  • Take initiative, introducing talent projects in an effort to optimize efficiencies and take ownership of these projects.

  • Creative problem solving skills & thrive under pressure.

  • Strong ability to excel in rapidly evolving ambiguous environments.

  • You are a natural entrepreneur, an influencer, and enjoy working cross-functionally.

If some of the above doesn’t line up perfectly with your experience, we still encourage you to apply!

  • 1.You are trying to close a senior ML Engineer who has a competing offer from a well-established tech giant with a higher base salary. How do you approach the negotiation to win them for Cohere?
