About North:

North is Cohere's cutting-edge AI workspace platform, designed to revolutionize the way enterprises utilize AI. It offers a secure and customizable environment, allowing companies to deploy AI while maintaining control over sensitive data. North integrates seamlessly with existing workflows, providing a trusted platform that connects AI agents with workplace tools and applications.

Why this role:

The Data Abstractions & Tools team is the group inside North responsible for how users bring their data into the platform and put it to work. We own the systems that let users upload, organize, and share their files and knowledge bases, the framework for extending agents with skills and third-party integrations, and the data-sync pipeline that connects enterprise data sources to North's agents.

North connects to a growing set of external tools and data sources so its agents can act on a user's real workflow. This role owns the integration pipeline end-to-end: adding new integrations to the platform, helping other engineers do the same, and becoming the owner of the process that makes that repeatable. You will also create the evals and tests that make sure those integrations work as expected and keep working as the platform evolves.

In this role, you will:

• Build new integrations (tools) on the North agentic platform, and maintain the ones already in production.
• Own the integration pipeline: the process for adding a new tool, from design to shipping to ongoing maintenance.
• Help other engineers add integrations of their own, and raise the bar for how the team does it.
• Create evals and tests to make sure integrations work as expected and alert on regressions.
• Tune tool descriptions to improve performance based on feedback and evals.
• Use AI actively in your work, while staying accountable for the quality and reliability of what you ship.

You may be a good fit if:

• You have shipped production code and are comfortable building integrations against external APIs.
• You have a background in evaluating agentic systems (ideal), or at minimum know what an eval is and are comfortable with prompt engineering and tool-description tuning.
• You excel in fast-paced environments and can execute while priorities are a moving target.
• You bring high agency: you learn quickly and drive change without waiting for perfect instructions.
• You've owned things end-to-end before and care about the quality of what ships, not just that it shipped.
• You enjoy helping other engineers succeed, not just shipping your own work.
