About Cohere
Cohere builds foundation models and enterprise AI products and is headquartered in Toronto. Its Data Quality (Contract) team hires Data Annotation Specialists as part-time independent contractors, remote within Canada only, on 12-month contracts of at least 16 hours a week: an engineering specialist (civil, mechanical, electrical or chemical) who breaks engineering tasks into steps the model learns from, a data science specialist who reviews and debugs code and model trajectories, and a generalist who labels, ranks, audits and corrects model output across consumer-facing domains. Pay is stated in Canadian dollars: CAD 30 an hour for the engineering and generalist roles and CAD 40 for data science. Only these roles are listed here, never Cohere's staff jobs.
