We are Magma, the first all-in-one collaboration platform for digital creativity. Think of us as a blend of Google Docs, Photoshop, Discord, and Roblox, designed for a new era of authentic, real-time creation. As the global appetite for art surges, both the video game and content-production industries struggle with the increasing demand for visuals, shifting to remote work, and managing distributed talent. Magma addresses these challenges by placing community and collaboration at the heart of the creative process, empowering everyone—from individual artists to AAA studios—to produce and manage art more efficiently.

Already trusted by 3 million registered users (with 70,000 using the platform daily), Magma streamlines artistic workflows through advanced design and project management tools. We’re venture-backed and led by an experienced founding team dedicated to building a business that unlocks creativity for all. Our approach has even earned us the moniker of a potential “Instagram killer,” thanks to our focus on real-time, visible collaboration that merges creation, community, and discovery in ways traditional platforms never could.

Who We’re Looking For

We won’t sugarcoat it: this role is demanding—but incredibly rewarding. If you love turning raw data into impactful insights, thrive on full-stack data responsibilities, and want to own your projects from concept to production, this role is for you. You should feel comfortable writing code daily, watching impact of latest feature releases, building ETL pipelines, diving deep into statistical analysis, and communicating with stakeholders in a fast-paced startup setting. When the opportunity arises, bring your business perspective and propose those $1M+ opportunities that propel product innovation and drive significant growth.

Who We’re Not Looking For

• Siloed Specialists: If you want to focus only on one narrow aspect of data (e.g., modeling without any data engineering or vice versa), this may not be the right fit.

• Discomfort with Ambiguity: We move quickly and adapt often. Those looking for rigid structures and minimal change might feel out of place.

• Minimal Collaboration: We need someone who proactively partners with product, engineering, and leadership. If you prefer to work alone and never engage stakeholders, you won’t thrive here.

• Pure Academic Researchers: While strong technical expertise is a must, we’re looking for practical, results-driven approaches rather than purely theoretical.

Tech Stack

• Databases: MongoDB, PostgreSQL, Clickhouse

• Visualization & BI: Metabase, Posthog, Google Analytics

• Languages:

  • Core analytics: Python/SQL

  • Supporting (nice-to-have or willing to learn): C++ and Typescript
