About Overview.ai Automation is a defining priority for manufacturers today. Automating quality inspection is one of the highest-impact ways this is happeningit directly affects yield, scrap rates, throughput, and whether production survives. Vision systems have been around for decades, but traditional competitors don't do true AI well. Their systems are rigid, require extensive programming, and struggle with the complexity of modern manufacturing. That's changing now. Overview's edge-enabled AI vision devices handle assembly verification, defect detection, and orientation checks with accuracy that wasn't possible before. They integrate into existing lines at production speed. Customers see results on day one: higher yield, lower scrap, fewer escapes, faster throughput. But this technology is new. The old rules don't apply. We need incredibly talented people to figure out how AI vision scales across facilities and saves billions while reshaping how factories operate. Once it's trusted, it becomes foundational infrastructure. We're trusted by companies like Ford, Honda, Toyota, SpaceX, and Milliken. Our systems are built for real factory conditionsdeterministic, edge-first, and deployable at scale. The people who define how this gets done will shape the next decade of American manufacturing. About The Role We're building the foundation of our field team and need someone who can help manufacturers save millions in labor and quality costs by deploying AI vision systems that actually work in production. You'll get an inside look into the secret world of manufacturingworking directly with engineers at the world's largest manufacturers to realize the potential of AI cameras. This is a field-first role based in Chicago. You'll spend 60-80% of your time on factory floors across the Midwest, finding projects where AI inspection can have real impact, running technical evaluations, and making sure deployments succeed in live production environments. You'll learn how to make AI cameras work welland just as importantly, which projects are likely impossible. This role sits at the intersection of technical depth, customer relationships, and commercial impact. You'll operate with high autonomyno scripts, no hand-holding. You'll be trusted to ask the right questions, diagnose problems in messy conditions, make field judgment calls, and move projects forward even when information is incomplete. With support from Overview engineers, you'll become the technical expert customers rely on. We can teach you manufacturing, machine vision, and our technology. What we need you to show up with is the ability to operate independently, build trust in high-stakes conversations, learn fast through hands-on exposure, and own outcomes without excuses. It's going to be hard work. This role is for someone who: Has already proven they can operate at a high level in professional or demanding environments (2+ years) Is curious, hard-working, and hungry to grow faster than they thought possible Thrives in real-world conditions factory floors, tight timelines, ambiguity, and pressure Sees 60-80% travel as an opportunity to build expertise and customer relationships, not a burden Wants to be exceptionally great at something that matters If you've been the person others come to when things need to get done, if you learn by doing, and if you want ownership over real outcomes this role is built for you. Why This Role Is Exciting You're entering manufacturing AI at the perfect moment Guide customers through their first real AI wins with technology that delivers measurable results on day onehigher yield, lower scrap, fewer escapes. This isn't experimental; it's production-critical infrastructure customers depend on for real decisions. Work with the world's best solving real problems Deploy AI vision systems at Ford, Honda, Toyota, SpaceX, and Milliken. Your work directly impacts yield, scrap, throughput, and quality across automotive, aerospace, electronics, and advanced materialsno two deployments look the same. Own deeply technical, hands-on worknot just slides You're on the factory floor tuning cameras, lighting, optics, and AI models. This role operates at the intersection of hardware, software, and manufacturing. Customers rely on these systems for production decisions, not pilots. Sell a product customers genuinely love Overview systems are known for accuracy, ease of use, and deployability. Conversations are technical, collaborative, and grounded in outcomes. You benefit from strong inbound interest and urgency driven by competitive pressure. Shape what we build next
