Creditworthiness assessment beyond FICO for lenders
Welcome to Matter, where we are building the future of vision AI: pairing a world-first sensor that sees molecular chemistry, temperature, and 3D shape with a Large World Model that will be the most powerful intelligence engine for the physical world. This system doesn't just see what something looks like; it understands everything from a single pixel. We call this Superintelligent Vision.
Our team has delivered technologies to Mars for NASA/JPL, designed advanced sensors for U.S. Defense, and frontier artificial intelligence systems. We are now building the next generation of space- and airborne-based sensing systems.
Matter is hiring an Electrical Architect to define and own the electrical architecture for advanced sensing payloads and supporting airborne and spaceborne systems. Reporting to Victor Moreno, this role will guide interfaces, power, signal integrity, design decisions, and technical reviews across the payload electronics stack.
Define the end-to-end electrical architecture and maintain clear interfaces across payload subsystems.
Lead trade studies and design decisions involving power distribution, signal integrity, data paths, grounding, and reliability.
Establish design requirements, budgets, review criteria, and verification approaches with systems and engineering teams.
Provide technical guidance through schematic design, board development, bring-up, integration, and test.
Identify cross-system risks early and drive them to clear owners, decisions, and evidence-based closure.
Experience architecting complex electrical systems that combine multiple boards, sensors, processors, power domains, and interfaces.
Strong fundamentals in electronics, power, high-speed or sensitive signal paths, grounding, and hardware integration.
Ability to lead technical reviews and communicate architectural tradeoffs across disciplines.
Hands-on judgment informed by hardware development, bring-up, test, and failure investigation.
Experience with aerospace, defense, imaging, sensing, avionics, or other high-reliability hardware.
Experience designing for constrained power, mass, thermal, electromagnetic, or environmental conditions.
Familiarity with qualification, production transition, supplier coordination, and configuration control.
The payload has a coherent, documented electrical architecture with clear interfaces and margins.
Cross-board and cross-subsystem risks are resolved before they become integration failures.
Design reviews and verification evidence support confident progression into system test and flight readiness.
This role is based in El Segundo, CA, and requires onsite work.
To comply with U.S. export regulations, applicants must be one of the following:
A U.S. citizen or national
A lawful permanent resident (green card holder)
Eligible to obtain required authorizations from the U.S. Department of State
At Matter, we believe in rewarding high performance and providing the support you need to thrive. Our compensation and benefits package includes:
Competitive compensation based on experience
Early-stage equity package
100% employer-paid health, dental, and vision coverage
Opportunity to work on novel sensing, data, and AI systems with real-world deployment paths to the largest industries in the world
Matter Intelligence is an equal opportunity employer. We welcome candidates from all backgrounds who can raise the ambition and performance of the team.
Creditworthiness assessment beyond FICO for lenders
Matter Intelligence builds credit assessment tools that go beyond traditional FICO scores. Its offerings analyze a wide range of signals and data to judge an individual’s potential, providing a more complete view of creditworthiness. The system works by running advanced algorithms on diverse data sources to produce a risk score that financial institutions can use when deciding whether to extend credit. This approach differs from many competitors by focusing on broader, signals-based indicators and inclusive finance, aiming to capture aspects of credit risk that conventional scores miss. Revenue comes from selling or licensing its credit assessment services to banks, lenders, and other partners who benefit from improved risk insights and the ability to serve a larger pool of customers. The goal is to expand access to financing and enable more people, including underserved groups, to qualify for credit through more accurate and equitable assessments.
