What are the responsibilities and job description for the Software Engineer position at Magic?

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 test-time compute to achieve this goal.

About the role:

As a Software Engineer, you will design, implement, and maintain scalable solutions and applications to accelerate our research and deploy our latest models.

What you might work on:

  • Design, implement and maintain scalable software and tools for the development and deployment of our AI models
  • Collaborate with researchers to integrate feedback and accelerate the team
  • Optimize applications for speed, scale and reliability

What we’re looking for:

  • Proven track record of shipping high-quality code in challenging projects
  • Exceptional software engineering skills across multiple languages (we use Python, Typescript, Go, Rust, and C )
  • Experience with scalable software design and implementation
  • Ability to navigate ambiguity and adapt to changing priorities in a fast-paced environment

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

Compensation, benefits and perks (US):

  • Annual salary range: $100K - $1M
  • 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 dependants
  • Unlimited paid time off
  • Option to work in-person in SF or remotely
  • Visa sponsorship and relocation stipend to bring you to SF
  • A small, fast-paced, highly focused team
