About Us:

We're on a mission to make it possible for every person, team, and company to be able to tailor their software to solve any problem and take on any challenge. Computers may be our most powerful tools, but most of us can't build or modify the software we use on them every day. At Notion, we want to change this with focus, design, and craft.

We've been working on this together since 2016, and have customers like Pixar, Mitsubishi, Figma, Plaid, Match Group, and thousands more on this journey with us. Today, we're growing fast and excited for new teammates to join us who are the best at what they do. We're passionate about building a company as diverse and creative as the millions of people Notion reaches worldwide.

Notion is an in-person company, and currently requires its employees to come to the office for two Anchor Days (Mondays & Thursdays) and requests that employees spend the majority of their week in the office (including a third day).

About The Role:

As part of Notion's growth foundation team, our goal is to develop product features and platforms that increase Notion's value for our growing user community. We utilize data, experimentation, creativity, and third-party systems to introduce more growth levers and enhance the user experience. As a team member, you'll design, develop, and maintain innovative systems that deliver best-in-class messaging experiences to our users. You will gather accurate data and uncover valuable insights about our users. By integrating this data seamlessly across various parts of the Notion ecosystem, we can provide personalized experiences and tailored recommendations. Join us on this exciting journey of transformation!

What You'll Achieve:

  • Work cross-functionally with partners from Product Growth, Design, Data Science, Growth Marketing and other organizations to deliver short- and long-term impact
  • Formulate the roadmap and develop product features, tools, and infrastructure that democratize user knowledge, integrate with third-party tools, and enhance the product experience for our users.
  • Understand the Notion customer to identify key touchpoints in their journey and gain insights that will drive top of funnel user acquisition, feature adoption and user engagement.
  • Plan, shape, and implement new messaging platforms to enhance the product experience and make it more engaging and personalized for our users.

Skills You'll Need to Bring:

  • Work across all levels of the stack: With over 5 years of software engineering experience, you are a full-stack engineer capable of building and maintaining high-quality user interfaces, as well as designing integrated systems in the backend.
  • Team player: Work is not a solo endeavor for you. You enjoy and excel in communication and collaboration, working in cross-functional environments and establishing the right overarching solution for a company's needs. You care about learning, growing, and helping others do the same.
  • Pragmatism and impact-orientation: You value business impact and prioritize projects accordingly. You are skilled at managing a long backlog of important projects and collaborating with others to maintain a balance between speed, quality, and long-term goals.
  • Putting users first: You think critically about the implications of what you're building, and how it shapes real people's lives. You understand that reach comes with responsibility for our impact—good and bad.

Nice to Haves:

  • You're proficient with any part of our technology stack: React, TypeScript, Node.js, and Postgres.
  • You have experience with personalization, recommendation, or data systems is a plus.
  • Worked at a fast-growing start-up, a SaaS company or are eager to contribute in such an environment (being a current Notion user would also be great!)

An Insider's view of Notion

What's something quirky about your company?

The most unique thing I've experienced here is a series called "Life Stories" where a Notino shares a condensed version of their life in 45 minutes. It's an opportunity to hear about people's backgrounds and the experiences that defined them allows us to work together in a way that highlights people's strengths and unique perspectives.

Software Engineer

How do you collaborate with other teams in the company?

I find that engineers do a lot more product thinking here. At Notion, UX, PM, and engineers work closely together to craft the right user experience together. We ask ourselves: are we actually solving the user need? Can we solve this more efficiently? I love that engineers are empowered to give feedback and propose alternate solutions.

Software Engineer

What’s the vibe like in the office?

Working with a team that is so smart and humble at the same time creates a unique energy and I love exchanging thoughts with my colleagues. Everybody is passionate about our mission and lifts each other up.

What are Notion Perks + Benefits

Notion Benefits Overview

We work to make sure our employees have what they need to succeed.

We offer 100% health insurance coverage for employees and dependents. This includes medical, dental, and vision premiums. You and your dependents will have access to a provider that can create a personalized treatment plan such as digital Cognitive Behavioral Therapy programs, coaching, therapy, navigation support, medication management, and EAP services. Our fertility benefit gives you employer-sponsored funds you can use to pay for fertility treatments and family-forming services. Notion makes it easy to save money for retirement. There’s also employer matching!

We want you to take time off to rest and rejuvenate. Notion offers unlimited paid vacation as well as 10+ observed holidays by country.

We believe employees should have access to paid time off for pivotal life events that may fall outside of traditional leaves. Full-time employees can take up to 10 days of paid leave in a rolling 6-month period for bereavement, pregnancy loss, abortion procedures, recovery, and related travel, legal proceedings (e.g., custody hearings, legal components of gender affirmation, proceedings concerning incidents of sexual violence or sexual harassment), or bereavement following the death of a pet.

We offer Notinos a monthly stipend to use towards services that fit their personal needs. This gives you the opportunity to choose your own adventure and use the funds toward things that matter the most to you.

We offer biological, adoptive, and foster parents paid time off to spend quality time with family.

We offer a generous monthly subsidy for your commute.
