Technical Support Specialist

Who are we?

Our mission is to scale intelligence to serve humanity. We’re training and deploying frontier models for developers and enterprises who are building AI systems to power magical experiences like content generation, semantic search, RAG, and agents. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI.

We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers. We like to work hard and move fast to do what’s best for our customers.

Cohere is a team of researchers, engineers, designers, and more, who are passionate about their craft. Each person is one of the best in the world at what they do. We believe that a diverse range of perspectives is a requirement for building great products.

Join us on our mission and shape the future!

Why this role? 

As a Technical Support Specialist you will be part of our fast growing Customer Support team. Due to the role's technical customer focus, the insights you will gather will be essential to our organization, as they will improve processes and enhance our products. In this role, you’ll be engaging with customers through support tickets, you’ll troubleshoot technical issues and establish clarity where there is ambiguity. You’ll be a great match if you are keeping up with the AI industry, a true team player, and are excited about diving deep into technical issues and problem solving. 

As a Technical Support Specialist, you will:

- Provide top-tier support to our users and our customers by responding to tickets, through a variety of channels (i.e Email, Chat, Slack, Discord).

- Be the go-to for our customers and users by investigating and solving complex (and interesting!) technical issues.

- Provide insights and timely support to our customers and users who are integrating our products into their products by deploying via our API, through a partner cloud, or on-prem.

- Solve recurring issues and enable users to better deploy our models.

- Help maintain our internal support documentation resources.

- Collaborate closely with our Sales, Product, and Engineering teams to:

- Provide feedback and identify areas where we can improve our product and services, based on your valuable customer interactions.

- Collaborate and problem solve with the other teams when more complex technical cases arise. 

You may be a good fit if you have: 

- 5+ years of experience working in a customer facing support team or a technical support team (bonus if it was at a growing SAAS or PAAS organization with Enterprise level/F100 customers)

- You have a background in Data and/or a good technical understanding of AI (this could mean a continuing education certificate, courses, previous work experience etc).

- Previous experience supporting Infra with cloud-based products and API-based products, while using Python, Intercom, and Linear is a bonus. 

- Crisp communication skills: you listen well (you put yourself in the users’ shoes), you can articulate technical terms to non-technical audiences and you can clearly summarize and write responses (including technical writing).

If some of the above doesn’t line up perfectly with your experience, we still encourage you to apply! If you consider yourself a thoughtful worker, a lifelong learner, and a kind and playful team member, Cohere is the place for you.

We value and celebrate diversity and strive to create an inclusive work environment for all. We welcome applicants of all kinds and are committed to providing an equal opportunity process. Cohere provides accessibility accommodations during the recruitment process. Should you require any accommodation, please let us know and we will work with you to meet your needs.
