Verdict
Cognitiv is a legitimate, established AI/adtech company with a reachable website and active careers section, and the posting uses a known ATS provider (Greenhouse), both strong legitimacy signals. However, the posting claims a Vancouver, BC location while the company's actual offices are all US-based (New York HQ, plus Bellevue, San Mateo, Chicago), creating a significant location mismatch. This discrepancy—combined with the absence of any Vancouver office in company records—suggests either a remote role that should be clearly labeled as such, or a misrepresented location, warranting a medium-risk assessment.
