There's so much we can tell you about this role and why we're excited about it, but to keep it brief, here are the top things you need to know. We're excited to receive your application and talk to you soon!
TL:DR: We're hiring an HR Business Partner to work with our Tech organization, supporting through an extraordinary phase of growth.
A role that matters. HRBPs are central to our People model - trusted by leaders, brought into important organizational challenges, and expected to have a point of view.
A front-row seat to AI. Work alongside exceptional researchers, engineers, and leaders at the forefront of AI - some of the most talented and in-demand people in the industry.
A chance to build. We're building the foundations of our People function at scale, with plenty of white space and latitude to shape how we work rather than inherit established playbooks.
Real ownership, with a built-in partner. You'll own relationships and priorities while working in an HRBP pod - giving you someone to bounce ideas off, share the load when needed, and provide seamless cover when you're away.
An exciting moment to join. We're scaling incredibly quickly, with strong pull from the business for People partnership and no shortage of high-impact problems to solve.
Our titles are deliberately flat. We're looking for an experienced HRBP who can operate independently, exercise sound judgment, and thrive in a highly collaborative team.

Organizational design: Help teams and structures evolve as we scale
Leadership: Coach managers and strengthen leadership capability
Talent: Drive performance, talent, and succession
Organizational health: Support engagement, retention, and team effectiveness
People strategy: Shape priorities and build new ways of working as we scale
Has strong HRBP experience: 5+ years as an HRBP or People Partner
Knows technical organizations: Has partnered with Engineering, Research, or similarly technical teams
Has scaled: Has worked in a startup, scale-up, or other high-growth environment
Thinks globally: Has supported distributed teams and leaders
Writes exceptionally well: Clear, concise written communication is core to how we operate and influence

6 weeks of paid vacation (30 working days!)
Budget for traveling to other offices if you are remote, plus an annual company offsite.
Cohere is remote-friendly, but we also have offices in Toronto, London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin and Seoul with more opening soon.
For those in the office: a daily lunch program, plenty of snacks, and regular community and social events.

Everyone receives a $500 home office stipend to set up your workspace properly.
