Who are we?

Our 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.

We 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.

Join us on our mission and shape the future!

Why this role

Cohere is deepening its partnerships with Oracle and Dell—two high-impact partners that shape how enterprises build, deploy, and scale AI. These partners sit at the intersection of cloud platforms, infrastructure, and enterprise applications, making them critical distribution and influence channels for Cohere. We need a dedicated partner marketer to turn these partnerships into repeatable, high-performing GTM engines that drive adoption, revenue, and market credibility.

• Build strong working relationships with partner marketing, partnerships, product, and industry teams across both organizations.

Content, Messaging & Launch Readiness

• Lead content for co-engineered solutions, partner platform integrations, and AI factory/on-prem deployments.

• Develop partner-ready messaging kits, solution briefs, decks, demo narratives, and customer-facing content.

Cross-Functional & Sales Alignment

• Partner with Product Marketing to support partner launches tied to new models, updates, and capabilities.

• Collaborate with Partnerships, Sales, and SAs on co-sell motions, pipeline generation, and strategic customer engagements.

You may be a good fit if you have

• 5–8+ years in partner marketing, product marketing, or ecosystem marketing in AI, SaaS, cloud, infrastructure, or enterprise tech.

• Experience working with cloud platform and/or infrastructure OEM partners (Oracle, Dell, VMware, HPE, AWS, etc.).

• Ability to translate technical concepts—AI stacks, model performance, on-prem deployments, and enterprise application integrations—into compelling narratives.

• Strong GTM fundamentals: content creation, co-sell motions, partner enablement, event strategy, and demand-gen.

• Experience managing high-stakes partners and navigating complex approval processes.

• Excellent communication skills and a collaborative approach with cross-functional teams.

• A builder mentality—you thrive in fast-paced environments and enjoy creating scalable playbooks, processes, and partner assets.
