Technical Marketing & Partnerships Lead
Remote · Growth · Full time
ABOUT OVERVIEW.AI
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.
THE OPPORTUNITY
Manufacturing is a relationship-driven industry, and the best opportunities rarely come from cold outreach. They come from trade show floors, industry associations, research institutes, systems integrators, and the practitioner communities buyers trust before they ever evaluate a vendor. We already have the product and the demand. What we do not have is one person who owns how manufacturers discover and trust Overview outside our own website. Today that work is split across leadership and happens in the gaps. This role makes it a function.
WHY THIS ROLE IS EXCITING
- Build it, do not inherit it: no playbook, no existing team, no legacy program to maintain. You define what this function is at Overview.
- Technical depth is the point: this is not a sponsorship coordinator role and not a traditional marketing role. Your credibility with integrators and controls engineers is the asset.
- Assets already waiting for an owner: named technology partners, paid memberships we currently underuse, and real demand from customers running in production.
- Founder access and equity upside: direct line to leadership, and your work visibly changes the company's trajectory.
WHAT YOU'LL OWN
- Event calendar and execution: Own our shows end to end, IMTS, Automate, Semicon, Electronica, and the partner events we should be at, including booth strategy, logistics, staffing, collateral, and on-site execution, and demo the product yourself.
- Event to pipeline motion: Build the repeatable mechanics behind every show: lead capture, structured follow-up, attribution in HubSpot, and ROI reported per event.
- Community footprint: Stand up Overview's independent presence where practitioners actually talk, a community hub on overview.ai plus a real presence on Reddit (r/PLC, r/computervision, r/manufacturing) and the automate.org forum.
- Technical voice: Establish an authentic engineering voice that leads with useful, vendor-neutral guidance, discloses our affiliation, and earns trust rather than drops links. You answer a real inspection or controls question without an SE in the room.
- Reviews and listings: Seed and grow the review sources buyers and AI assistants cite, including G2, Gartner Peer Insights, Qviro, and Capterra.
- Pipeline and reporting: Tie every event, community, integrator, and partner activity to tracked and influenced pipeline in HubSpot, cut what does not work, and partner closely with Business Development, Vision Sales Engineers, and leadership so activity turns into revenue.
WHO YOU ARE
Required
- Technical fluency in machine vision or manufacturing. You have worked customer-facing as an applications engineer, field application engineer, sales or solutions engineer, systems integrator, or in a comparable technical role in machine vision, industrial automation, robotics, or industrial software.
- You can stand on your own technically. Run a live product demo, scope an inspection or integration use case, and hold a credible conversation with an integrator, controls engineer, or plant team with no sales engineer present.
- 3 to 5+ years customer-facing in a technical or GTM role in machine vision, manufacturing automation, or robotics.
- You bring a playbook, not just attendance. You have owned trade shows from booth to follow-up, you know what good looks like on a show floor, and you can name the pipeline your events produced and how you tracked it.
- You build from zero and ramp fast. You have stood up a program with no playbook, no team, and unclear scope, and you get productive without a structure waiting for you.
- You write for engineers, not for marketing. You can speak and write to manufacturing engineers in a way they find useful, vendor-neutral, and credible. Expect to show us a short work sample.
- Coachable and direct. You take feedback well, adopt how the team already works, and improve on it rather than arriving with a fixed method.
- Willing to travel across North America to shows, customer sites, and partner organizations, roughly 30% for the first two months and 25% ongoing.
Strong Preferences
- Direct vendor or integrator experience at a machine vision, inspection, or industrial automation company (Cognex, Keyence, Zebra, Basler, Landing AI, Instrumental, and similar) or at a machine-vision systems integrator.
- An existing community or channel footprint. You are already active and respected in engineering communities, or you have grown a channel presence before, so the trust-building starts on day one instead of month three.
- Existing relationships with manufacturing associations (A3, ARM Institute, Manufacturing USA, MEP, automate.org) or with systems integrators.
- Co-marketing or co-sell experience with technology partners: joint webinars, co-marketing programs, or referral paths.
