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 a Full-Stack Software Engineer to build the software that turns ultraspectral sensing data and AI models into intelligence products customers use to make operational decisions. This role will own work across web interfaces, backend services, APIs, and geospatial data workflows, partnering with product, design, AI, and data infrastructure from early prototypes through production deployments.
Design, build, and maintain end-to-end product workflows across modern web interfaces, backend services, APIs, and data integrations.
Turn high-dimensional sensing data, geospatial context, and model outputs into clear, responsive applications for expert users.
Build backend services that support secure, reliable access to imagery, maps, analytical results, and customer-specific workflows.
Define and maintain interfaces between the product layer, data infrastructure, AI systems, and external customer systems.
Own software quality through automated testing, observability, performance tuning, CI/CD, documentation, and production support.
Work with product leaders, designers, engineers, and users to scope features, make tradeoffs, and deliver complete capabilities from problem definition through deployment.
3+ years of experience building and operating full-stack software products or equivalent production systems.
Strong frontend development skills with JavaScript or TypeScript, React, and modern web application patterns.
Experience building backend APIs and services with Python and frameworks such as FastAPI or Flask.
Experience deploying and operating cloud services in AWS, including containerized or serverless workloads, queues, and relational databases such as Postgres.
Experience working with geospatial data, spatial databases, or processing tools such as PostGIS, GDAL, cloud-optimized GeoTIFFs, or NetCDF.
Strong software design, testing, debugging, and communication skills, with the ability to own work across technical boundaries.
Experience with Mapbox, TiTiler, tile servers, or other geospatial visualization and delivery systems.
Experience integrating AI or machine-learning outputs, including language-model capabilities, into production software.
Familiarity with remote sensing, spectral imagery, or industrial and scientific data workflows.
Experience delivering customer-facing products in an early-stage company or other fast-moving technical environment.
Users can move from complex sensing data and model outputs to clear workflows that support operational decisions.
Product interfaces and backend services remain performant, observable, and reliable as deployments move from pilots into production.
Shared interfaces, components, tests, and documentation reduce integration work and help the team ship new capabilities faster.
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.
