Magic

We’re the Engineering Team at Magic.
We get it. You love to build, you love to ship, and you love to see your code make a real difference, fast. We offer an environment where you can do just that. We’re not about endless meetings or red tape. We’re about empowering talented engineers to own projects, move quickly, and deliver results.

We’re a Y Combinator (2015) alum with strong venture backing (including Sequoia Capital) and over $30M in funding. We’re building a world-class engineering team, currently at 30 strong and growing. We value impact, autonomy, and speed. We operate fully remote.
Tech stack: JavaScript with TypeScript, React, Next.js, leveraging PostgreSQL with Supabase, MongoDB for our databases while also using Cypress for our testing needs. We also deploy serverless projects on AWS.
About Magic
Magic provides thoroughly vetted, cost-effective virtual assistants, to help scale key business functions for small- and medium-sized businesses.
Our company came out of Y Combinator in 2015. We’ve grown to 1000+ virtual assistants, with strong venture backing (including Sequoia Capital) and over $30M in funding to date. We’ve got 16 engineers across the world, adding more engineers this year. We are fully remote across worldwide time zones, working asynchronously with very few meetings.
Workplace satisfaction and code quality are important to us. We expect you to contribute to mentoring, code reviews, and improvements to our processes and infrastructure. For mentoring, you’ll be in good company; our team members are authors of technical books, leaders of open source projects, and instructors from coding camps. We care about being humble, kind, and helpful.
The basics
  • Fully remote across Asia, Europe, and US time zones (we have no physical office and are staying 100% remote with or without pandemics)
  • Engineers self-manage, but must be available during core hours of 9am–6pm US Pacific Time for real-time collaboration and communication.
  • Encourage work time devoted to open source or civic engagement projects
  • Have a strong learning culture
  • Actively explore, assess, and adopt new technologies
