Position Summary & Responsibilities

Who are we?

MATTE is a 360° full-service creative studio at the convergence of hype, storytelling and design. We bring people together to inspire new ways of engaging, to provoke long term progress, and to entertain audiences around the world, while helping forward-thinking brands and institutions nimbly and truly do the same. Our studio capabilities range from strategic ideation and insights, creative development, branding and identity, experiential, web design and development, campaigns and content creation, all the way through full-scale production and execution.

About this role:

MATTE is seeking a Creative Technologist to sit at the intersection of creativity, technology, and production — someone who can build, prototype, and operationalize new ways of working while owning the digital experiences that represent MATTE and our clients. This is a hands-on, forward-looking role for a builder who is as fluent in creative craft as they are in the tools and technologies reshaping how creative work gets made.

At the center of this role is the implementation of AI across the studio. You will center the evaluation and rollout of AI-enabled workflows — identifying where emerging tools can accelerate and elevate our output, then building the systems, prompts, and processes that make them a practical, dependable part of how the team works every day. Just as importantly, you will push MATTE’s creative and technical ambitions forward, prototyping new ideas and translating experimentation into shipped, real-world work.

Alongside this, you will own MATTE’s website and oversee our client-facing digital build projects — from concept and design through development and launch — ensuring everything meets MATTE’s standard for craft and performs flawlessly across platforms.

The ideal candidate is equally comfortable in Figma and in code, energized by new technology, and rigorous about turning experimentation into scalable practice. They are curious, resourceful, and excited to help define what creative technology looks like inside a studio still writing its own playbook.
