Responsibilities
  • Build and ship features for North, our AI workspace platform
  • Develop autonomous agents that talk to sensitive enterprise data
  • Write and ship minimal code that runs in low-resource environments, and has highly stringent deployment mechanisms
  • As security and privacy are paramount, you will sometimes need to re-invent the wheel, and won’t be able to use the most popular libraries or tooling
  • Collaborate with researchers to productionize state-of-the-art models and techniques
Desired Qualifications
  • Have shipped (lots of) fullstack code (Python and React) in production
  • You excel in fast-paced environments and can execute while priorities and objectives are a moving target
  • You have strong coding abilities and are comfortable working across the stack.
  • You have built and deployed extremely performant client-side or server-side RAG/agentic applications to millions of users.
  • You think like a product owner, not just an engineer — you ask should we build this before how do we build this
  • You have strong opinions on what makes a great user experience and aren't afraid to push back on designs or specs that don't serve the user
  • You've owned features end-to-end: from understanding the user problem, to shipping, to measuring impact
  • Bonus: You love art and have an eye for design and a creative mindset - A plus, if you have a portfolio, GitHub or other showcases of your projects

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Cohere reached $240M ARR in 2025, exceeding its $200M target with over 50% quarter-over-quarter growth.
  • Cohere's Tiny Aya model enables high-performance multilingual AI for 70+ languages on standard consumer hardware offline.
  • Cohere's Rerank 4 expands enterprise search context windows to 32k across 100+ languages, enhancing RAG capabilities.

What critics are saying

  • OpenAI and Anthropic's exclusive Azure/AWS tethering drives 50–70% enterprise churn to bundled solutions within 12–18 months.
  • Aleph Alpha's acquisition creates $20B valuation overhang, risking 6+ months EU rollout delays and blocking $150M+ contracts.
  • Command A+'s open-source Apache 2.0 release enables free competitors, driving price erosion to $0.02/token by 2027.

What makes Cohere unique

  • Cohere is cloud-agnostic, operating on Nvidia, AMD, Groq, and Cerebras for full hardware independence.
  • Cohere achieved FedRAMP High authorization in under 90 days, the first independent LLM company at this level.
  • Cohere offers sovereign AI running entirely within national borders, ensuring data never leaves an organization's perimeter.

Ensemble and Cohere build first RCM-native LLM for healthcare revenue cycle management

Ensemble, a US revenue cycle management services provider, has partnered with enterprise AI company Cohere to build the healthcare industry's first revenue cycle management-native large language model. The companies are creating a custom model informed by Ensemble's operational expertise and data, designed to handle complex healthcare financial operations more accurately than general-purpose LLMs. The model will be embedded into AI agents managing processes from patient intake to account resolution. Unlike standard approaches that rely on prompt engineering, this system is fine-tuned on real RCM tasks and trained using synthetic datasets in a HIPAA-compliant environment, without using identifiable patient data. The solution aims to enhance existing electronic health record systems by providing better context and guidance for navigating payer requirements whilst reducing administrative burden for healthcare providers.

Cohere launches Tiny Aya, open multilingual AI models supporting 70+ languages on laptops

Cohere has launched Tiny Aya, a family of open-weight multilingual AI models supporting over 70 languages that can run on everyday devices without internet connectivity. The models were unveiled at the India AI Summit by the company's research arm, Cohere Labs. The base model contains 3.35 billion parameters and includes regional variants: TinyAya-Global for broad language support, TinyAya-Earth for African languages, TinyAya-Fire for South Asian languages, and TinyAya-Water for Asia Pacific, West Asia and Europe. South Asian language support includes Bengali, Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil and Telugu. Trained on 64 Nvidia H100 GPUs using modest computing resources, the models enable offline applications like translation, particularly useful in linguistically diverse countries like India. The models are available on HuggingFace, Kaggle and the Cohere Platform.

SAP and Cohere launch sovereign AI solutions in Canada for public sector and regulated industries

SAP and Cohere are expanding their partnership to deliver sovereign AI solutions globally, beginning in Canada. SAP Canada plans to integrate Cohere's agentic platform, North, into its Enterprise Resource Planning Sovereign Cloud environment, creating a complete Sovereign AI Layer for public sector and regulated industries. The integration embeds Cohere's large language models into SAP's Canadian-operated sovereign cloud infrastructure, allowing organisations to deploy advanced AI whilst maintaining data residency and operational control. This addresses the challenge of innovating with AI without compromising security or data sovereignty. A recent SAP AI report found that whilst 71% of organisations rely on data for investment decisions, 75% report incomplete data as a significant challenge. The partnership aims to overcome data fragmentation by embedding AI directly into core SAP applications.
