About Matrix R&D

Matrix R&D is on a mission to prove that Indian Engineers can design, develop and manufacture world‑class technology products and sell to the entire world. Matrix R&D is a group of like‑minded engineers and technologists who have the Will, Courage and Madness to achieve their mission. It is a serious technology workplace, and its sanctity is driven by its code of conduct. Code of conduct at MATRIX R&D includes being accountable to deliverables; fully dedicated to work during work hours; collaborative approach; will‑do attitude; professional etiquettes; cordial behaviour; decent‑professional dressing. At MATRIX R&D, no one teaches, everyone learns. Hence, you need not be surprised when you get tasked on a live project on your very first day. Someone might hand‑hold you for a couple of days but not more. We at MATRIX R&D believe that the key to success is competence and accountability towards the work and NOT experience. Experience is a mere catalyst! We at MATRIX R&D are fanatical about doing things ‘First Time Right’ and that is what we expect from all who become part of our team. FTR reduces rework, reduces cost and improves time to market. It also reduces fatigue of doing the same work over and over again. More importantly, it gives a sense of accomplishment. If this is something new for you, we suggest you unlearn everything you have conceived or perceived about quality till now – understand, adapt and practice the ‘First Time Right’ (FTR) philosophy with us. We have set an aspirational goal of First Time Right design that many will say is impossible to achieve especially in the software world, but we think this is the most important ingredient to become one of the best product engineering companies in the world and build world‑class products for the world. We have no fear of failing or taking on uncharted areas of work, but we have a lot of productive paranoia about what could go wrong and use that fear to turn that into clear‑headed action and reduce the chances of failure.
