Full Job Description
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! WHY THIS ROLE? North is Cohere's cutting-edge AI workspace platform, designed to revolutionize the way enterprises utilize AI. It offers a secure and customizable environment, allowing 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. The Agents & Automations team builds the platform inside North that lets customers create AI-powered workflows. Some of these workflows are structured automations, such as routing requests, keeping systems up-to-date, or triggering approvals. Others are more flexible agents that can gather context, use tools, make decisions, and take action across enterprise systems. As an engineer on this team, you will help build the core platform that makes this possible: the workflow builder, execution engine, integrations, debugging tools, observability, evaluation systems, and feedback loops that help customers understand and improve what they deploy. This is broad product engineering work across frontend, backend, and AI-powered systems.
