\nWho are we?\nOur 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.\n\n\nWe 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.\n\n\nCohere 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.\n\n\nJoin us on our mission and shape the future!\n\n\nThe Role\nMicrosoft is a pioneer in the AI space and is one of our most important partners. You will be the buck-stops-here leader for all matters related to our relationship with Microsoft, including but not limited to, architecting the partnership strategy, technical integration, marketing campaigns, sales plays, enablement, pipeline generation and management, agreements, and business outcomes. You will work closely with Cohere’s partner solution architects and partner marketing teams as well as our Legal, Finance, Product, Sales, and Engineering teams to deliver on our joint goals with Microsoft.\n\n\nPlease note: To qualify for this role, you MUST have a deep understanding of how Microsoft Azure manages its partnerships and a proven track record of scaling ISV partnerships with Azure. \n\n\nIn addition to deep experience with Azure, our ideal candidate is someone who thrives in a relatively unstructured and rapidly evolving environment. Your opportunity for impact will be astronomical — Cohere has sky-high potential, and you’ll help us reach it. You will join a highly motivated team that is defining what the AI ecosystem will be, and we’re looking for someone who gets excited about that. \n\n\nKey Responsibilities\n- Foster and nurture the alliance with Microsoft, ensuring alignment with strategic objectives and mutual value creation.\n- Develop and execute a comprehensive alliance strategy and business plan. Identify key growth areas, market opportunities, and co-innovation initiatives. Drive initiatives to expand and deepen the collaboration for mutual growth.\n- Demonstrate a deep understanding of the Azure organizational structure, decision drivers and influencers, partnership frameworks, programs, and collaboration models. Leverage this knowledge to enhance our joint initiatives.\n- Bring prior experience in scaling partnerships, specifically with Azure. Track record in a start-up environment is preferred, but not necessary. \n- Take a hands-on approach to drive the execution of alliance activities by striking a balance between ownership and delegation. Work closely with cross-functional teams to ensure successful implementation of joint projects. \n- Establish key performance indicators (KPIs) and regularly report on the success and impact of the alliance. Use data-driven insights to refine strategies and optimize outcomes.\n- Build relationships and collaborate extensively with all relevant stakeholders at Cohere, Microsoft, other partners in the ecosystem.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIf 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.\n\n\nWe value and celebrate diversity and strive to create an inclusive work environment for all.
