About The Position

At Coram AI, we’re reimagining video security for the modern world. Our cloud-native platform uses computer vision and AI to help businesses stay safe, make smarter decisions, and move faster; from real-time alerts to seamless clip sharing and multi-site visibility.
You’ll be joining a small, fast-moving team that values clarity, craftsmanship, and impact. Every person here has a voice, ships meaningful work, and helps shape how AI can make the world safer and more connected.
The role:

As our Founding Customer Experience Engineer, you’ll own the front line of customer support, triaging and resolving issues via Intercom and email. You’ll debug across devices, networking, and backend systems, escalating to engineering with clear, high-quality context when needed.
Early success means running the engine well: meeting SLA targets, managing multiple active threads, and ensuring nothing falls through the cracks.
Beyond ticket resolution, you’ll help improve and automate how support operates by contributing to documentation, workflows, and AI-driven tooling. Over time, this role can grow from operating the system to helping redesign, scale, and eventually lead it.
We're on a mission to transform a $50B+ legacy industry by bringing the power of cutting-edge multimodal LLMs and computer vision to real-world security and operations. From firearm detection to intelligent access control, our AI-native platform turns every camera and sensor into a smart system that enhances safety, efficiency, and awareness.
