On Tuesday, UVeye named a new vice president for North American sales who previously held executive roles at KAR Global, BacklotCars and Cox Automotive.

Taking on this role for the supplier of automated vehicle inspection systems is Jamie Anderson, who will be based in Charlotte, N.C.

Prior to joining UVeye, Anderson was vice president for dealer sales at KAR. He previously had served as a divisional sales director at BacklotCars and a portfolio sales manager at Cox Automotive.

“The extensive automotive dealership and fleet sales experience that Jamie Anderson brings to UVeye from Cox, BacklotCars and KAR Global will help further accelerate the rapid growth we’re experiencing in North America,” UVeye co-founder and chief executive officer Amir Hever said in a news release. “His ability to develop award-winning sales teams is sure to benefit UVeye in the months and years ahead as well.”

Hever added that UVeye will have a significant number of new job openings in the U.S. during the next 12 to 18 months due to strong interest in UVeye’s inspection systems among dealers, auctions and major fleet operators.

Founded in 2016, UVeye offers automated vehicle-inspection systems. UVeye explained that its systems utilize a unique combination of proprietary algorithms, cloud architecture, artificial intelligence, machine learning and sensor fusion technologies.

The company said its drive-through systems can detect any external or mechanical flaw and identify anomalies, modifications or foreign objects from under and from any side of a vehicle.

UVeye currently has facilities in North America, Europe and the Asia Pacific region, including offices in Israel, Japan, Germany and the United States. CarMax recently joined a group of UVeye investors that currently includes Volvo Cars, Hyundai Motors and Toyota Tsusho.
