decomposition, tool and function contracts, orchestration, context assembly, retrieval design, guardrails and evaluation. Fine-tuning and domain-specific small models where they beat prompting on cost or accuracy. Knowing which to reach for,
and recognising when none of them is the answer, is most of the job.
Every capability as a feature resolves to one of three things: a pattern the products already support, something worth building once and using across all four, or a no. You make that call before engineering commits to it. Getting it wrong in the generous direction is how a product ends up with four implementations of the same idea.
This is a hands-on seat. You will specify an architecture and prototype it yourself in the same week. A design that reads well and cannot be built is a failure, and so is a method that works in a notebook and falls over at ten thousand users. The domain moves with the product: retail and consumer goods in Compete, marketing in Incivus, research in Synthetic Audiences, and whatever Agent5i lands in next. Depth in method transfers, depth in a single industry does not, and we are hiring for the former. Your designs
