We’re building the next generation of agentic AI infrastructure at Cohere
This team sits at the intersection of ML systems, distributed infrastructure, and developer experience, creating the platform that powers autonomous AI agents at scale
You’ll work on hard, forward-looking problems with few established patterns, including secure code execution, agent state management, model routing, identity and authentication, and resource management for long-running agent workflows
This role is a strong fit for someone who combines systems depth with ML intuition
You should be comfortable building reliable infrastructure, thinking through distributed systems tradeoffs, and understanding how emerging agentic capabilities shape platform design
Secure execution environments for agent-generated code
Identity, authentication, and trust boundaries for agents
Model routing and orchestration across different model types and environments
Rate limiting, quotas, and resource management for agent workflows
State management, memory, and filesystem abstractions for agents
Turn emerging ML research ideas into production-ready infrastructure
Build core platform capabilities for execution, storage, and state management
Prototype and evaluate new technologies, then help decide what should move into production
Partner with research teams to shape infrastructure based on what future agent systems will need
