Description
Who are we?
Our mission is to scale intelligence to serve humanity. We’re training and deploying frontier models for developers and enterprises who are building AI systems to power magical experiences like content generation, semantic search, RAG, and agents. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI.

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. We like to work hard and move fast to do what’s best for our customers.

Cohere is a team of researchers, engineers, designers, and more, who are passionate about their craft. Each person is one of the best in the world at what they do. We believe that a diverse range of perspectives is a requirement for building great products.

Join us on our mission and shape the future!

Why this Role?
The Endpoints team owns and builds public APIs that allow developers to integrate with Cohere. They support API reference docs and SDKs that help developers have a great time using our APIs.

We embrace a remote-friendly environment, and as part of this approach, we strategically distribute teams based on interests, expertise, and time zones to promote collaboration and flexibility. You'll find the Endpoints team concentrated in the EST and BST time zones.

  • Ship delightful experiences for our user-facing products, meticulously crafting code for browsers and occasionally server code
  • Own and build robust services-oriented web experiences, our backend stack includes: Golang 
  • Build internal tooling (CI/CD, dev utilities) to move faster together

You may be a good fit if:

  • You’ve shipped fast and snappy backend services or web apps loved by many users
  • You care about bringing value to our users - It’s not just about chasing the latest tech stack. You understand the balance between craft and speed
