Business Development Representative - LATAM-Based
About
Overview.ai is bringing cutting-edge AI computer vision to manufacturing, solving inspection problems that were impossible 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 fleet platform that manages devices deployed worldwide.
Why this matters
Unlike legacy vision systems that fail in real-world conditions, our platform actually works in production. High accuracy. Fast deployment. An operator-friendly experience that makes real factory rollouts possible, not just pilots. The proof: We grew ~700% last year, tripled our headcount, and are scaling across North America with growing demand in LATAM. We're one of the fastest-growing industrial AI companies in the world, and demand keeps accelerating because the product delivers.
WHY WE'RE HIRING A BDR NOW
We've nailed product-market fit in North America, and demand continues to accelerate across U.S. manufacturing. We need a BDR who understands how manufacturers operate, can identify real opportunities, and help us expand our footprint across key industrial markets. This isn't about first-touch outreach. It's about finding actual manufacturing applications where our technology solves a concrete problem.
Your job
- Uncover use cases
- Disqualify early when there's no real opportunity
- Hand off qualified prospects to our Vision Sales Engineers for technical evaluation
THE ROLE
We're looking for a driven, resourceful, and disciplined BDR based in LATAM to help us expand our footprint across U.S. manufacturing accounts. This role is focused on identifying real applications, not just booking meetings. You'll be responsible for engaging U.S.-based prospects, uncovering potential inspection use cases, and qualifying whether there's a meaningful opportunity for our team to pursue. This is not a volume-for-the-sake-of-volume role. We care about quality conversations that lead to real pipeline.
Location
Remote, based anywhere in LATAM. You'll work U.S. business hours (Eastern or Central time overlap) to stay aligned with prospects and your Vision Sales Engineer counterparts. Preferred locations (strong overlap with U.S. Eastern/Central time zones): Mexico City, Guadalajara, or Monterrey, MexicoBogotá or Medellín, ColombiaSan José, Costa RicaPanama City, PanamaBuenos Aires, Argentina (Central time overlap is partial).
What You'll Do
- Identify and engage manufacturing prospects across the United States: automotive suppliers, electronics manufacturers, industrial OEMs, food & beverage manufacturers, and other high-volume production environments.
- Use phone, email, LinkedIn, and creative outbound strategies.
- Map the decision-makers. For each target: find the Quality/Engineering owner (Quality Manager, Manufacturing Engineer, Operations Lead), locate them on LinkedIn, craft tailored outreach based on inspection challenges we've solved for similar companies.
- Lead with curiosity. Uncover the real blocker: Is it cost? Downtime? False positives in current systems? Get specific. Understand why inspection is hard for them.
- Qualify ruthlessly. Ask good questions. Think critically about whether an opportunity is real.
- Partner with Vision Sales Engineers. When you've identified a genuine use case, hand off clean, actionable insights. Then stay in the loop to learn what worked and what didn't.
- Keep HubSpot clean. Consistent data, clear activity logs, detailed notes. Your future self will thank you.
- Continuously refine. Test messaging. Track what resonates. Share learnings with the team. We iterate fast.
