Magical is redefining how work gets done.

Our agentic AI platform brings "AI employees" into the workplace to take over the repetitive, soul-crushing workflows that slow teams down. The result: organizations move faster, with sharper focus, and deliver better outcomes where it matters most, like improving patient care.

The shift to agentic work is inevitable, and we’re leading it. We've scaled from $0 -> $1MM+ ARR in 3 months with our agentic product, and we're looking for engineers to help us reach $10MM+ ARR in the next 9 months. As a founding engineer, you won’t just be writing code, you’ll be shaping the playbook for the future of work alongside a small, relentless team pushing the edge of what’s possible with AI.

We're backed by the investors behind OpenAI, Anthropic, Huggingface, and Notion, including Greylock, Coatue, and Lightspeed. The runway is long. The ambition is high. And the market is wide open.

  • Have a strong bias towards action, a willingness to do whatever it takes, and embody show > tell

  • Value taking ownership and responsibility for your projects and systems.

  • Studied Computer Science (or related field), or dropped out to build stuff

  • Located in Toronto or willing to relocate

What we offer

  • A chance to be an early team member at a fast-growing, ambitious company
