We're seeking a Technical Program Manager to own release coordination across North's growing product portfolio. This role sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and customer delivery, ensuring that North ships reliably, communicates clearly, and continuously improves how it gets software out the door.
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.
Own end-to-end release coordination for North, including managing release trains, defining cadences, and ensuring smooth execution across engineering and product teams
Drive cherry pick and hotfix approval workflows, triaging urgency, aligning stakeholders, and shepherding changes through to deployment with appropriate guardrails
Author and manage customer-facing release communications, translating technical changes into clear, accurate updates for enterprise customers and internal stakeholders
Establish and scale release processes that allow North's teams to ship faster and with greater confidence as our platform grows
Map cross-team dependencies and risks across the release pipeline, surfacing blockers early and coordinating resolution across engineering, product, and customer success
Partner directly with North Leadership and Members of Technical Staff on efforts to improve release quality, velocity, and operational rigor
Manage project tracking tools (Linear, GitHub workflows) and facilitate release planning sessions across cross-functional teams
Respond quickly to program-level changes: clarifying scope, adjusting timelines, and marshaling the right resources when customer or market priorities shift.
Have 3+ years as a Technical or Engineering Program Manager, with demonstrated experience in startup or high-growth environments
Have owned or significantly contributed to software release processes, including versioning strategies, hotfix workflows, or staged rollout coordination
Have experience with AI/ML products or technical platforms
Are comfortable with low structure, high impact situations where you can build processes from scratch and operate at both tactical and strategic levels
Communicate with precision. Able to interact with Technical Writing on customer-facing release notes and executive summaries as fluently as you track a GitHub PR
Have strong bias for action and can move quickly from problem identification to solution implementation
Have experience with project management and release tooling (Linear, Jira, GitHub, etc.)
Love to automate your work, and can use North to do so!
