Magic (makers of Loyalist) · New York, NY · In-office 5 days/week · $170k-$210k + equity I’m Chris, a founding engineer at Magic. You’d be taking over a lot of the infrastructure work I’ve been holding alone, so I wanted to tell you about it from my perspective. I came to Magic from Hightouch, a martech startup where I worked on data pipelines and syncing for companies across industries. I wanted to go somewhere smaller, more in person, and plugged into a real-world, NY-centric industry. At Magic, we’re supporting a legacy hospitality industry just starting to adopt serious tech, and we have customers right outside the office in Soho. Year one got us to 800 restaurants. Year two is about building for 1,000 and beyond and growing to new verticals. You’d be the one architecting that. WHAT WE’RE BUILDING Loyalist is the operating system behind how 1,000+ restaurants remember their guests. We ingest live data from ~30 third-party systems before, during, and after service (reservations, POS, reviews, private events, email, SMS, e-commerce, data warehouses) and turn it into action. We track 40 million guest profiles across our customers, hundreds of millions of historical visits…
