## Description

**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
**Overview is scaling teams across North America, APAC, and Europe. Our HR foundation needs to keep pace: compliance across every country we operate in, and processes that scale instead of being rebuilt every time we grow. This is a hands-on Lead role. You will diagnose and fix compliance gaps, own HR for our China team, and build the programs that make global HR run cleanly. This position is a high-level, high-impact, hands on role managing a small team of 1-2 direct reports (China and Taiwan) where you will have ownership and the creativity to develop a world class HR function from the ground up.

You will report into our Head of Global Recruiting. This role requires between 15% and 40% travel depending on your location. If you are located near our HQ in San Francisco and work hybrid, you will only be required to travel 15% of the time.

**WHY THIS ROLE IS EXCITING**

- **Build the global function:** You design the compliance and HR infrastructure Overview scales on, not inherit someone else’s.

- **Leverage:** Every process you build runs across multiple countries and every new hire.

- **Global scope:** North America, APAC, and Europe, with real problems to solve on day one.

- **Ownership:** High autonomy, direct access to leadership, and a seat that shapes how the company grows.

**WHAT YOU’LL OWN**

- **Global HR compliance:** Own employment compliance across every country we operate in; find gaps and close them.

- **China HR:** Own HR for the China team, partnering with your Shanghai HR & Admin Manager direct report on day-to-day execution.

- **Process and program build:** Design scalable processes for onboarding, offboarding, contracts, leave, payroll inputs across countries, and performance management/review processes.

- **Global policy:** Build a global policy framework and handbook with country-specific addenda.

- **International expansion:** Partner on new country entry, including entity vs. EOR decisions and employment setup.

- **Manager support:** Be the go-to resource for managers on employee relations, performance, and policy questions.

- **HR data and audit readiness:** Keep employee data, contracts, and records accurate, reportable, and audit-ready.

- **Vendors and partners:** Manage EOR, payroll, benefits, and employment counsel relationships.

**WHO YOU ARE**
Required

- 5+ years in HR, with hands-on ownership of compliance and HR operations.

- Direct China HR experience, including labor contracts, social insurance and housing fund, and local labor law.

- Global HR compliance across multiple countries, including employment law, contracts, and statutory benefits.

- US HR compliance across federal and multi-state requirements.

- Has built HR processes or programs from scratch at a scaling company.

- Operates as a hands-on executor, not just an advisor.

- Works effectively across time zones with teams in Asia and Europe.

Strong Preferences

- HR experience across APAC beyond China (for example Taiwan, Vietnam, Singapore, Japan, Korea).

- EMEA HR compliance experience.

- Experience with EOR and PEO models and entity setup decisions.

- Mandarin proficiency.

- Background in manufacturing, hardware, or companies with employees deployed on customer sites.

**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.
