The role

Cohere is hiring a software engineer with a security focus for its North team, which builds the company's AI workspace platform. The role is hands-on: you would own and ship security features such as OIDC/OAuth flows and session management. Cohere is remote-friendly.

What you will do

  • Write secure code that handles OIDC tokens, user claims and sensitive data
  • Implement login, token management and authorization checks
  • Bring in new tools to strengthen North's security capabilities
  • Design secret management in Kubernetes clusters, including encryption and RBAC
  • Explain security practices clearly to stakeholders

What they ask for

  • 5+ years building user-facing security features in production systems
  • Frequent production Python
  • Deep understanding of OIDC/OAuth 2.0, JWT validation and token lifecycle
  • Hands-on Kubernetes experience in development and production
  • Experience across GCP, AWS, Azure or multi-cloud deployments
  • Comfort working across the stack
  • Ability to explain security to non-security engineers

What they offer

  • Weekly lunch stipend
  • Health and dental coverage with a mental health budget
  • RRSP matching, 401K or pension
  • Parental leave top-up for up to 6 months
  • 6 weeks paid vacation
  • $500 home office stipend and co-working benefit
