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 Technical Lead Manager
Verify your degree aligns with the role
USCIS scrutinizes whether your degree field directly relates to the Technical Lead Manager position. A computer science or engineering degree is straightforward, but a business or unrelated degree will require your employer to document a direct theoretical connection.
Cross-reference your LCA wage level carefully
Technical Lead Managers typically file at DOL wage Level III or IV. Use the OFLC Wage Search to confirm the prevailing wage for your specific SOC code and location before your employer submits the LCA, so the offered salary clears the threshold.
Target employers with cap-exempt pathways
Universities, nonprofit research organizations, and certain government entities are exempt from the H-1B cap and lottery. If you're open to a Technical Lead Manager role in higher education or research, you can start any time of year without waiting for the April registration window.
Search verified H-1B sponsors on Migrate Mate
Filter Technical Lead Manager roles by employers with active H-1B LCA filing history on Migrate Mate. This surfaces companies that have already navigated the specialty occupation determination for this title, reducing the risk of an RFE on your petition.
Flag management scope in your offer letter
Technical Lead Manager roles combine technical and supervisory duties. Ask your employer to specify both dimensions in the offer letter and LCA job description. USCIS has issued RFEs on hybrid titles where the management component was unclear, so detail matters here.
Time your premium processing to the lottery outcome
Premium processing only applies after USCIS selects your registration. Don't assume your employer will upgrade automatically. Confirm in advance whether they'll file with premium processing so you can plan your start date and any change-of-status timeline accurately.
H-1B Visa Technical Lead Manager: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Technical Lead Manager role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, provided the role requires at least a bachelor's degree in a specific technical field such as computer science, software engineering, or a closely related discipline. USCIS looks at both the duties listed in the LCA and the employer's internal requirements. Hybrid roles that blend management with hands-on technical work generally qualify, but your employer's job description must make the degree requirement explicit rather than preferred.
Which SOC code typically applies to Technical Lead Manager positions?
Most Technical Lead Manager roles are filed under SOC 11-3021 (Computer and Information Systems Managers), though some employers use 15-1252 (Software Developers) or a related engineering code depending on how the duties are weighted. The SOC code your employer selects on the LCA determines your prevailing wage level, so it's worth confirming with HR before the DOL filing. O*NET profiles for these codes describe the typical duty mix in detail.
How do I find employers who actively sponsor H-1B visas for Technical Lead Manager roles?
Migrate Mate filters job listings by verified H-1B LCA filing history, so you can identify companies that have already filed for this specific title rather than relying on recruiters' claims. Look for employers with consistent multi-year filing patterns in your target location, since they're more likely to have an internal immigration process already in place for this level.
Can I negotiate a promotion from Senior Engineer to Technical Lead Manager while on H-1B status?
Yes, but a promotion that materially changes your job duties, title, or wage level requires your employer to file an amended H-1B petition before the change takes effect. If the new role involves a different SOC code or a significantly different job description, USCIS treats it as a new petition. Your employer should file the amended petition and receive a receipt notice before you formally move into the Technical Lead Manager role.
What happens to my H-1B if my employer is acquired or undergoes a merger?
If the successor company is a bona fide successor-in-interest and assumes the original employer's liabilities, you can continue working under the existing H-1B while an amended petition is filed. You should not stop working during the transition. However, if the acquiring entity is structurally different or the role changes significantly, a new or amended petition is required. USCIS guidance on corporate restructuring covers the specific conditions that qualify for successor-in-interest treatment.
