Content Editor

Cohere • San Francisco, CA

2d • $150,000 - $200,000 • Remote

About The Position

The Content Editor is Cohere’s senior hands-on editorial contributor, writing and editing high-stakes content across thought leadership, developer content, customer stories, and product marketing. The role works closely with the Staff Writer by editing and mentoring their work, and with the Managing Editor to execute the shared editorial calendar. It also takes on assignments requiring especially strong craft, technical fluency, or narrative judgment.

The editor turns source material—including subject-matter expert interviews, product specifications, customer conversations, and executive talking points—into polished, publishable stories. The role partners with the Content Strategist to develop strategic briefs into well-scoped pieces with SEO/AEO value, maintains the style guide in practice, coordinates technical and legal accuracy reviews, and oversees content production from draft through publication.

Cohere is a remote-friendly global technology company headquartered in Toronto, with offices in Toronto, London, New York City, San Francisco, Montreal, Paris, Berlin, and Seoul. The position may be performed remotely or from an office.
