What they're building

AI products and agentic platforms moderate signal

Today: Toqan's AI capability, which the site says is 'now available to you', and Zapia, an AI assistant backed by Prosus

Roles: Director: Product Communications · AI Engineer – 0 to 1 Products · Program Manager – Ecosystem Strategy & Operations

Requirements mention: agentic platforms · enterprise engines · consumer AI assistants · product launches · launch calendar · working prototypes · agentic AI

Inference: the Director: Product Communications posting asks for product launches and a launch calendar across agentic platforms, enterprise engines and consumer AI assistants. This suggests Prosus plans to launch AI products in these categories under its own name.

In-house LLM training and serving strong signal

Today: AI used across its lifestyle e-commerce brands (ecommerce, food delivery, fintech, experiences)

Roles: Senior Machine Learning Engineer – LLMs · ML Engineering Intern - LLM Research & Development

Requirements mention: language models · DeepSpeed · RLHF · DPO · production serving infrastructure

Inference: both AI & ML roles ask for training and fine-tuning of language models and for serving them in production. The next step may be more domain-specific models trained on proprietary data and deployed to users across the portfolio companies.

Decision systems combining LLMs and causal inference weak signal

Today: Promotions and incentives across its lifestyle e-commerce brands

Roles: (MSc/PhD) AI Research Intern - LLMs, Causal Inference & Decision Making

Requirements mention: causal inference · randomized controlled trials · uplift modeling

No inference drawn beyond the posting, which describes decision systems for how promotions and incentives are allocated.

Repositioning Prosus as one global technology company, through flagship events weak signal

Today: Prosus is the power behind the world's leading lifestyle e-commerce brands.

Roles: Director of Brand Experience

Requirements mention: brand experience · experiential marketing · global events · storytelling

No inference drawn beyond the posting. It says Prosus is repositioning itself as one global technology company and that this role owns flagship events and external event presence.

Security across portfolio platforms weak signal

Today: Platforms of its lifestyle e-commerce businesses

Roles: Cyber Security Manager

Requirements mention: AI security · red teaming · penetration testing

No inference drawn beyond the posting, which describes security risk analysis across complex platforms and systems of multiple businesses.
