Careers at Cocoon

Teach it. Advise on it. Build it.

That is the whole job here. We help people and organisations across South and Southeast Asia get genuinely good at AI — then we stay long enough to make it work in practice. It is useful work, and there is a lot of it.

Now hiring · three live roles

Nothing here that fits? The open application at the bottom of this page goes to the same inbox — we have made roles for people before.

What it's actually like

Small team, wide surface

Nobody here has a narrow lane. People write, teach, build and sell in the same week — which means you learn quickly and your work is visible straight away.

We build in public

Everything on our tools page was made in-house and left switched on for free. Client work stays private, but the habit is the same: ship something real, quickly.

You will do all three

Train one week, advise the next, ship something the week after. Explaining a hard thing simply matters more here than any credential — and so does finishing what you started.

Based in Sri Lanka, working regionally

Colombo is home. Sessions run across Sri Lanka, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia and the Middle East, in person and online.

Where we usually need people

These are the shapes of role we hire for. Pick the closest — if none of them fit but you think you belong here, choose Something else and make the case.

🎓

Trainers & facilitators

Run workshops and courses — corporate rooms, universities, schools. Turn a topic into ninety minutes people remember.

We look for: real teaching or facilitation experience, and hands-on AI use.
Trainers have their own form →
📈

Growth & marketing

Content, campaigns, partnerships, events. Get the right rooms to know we exist, and fill them.

We look for: writing you're proud of, and comfort with numbers.
🧭

AI consultants

Sit with a client, work out where AI genuinely helps and where it is a distraction, and write the plan they can act on.

We look for: judgement, and the nerve to say "don't do this".
🚀

Delivery & implementation

Execution: take the agreed plan and actually build, integrate and run it inside a client's business until it works.

We look for: shipping history, and comfort inside someone else's systems.
⚙️

Engineering

Build our own products — the tools on this site, the AI features behind them, the infrastructure that keeps them up. Ship small, ship often.

We look for: things you've actually built and can show us.
🎨

Design

Interfaces, slides, brand, learning materials. Make complicated things feel obvious.

We look for: a portfolio, and opinions you can defend.
✍️

Content & curriculum

Write the courses, the blog, the exercises. Decide what's worth teaching and in what order.

We look for: clear writing, and a habit of explaining.
🗂️

Operations & partnerships

Make sessions happen — scheduling, clients, logistics, the hundred details between a yes and a full room.

We look for: organisation, and calm under a moving schedule.

How hiring works here

You apply

The form below. A person reads it — there is no filter bot between you and us.

We reply either way

Within about two weeks. A no is still an answer, and you'll get one.

A conversation

Half an hour, mostly about what you've done and what you want to be doing.

Something real

A short paid piece of work or a live teaching slot, depending on the role. We'd rather see you work than quiz you.

Apply

A link, not a file — we don't accept uploads. Put your CV on Drive or Dropbox and make sure the link is viewable.

We store what you send so we can consider your application and get back to you. We don't sell it or pass it on, and you can ask us to delete it at any time by replying to our email.

That's with us.

A confirmation is on its way to your inbox. A person will read your application and reply either way, usually within a couple of weeks.
