Applied AI Engineer, Agents & Automations
Builds production-ready AI agent experiences, workflow interfaces, evaluation systems, and feedback loops for Cohere’s North enterprise AI platform. The role requires strong software engineering, product judgment, and experience shipping and improving LLM- or agent-powered products.
About the job
Responsibilities
- Build AI-powered product experiences that help users create, configure, evaluate, and improve workflows across North.
- Design and ship interfaces for interacting with models, including workflow builders, proactive assistants, review flows, and human-AI collaboration patterns.
- Build evaluation, observability, and feedback systems that measure success in real enterprise workflows.
- Improve AI reliability through product design, prompting, context construction, tool-use strategies, instrumentation, and feedback loops.
- Turn production failures, user feedback, and real-task data into improved product behavior, evaluation suites, regression tests, and modeling signals.
- Collaborate with modeling, product, design, customer teams, and domain experts to define success for specific workflows and ship measurable improvements.
- Determine whether a workflow needs a more constrained product experience, improved model interface, stronger evaluation, or deeper modeling investment.
Requirements
- Experience shipping LLM-powered, agent-powered, or AI-assisted product experiences into production and improving them based on real-world feedback.
- Strong software engineering skills across backend systems, user-facing products, data, evaluations, and model behavior.
- Ability to focus on user outcomes and system behavior, not only model metrics.
- Strong product judgment and care for how interfaces, workflows, and models work together.
- Ability to debug messy real-world failures and turn findings from production, user testing, and evaluations into durable improvements.
- Ability to own ambiguous problems end-to-end and work across system boundaries.
