Senior HR Manager

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 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.

Coram AI is transforming the future of video security. We're building a next-generation platform that helps businesses and institutions get more value from their video footage—faster, smarter, and with less effort. Using cutting-edge AI, real-time alerts, and intuitive interfaces, we empower security teams to respond quickly, investigate efficiently, and make better-informed decisions.

Whether it's for critical infrastructure, retail environments, or public spaces, Coram is redefining what video security can do. We're a fast-growing startup backed by leading investors, and we're on a mission to bring intelligence and usability to the heart of surveillance systems.

We are a VC-backed startup totaling $65 million in funding to date. We're already generating revenue and with plenty of runway, we're looking to scale the business.

We're looking for an experienced, hands-on Senior HR Manager to own and scale our HR operations as Coram continues to grow across the U.S., UK, and India.
