Overview
Job Description
Magic’s mission is to build safe AGI that accelerates humanity’s progress on the world’s most important problems. We believe the most promising path to safe AGI lies in automating research and code generation to improve models and solve alignment more reliably than humans can alone. Our approach combines frontier-scale pre-training, domain-specific RL, ultra-long context, and inference-time compute to achieve this goal.
About the role
As a Software Engineer on the Product team, you will build and scale the user-facing systems that sit directly on top of Magic’s long-context models.
This is an end-to-end role spanning frontend, backend, APIs, and deep model integration. You will own product surfaces from problem framing through implementation and iteration, working closely with RL Research & Environments to translate capability improvements into real user impact.
Magic’s long-context models introduce distinct product challenges: making complex behavior understandable, exposing control without overwhelming users, and maintaining reliability under long-running or high-context workloads. You will design systems that make advanced model behavior intuitive and production-ready.
This role can evolve into broader ownership of product architecture, defining AI-native interaction patterns, or leading major product initiatives built on top of Magic’s long-context models.
What you’ll work on
Build and maintain web applications and developer-facing tools powered by long-context models
Design and implement backend APIs and service integrations
Integrate model capabilities into usable product workflows
Improve reliability, observability, and performance of product-facing systems
Collaborate closely with RL and research teams to translate capability gains into shipped features
Iterate quickly based on product feedback and real-world usage
What we’re looking for
Strong software engineering fundamentals across the stack
Experience building and shipping production-grade products
High product judgment and strong taste in interaction design
Ability to translate complex technical systems into simple user workflows
Comfort operating in ambiguous, fast-moving environments
Track record of owning product work end-to-end
Compensation, benefits, and perks (US):
Annual salary ranges between $200K - $550K depending on experience
Equity is a significant part of total compensation, in addition to salary
401(k) plan with 6% salary matching
Generous health, dental and vision insurance for you and your dependents
Unlimited paid time off
Visa sponsorship and relocation stipend to bring you to SF, if possible
A small, fast-paced, highly focused team
Magic strives to be the place where high-potential individuals can do their best work. We value quick learning and grit just as much as skill and experience.
Our culture
Integrity. Words and actions should be aligned
Hands-on. At Magic, everyone is building
Teamwork. We move as one team, not N individuals
Focus. Safely deploy AGI. Everything else is noise
Quality. Magic should feel like magic
