About The Role
About <Overview.aiOverview.ai> brings the cutting edge of AI computer vision to manufacturing, solving inspection problems that traditional machine vision could not handle. We build GPU-powered smart cameras, deploy them on production lines around the world, and operate the platform that keeps those fleets running.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).The RoleAs a Junior IIoT Engineer, you will help bring our systems live at customer sites: connecting smart cameras to line PLCs, building the logic that runs the inspections, and making sure everything runs reliably on the factory <floor.You> will be mentored and grow into someone who can own an entire deployment.
