About Magic Patterns
Our mission is to let anyone build delightful software. We're a lean team where everyone contributes directly to the product.
If you’re an AI engineer, our roadmap is probably a goldmine of things you’ve always wanted to work on:
- An AI agent that thousands of users use religiously everyday
- Evals with a self-improving agent loop
- Context engineering
- Post-training on design output
The most common piece of feedback we get is "I tried a bunch of tools but your design quality output is by far the best." We want to push the limits even further.
About this role
-
Own our eval system that feeds into our self-improving agent loop
-
Push and define the limits of what AI can do in design. Today, we are state of the art, and we want to continue to push that.
-
Collaborate with the product team to bring novel solutions to improve agent quality from the perspective of our users
-
Decide what to work on to improve our AI Design agent. The list above are open problems, not assignments
This role might be a fit if you...
-
Use AI tools in your daily workflow
-
Have experience with AI models and/or have worked on an AI agent before
-
Have experience building eval systems, post-training, context engineering
-
Strong first-principles thinker that can distill complex problems
