About Matroid

Matroid is a full-service computer vision company that has developed an end-to-end platform allowing enterprise customers to rapidly train and deploy automated visual inspection on imagery including EO, IR, X-Ray, CT, OCT, and others.

Founded in 2016 by a Stanford professor, Matroid has raised $33.5 million from NEA, Energize Ventures, and Intel Capital and has a broad range of customers and partners in manufacturing, industrial IoT, and security.

How will large language models transform computer vision? How do we bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI research and real-world deployment? Can computer vision answer more real-world questions — reliably, accurately, and responsibly?

These are the challenges we wrestle with every day on the Matroid product team. If you’re excited to turn these questions into impactful, user-facing products, we’d love to work with you for summer 2026.

What you’ll be doing — over the course of the summer, you’ll:

• Design and develop a significant feature computer vision platform that is truly the first of its kind
• Improve site performance on both the client and server-side
• Incorporate user feedback to design and build a better product
• Create better visualizations for the outputs of computer vision models running on video streams and images
• Ensure that our platform features work at an ever-growing scale
  
  

How You’ll Be Doing It
