117 open jobsGeneral information
Cohere is an AI software company based in Toronto, Canada. It builds enterprise language models and AI platforms, including products like Command, North, Compass, Embed, Rerank, and the multimodal Aya Vision models.
Aidan Gomez, Ivan Zhang, and Nick Frosst founded Cohere in Toronto in 2019. It is a private company with 450+ employees as of 2025. In April 2026, Cohere agreed to merge with Aleph Alpha, giving the combined company a valuation of about $20 billion. That matters: the merger pairs Cohere's language models with Aleph Alpha's technology, giving it more scale to compete with much larger AI labs. Historically, the median salary is ~$188,750. Cohere is an H-1B sponsor.1

- 2. Weekly counts. A count is the number of listings the pipeline saw for the first time in that week. Weeks begin Monday; the onboarding week is excluded from the scale and every average.
- 3. Live counts. Deduplicated live listings observed daily on Cohere's own hiring system; last check October 27, 2026. Stale and syndicated posts on aggregator sites are not counted.
- 4. Posted pay. Ranges extracted from the text of Cohere's own listings; a range appears only when the employer printed one. Extraction is still rolling out, so this table can lag the board.