- Familiarity with HubSpot and modern GTM and community tooling.
- Content and social range across LinkedIn, Reddit, and short-form video.
- Based in San Francisco. This role is open to remote candidates across North America, and we have a preference for the Bay Area given the proximity to the team and to the hardware.
WHY OVERVIEW.AI
- Extreme growth and real-world impact: We're not building demos. We're deploying AI systems on real production lines, at scale.
- Talent density: You'll work with world-class engineers and operators across AI, embedded systems, and enterprise deployment.
- Front-row seat to the AI manufacturing wave: One of the biggest transformations happening in industry right now.
- Ownership: Your work directly changes the trajectory of the company.
- Global exposure: You'll work with the most advanced customers and factories in the world.
Compensation Range: $90K - $120K

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Partnerships Associate
Align your degree to the SOC code
Partnerships roles typically file under business operations SOC codes. Confirm your degree field maps directly to that classification before applying. A mismatch between your transcript and the SOC code is a common RFE trigger USCIS flags at adjudication.
Check employer LCA history on Migrate Mate
Search Partnerships Associate LCA filings by employer on Migrate Mate to confirm which companies have a documented H-1B sponsorship track record for this role, not just general engineering or tech positions.
Verify prevailing wage before salary negotiation
Look up the Level I through Level IV wage range for your target SOC code and metro area using the OFLC Wage Search. Your offered salary must meet or exceed the applicable level, and the LCA locks that wage in before USCIS reviews the I-129.
Target companies enrolled in E-Verify
Employers must be E-Verify participants to hire you on H-1B. For Partnerships roles at startups or early-stage companies, confirm E-Verify enrollment status before accepting an offer, since smaller firms sometimes haven't yet completed registration.
Document cross-functional scope in your offer letter
Partnerships roles that blend sales, business development, and account management can face specialty occupation challenges at USCIS. Push your employer to define the role's duties using degree-specific language that ties directly to your field of study in the offer letter and support documents.
Use O*NET to anchor your specialty occupation argument
Pull the O*NET occupation profile for your target SOC code and identify the education and knowledge requirements listed. This data is directly usable in the I-129 support letter to demonstrate that the position meets the specialty occupation standard.
H-1B Visa Partnerships Associate: Frequently Asked Questions
Do Partnerships Associate roles qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
They can, but the classification requires more documentation than engineering roles. USCIS evaluates whether the position normally requires a bachelor's degree in a specific field. Partnerships roles that blend relationship management with technical product knowledge, data analysis, or finance tend to qualify more cleanly than generalist business development titles. Your employer's job description needs to tie duties directly to a degree-requiring discipline.
Which employers sponsor H-1B visas for Partnerships Associate jobs?
Technology platforms, SaaS companies, fintech firms, and marketplace businesses are the most consistent H-1B sponsors for Partnerships roles. These employers typically have in-house immigration counsel and recurring LCA filings. You can browse H-1B-sponsored Partnerships Associate openings directly on Migrate Mate, filtered by employers with verified LCA filing history for this role type.
What happens to my H-1B status if I move from an individual contributor partnerships role to a team lead position?
A material change in job duties or the SOC code used for your LCA requires your employer to file an amended H-1B petition before the change takes effect. If the new role shifts from a business operations SOC code to a management classification, the prevailing wage requirement and specialty occupation analysis both need to be re-run. Skipping the amended petition is a status violation.
Can I negotiate my salary if the LCA prevailing wage locks in a minimum?
Yes, the LCA sets a floor, not a ceiling. Your employer files the LCA at the prevailing wage level that matches your experience and location, and you can negotiate above that amount. What you can't do is accept a final offer below the certified LCA wage without triggering a DOL compliance issue for the employer.
How does the H-1B cap lottery affect my job search timeline for Partnerships Associate roles?
Cap-subject H-1B petitions require registration in March for an October 1 start date, which means most employers won't extend offers for cap-subject candidates until Q1 of the target year. If you're on OPT with cap-gap protection, your authorized period extends through September 30, giving you continuous work authorization while the petition is pending at USCIS.
