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 an ambitious, 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: We're hiring our first Brand & Design Lead to own how Coram looks, sounds, and feels everywhere it shows up. Right now that work is spread across the team and outside agencies. We want one person with genuine taste to own it end to end and raise the bar on all of it. This is a leadership priority, not a logo cleanup. You'll report to the VP of Marketing and work directly with our CEO and product team on how Coram shows up in the world. Brand has a seat, not a service desk. You'll have the mandate to make bold calls and the backing to ship them. We're not hiring you to keep the brand safe. We're hiring you to make it impossible to ignore. Responsibilities: - Brand identity and system. Evolve and steward Coram's visual identity: the CORAM wordmark and aperture symbol, our color and type system, illustration, iconography, and motion. Build the guidelines and the components so the brand stays coherent as more people touch it. - Own the Coram website as the company's front door: design, art direction, and the ongoing craft of the pages that convert. Partner closely with demand gen and SEO on what ships. - Make the product legible and desirable: feature launches, demo assets, explainer visuals, and the sales deck and collateral reps actually use in the field. - Set the visual standard for campaigns, ads, social, email, events, and video. You won't make every asset, but nothing goes out looking off-brand. - Partner with the video team to raise the production and design quality of what we publish. - Hire and lead designers and creatives as we grow. Bring in and manage the right agencies and contractors. Define how design works with marketing, product, and sales. - Have a point of view on what good looks like, defend it, and lift the quality of everything Coram puts into the world. Skills and qualifications: - 8+ years in brand and/or design, including senior creative leadership with full brand ownership, ideally in an early stage (Series A/B) environment - Fluent in Figma and Adobe (Illustrator, After Effects/motion) - A portfolio that demonstrates taste and intentionality - Experience building and leading teams where you've hired designers and managed agencies partnerships - A hands-on leadership style with active involvement in designing vs. solely providing feedback on team contributions. - Resilient in challenging and fast-paced environments - Exceptional written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to influence at all levels What we offer: - 100% Employer-paid medical, dental, vision, and base life insurance - Flexible paid time off and 10 paid holidays - 401(k) with both Traditional and Roth options - Early-stage equity in a rapidly growing company - Referral bonuses - Daily team dinners and regular team off-sites - The latest Apple products and unlimited tech stack (Claude Cowork, Perplexity Computer, Nooks, Clay, Instantly, etc. 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. Founded by Ashesh Jain (ex-Lyft Level 5, PhD Cornell) and Peter Ondruska (ex-Lyft, PhD Oxford), Coram AI is backed by Ansa Capital, Battery Ventures, Mosaic, 8VC and Up Partners, have raised over $65M, and were named to the CB Insights AI 100 as one of the most promising AI companies in the world.

Works with any existing IP camera — no rip-and-replace required. - **Video Security**: AI-powered video monitoring with real-time alerts for weapons, falls, and PPE violations, plus natural language video search and "Deep Investigation" agents that autonomously generate reports across cameras and data. - **Access Control**: Integrates with 99% of existing access control infrastructure; enables tailgating detection, forced door alerts, and remote door control from anywhere. - **Guest Management**: Streamlined visitor check-in with ID-based background checks, pre-approved visitor lists, and real-time visitor movement tracking linked to video events. - **Emergency Management**: Built-in panic buttons, mobile triggers, and alert workflows; integrates with emergency services for coordinated response; compliant with Alyssa’s Law requirements. ## Market Standing - **Latest Funding**: $35 million Series B (announced June 2026), co-led by **Ansa Capital** and **Battery Ventures**, with participation from UP.Partners, 8VC, and Mosaic Ventures. - **Total Funding**: $66 million (Series A of $13.8 million in 2025, plus Series B). - **Revenue Growth**: 4x revenue jump and tripling of customer base since the Series A round. - **Customer Base**: Over 1,500 sites across the U.S. and Canada, including Fortune 500 companies, 1-800-GOT-JUNK?, Hershey’s Ice Cream, World YMCA, Lakepointe Church, large school districts, healthcare providers, manufacturers, and municipalities. - **Team Size**: ~100 employees (as of mid-2026), with +128.8% YoY headcount growth. ## Competitive Advantages - **AI-First Architecture**: Founded by AI researchers from Lyft’s and Zoox’s autonomous driving divisions — Coram applies the same computer vision and AI that helps cars understand the physical world to physical security. - **No Rip-and-Replace**: Works with 99% of existing IP cameras and access control infrastructure, dramatically lowering deployment cost and friction. - **Unified Platform**: Consolidates video, access, visitors, and emergency response into one system — eliminating the need to stitch together separate tools. - **Deep Investigation Agents**: Autonomous AI agents that analyze video, access events, and visitor activity across cameras and time — reducing investigation times from hours/weeks to minutes. - **Strong Traction with Complex Verticals**: Proven in security-sensitive environments like schools, hospitals, manufacturing, churches, and government. ## Strategic Focus - **Sales Expansion**: Aggressively growing sales capacity to meet demand that is outpacing the team. - **AI Product Development**: Continued investment in AI research, including the new "Deep Investigation" autonomous agents. - **Customer Success**: Scaling the customer success organization to support rapid customer base growth. ## Why Work Here - **Cutting-Edge AI Work**: Engineering roles involve applying state-of-the-art computer vision, NLP, and autonomous agent technology to real-world physical security problems. - **High Growth Stage**: Series B, 4x revenue growth, 128% headcount growth YoY — employees join early in a hypergrowth trajectory. - **Open Positions (20 active)**: Roles across engineering (Infrastructure, AI, C++), product management, sales, marketing, growth, and strategic finance. - **Founding Team Pedigree**: Co-founders from Lyft’s autonomous driving division (acquired by Toyota/Woven) and Zoox — strong technical leadership and autonomy/AI expertise. - **Culture**: Described as an "AI-native" culture — the company is built by engineers and researchers who value automation, efficiency, and modern technology. - **Hybrid/Remote**: Based in Sunnyvale, CA; roles may offer hybrid or remote flexibility depending on position. - **Key Perks**: Opportunity to shape the physical security industry with AI, work on mission-critical safety technology used by schools and hospitals, and contribute to a platform that helps prevent incidents rather than just documenting them. ## Sources 1.
