Who are we?

Cohere is the leading security-first enterprise AI company. We build cutting-edge foundation AI models and end-to-end products that are designed to solve real-world business problems.

We’re training and deploying frontier models for enterprises who are building AI systems. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI and we are looking for folks that want to be part of that.

We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers. Cohere is a team of researchers, engineers, designers, and more, who are all passionate about their craft.

We are a global technology company co-headquartered in Toronto and San Francisco, with key offices in London, New York City, Montreal, Seoul, Germany and Paris. Join us!

ABOUT NORTH:

North is Cohere's cutting-edge AI workspace platform, designed to revolutionise how enterprises use AI. It offers a secure, customisable environment that enables companies to deploy AI while maintaining control over sensitive data. North integrates seamlessly with existing workflows, providing a trusted platform that connects AI agents with workplace tools and applications.

IN THIS ROLE, YOU WILL:

• Lead and manage a team of engineers, fostering a collaborative and high-performing environment.

• Design, build, ship and maintain scalable features for North, our AI workspace platform.

• Take end-to-end ownership of features — from initial design and planning, through implementation, testing, and delivery.

• Apply your expertise to deliver at speed, making practical technical decisions that balance velocity with depth and quality.

• Collaborate closely across teams, maintaining high standards for communication, documentation, and testing.

• Contribute across the stack—from front-end UI to back-end infrastructure—to develop new features, fix bugs, and optimise performance.

YOU MAY BE A GOOD FIT IF YOU:

• Have experience managing engineering teams and a proven track record of delivering high-quality software.

• Have built, shipped & maintained production-ready applications.

• Have strong coding abilities and are comfortable working across the stack.

• Take a customer-focused, product-minded approach to building software, prioritising outcomes and impact.

• Thrive in fast-paced environments and can stay focused as priorities and objectives evolve.

OUR TECH STACK:

Our stack includes Python, TypeScript with React, Postgres, and is deployed on Kubernetes. We value strong fundamentals and a learning mindset over specific tech experience — if you’re excited about AI and love building fast, you’ll fit right in!

If some of the above doesn’t line up perfectly with your experience, we still encourage you to apply!

We value and celebrate diversity and strive to create an inclusive work environment for all. We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and are committed to providing equal opportunities.

We may use AI-enabled tools to screen and assess applicants against the criteria for this position. This helps our recruiters identify potentially qualified candidates, but it doesn't limit the applications our recruiters may review or consider.
