Technical Recruiter
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 Technical Recruiter at Magic, you’ll be at the forefront of building the team that builds AGI. You’ll partner closely with our executives and technical teams to identify, engage, attract and hire exceptional technical talent across AI research, and engineering. You’ll own candidates throughout the entire process and ensure Magic attracts and closes the brightest minds in industry.
What you might work on:
Partner with executives and engineering leadership to understand current and future hiring needs across the entire company.
Partner with our sourcing team to design and execute strategic sourcing plans that map global talent markets, drive top-of-funnel activity, and cultivate long-term relationships with exceptional candidates.
Own the candidate journey from sourcing handoff through offer stage, ensuring a high touch and excellent experience.
Provide market intelligence, funnel metrics, and competitive insights to inform hiring plans and influence decisions.
What we’re looking for:
Strong technical fluency: you’ve either worked in a technical role yourself or can confidently assess technical talent. Some of our team used to be engineers and we code solutions when needed
Familiarity with AI, machine learning, and ideally large language models. We read all the latest research papers and attend the top AI-conferences on behalf of Magic
Strong communication skills and the ability to tell Magic’s story in an inspiring way
Proven ability to manage multiple roles simultaneously and adapt to shifting priorities
Experience in a fast-paced startup or high-growth environment
Nice to have:
Previous experience recruiting for AI, ML, and niche technical roles
Network within the AI or ML community
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: $150K - $260K (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
