Applications Engineer

San Francisco, CA · Applications · Full-time, hybrid

Overview.ai is bringing the cutting edge of AI computer vision to manufacturing, solving inspection problems that were previously not solvable with traditional machine vision. We're a full-stack company: we deploy GPU-powered cameras on production lines, run inference on the edge, and operate a platform that supports large fleets of devices deployed across the world.

We're growing extremely fast. Our customers love the product because it works: high accuracy, fast deployment, and an operator-friendly experience that makes real factory rollouts possible, not just pilots.

We're looking for a hands-on Applications Engineer to help develop, validate, and deploy AI-powered vision inspection systems, with a strong focus on imaging feasibility and technical ownership of our San Francisco lab.

Customer samples arrive here before anything gets deployed. You'll determine how to make defects visible, selecting the right lighting, lenses, cameras, and imaging configurations to build reliable inspection solutions.

But the work doesn't stop in the lab. You'll also help bring these solutions to life on production lines,...
