Waterloo, Canada DarwinAI Corp Full time

**Who We Are**

DarwinAI is an innovative industry 4.0 company that is transforming manufacturing by instilling trust in Artificial Intelligence. Our new visual quality inspection system provides electronics manufacturers with an end-to-end offering that improves product quality and production efficiency for Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs). Numerous Fortune 500 companies have adopted our technology to integrate AI into their processes and create tangible value.

PCBs, which are ubiquitous and embedded in everything from microwaves to cameras, are notoriously difficult to visually inspect due to different board sizes and complicated geometries. Moreover, the global shortage of semiconductors and PCBs, exemplified by the recent CHIPS act in the United States, has given rise to circumstances that favor disruption. Disruption that we are proud and excited to spearhead.

Our IP stems from years of research (+500 research papers and awards) led by Dr. Alexander Wong, Canada’s Research Chair in AI, at the Vision and Image Processing Lab at the University of Waterloo. It has been featured at numerous conferences, including MIT EmTech, NeurIPS, GTC, and most recently, the IPC Expo.

DarwinAI has also received several accolades, including numerous awards from Great Place to Work® as a top Canadian employer, named to the IRCAI/United Nations’s Top 10 Outstanding Sustainability Projects, and CB Insight's AI 100 list of the 100 most promising private AI companies globally.

**Role Description**

We’re a fast-moving organization that fosters a dynamic, collaborative and exciting work environment for all our employees. We’re looking for a passionate, hardworking individual who is eager to learn and flourish in this atmosphere.

It will additionally require that you work closely with our procurement team to identify and secure all the necessary parts for production. Over time, you’ll liaison with an external manufacturing partner to construct our systems at scale, troubleshooting and iterating as necessary.

- Self-starter, with the ability to manage set objectives and execute with minimum supervision
- Experience with documentation of control practices including detailed Bill of Materials and management of controlled product changes
- Ability to effectively collaborate with other teams, including process improvements and documentation
- Working in an agile startup environment where you can make a genuine impact makes you excited
- Ability and willingness to physically come into our Waterloo based headquarters to interact with the machinery on a very regular basis
- Professional Engineering (P.Eng.) designation

**Nice to haves include**:

- Familiarity with industrial automation systems such as: PLCs, conveyor systems, machine vision cameras and optics
- Familiarity with PCBA manufacturing

**What we have to offer you**:

- A rewarding career path where you can sharpen your skills and showcase your talent
- An environment where you’re recognized, appreciated and rewarded for hard work
- Unlimited Paid Time Off (Yes. Unlimited paid vacation - within reason, of course)

- Employee Stock Option Purchase Plan
- Comprehensive Group Health, Dental & Vision Benefit Plan
