Our Company

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming our world. It can perform the kinds of cognitive functions that previously only humans could do, such as perceiving interactions across different environments with the ability to quickly learn and then solve complex problems. At Recogni we have innovative approaches to machine learning, high resolution imaging, perception processing, and high-performance computation with industry-leading low power efficiency. We’re a well funded, fast-paced startup company with headquarters in San Jose, CA, and Munich, Germany; we also have many talented team members working remotely. We’re at the leading edge of advancing the latest research and product improvements for AI inference solutions that will make AI even more useful for compelling new applications. 

About the role

  • Hands on responsibility for design using CAD tools and provide all necessary drawings, critical dimensions and 3D files to allow designs to be prototypes and manufactured.
  • Schedule and manage peer and cross functional team reviews of mechanical designs.
  • Structure, release and make changes to Bill of Materials (BOM) of designs using product lifecycle management tools
  • Create 3D models for thermal simulations and drive thermal solution development
