At Standard Cognition, we’re rethinking the way retail works. We are enabling autonomous checkout for brick & mortar retailers with our AI-powered computer vision platform. Since launching in November 2017, Standard has contracts with multiple global retailers and is in the process of deploying our Standard Checkout solution across thousands of stores globally. We’re backed by some of Silicon Valley’s leading investors including CRV, Initialized, Draper Associates and YCombinator. We announced our Series B in July 2019.

Standard Cognition is a young organization, and as the needs of the organization change, you’ll constantly be faced with new challenges. You will support our growing People Team as an individual contributor to our growing employee base. You will work with our current HR, Operations, and Recruiting teams to balance a mix of reactive and proactive, deep-thinking responsibilities.
