About Matroid
Matroid makes computer vision simple. We’ve built an easy-to-use and intuitive studio for creating and deploying detectors (computer vision models) to search visual media for people, objects, and events - no programming required.
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, security, and more. We’re leaders in machine learning and big data. We’ve published research, a textbook, have 10 computer vision patents pending, and annually hold a world-class conference - Scaled Machine Learning (ScaledML scaledml.org).
You’ll be working at our new office in downtown Palo Alto, just a five minute walk from the Caltrain station.
