Argos Multilingual

Language services: translation, localization, multimedia and multilingual AI/LLM data. Founded 1996, 400+ staff, 1B+ words a year. Three routes in: in-house staff, freelance linguists, data community.

Argos Multilingual is a language services provider offering translation, localization, content creation, multimedia services, and multilingual AI and LLM data solutions. It works across life sciences, medical and healthcare, technical and manufacturing, technology, financial services, HR and corporate communications, and retail and eCommerce, and reports more than 400 professionals, over 36 locations, and more than a billion words processed each year. The company was founded in 1996 in Krakow by Kimon Fountoukidis, at the time a translator working in Poland and now the company's Chairman, starting as a small translation vendor serving local businesses. It took angel financing from a Krakow investor in 2000, repositioned in 2002 from a Polish single-language vendor into a regional multi-language vendor specialising in Eastern European languages, opened its first American office in Chicago in 2007, and acquired the San Francisco-based localization firm Venga Global in 2021. Alexander Ulichnowski, previously Chief Operating Officer, was appointed Chief Executive Officer effective 13 December 2023, succeeding Veronique Ozkaya who had led the company from 2020. Its offices include Krakow, two in Dublin, San Francisco, Eindhoven, London, and Kanagawa in Japan, alongside production offices in Buenos Aires, Cordoba, and Rosario in Argentina. Note that the company's main site describes it as headquartered in Dublin while its careers site lists Krakow as headquarters; both are company-published, and Krakow remains its origin and a principal operational base. Argos lists remote work flexibility among its benefits.

Frequently asked questions

What does Argos Multilingual do?

It is a language services provider handling translation, localization, content creation, multimedia, and multilingual AI and LLM data solutions across life sciences, manufacturing, technology, finance, HR, and retail. It reports 400+ professionals and more than a billion words processed a year.

How do freelance translators apply?

Not through the standard careers page. Freelance translators and language service suppliers use a separate supplier application platform, while in-house staff roles go through the BambooHR careers portal. There is also a third route, a flexible data community for project-based work.

What is the Argos data community?

A flexible, project-based pool joined through its own portal, attached to the company's multilingual AI and LLM data solutions. It is the closest thing Argos offers to AI-training style project work, as distinct from traditional translation assignments.

Is remote work available?

Argos lists remote work flexibility among its benefits, and freelance and data-community work is inherently remote. In-house roles are spread across offices in Krakow, Dublin, San Francisco, Eindhoven, London, Kanagawa, and production sites in Argentina, so check each posting.

Who runs Argos Multilingual?

Alexander Ulichnowski has been CEO since 13 December 2023, having previously been COO, succeeding Veronique Ozkaya who led the company from 2020. Founder Kimon Fountoukidis, who started the company in Krakow in 1996, is now Chairman.

What does Argos pay?

Rates are not published for any track. In-house salaries vary by country. Freelance and data-community work is priced per word or per project and depends on your language pair, specialism, and volume, so agree rates directly before starting.
