We’re 8+ engineers, designers, and PMs across SF and NYC. You’ll work across the stack in TypeScript, ship features that touch both the data model and the UI, and help shape where the database block goes next.
WHAT YOU'LL ACHIEVE
Design and ship new database properties and views that expand what people can model in Notion
Design permission models that hold up at the scale of our largest customers
Partner with the Agent team to grow what Notion Agent can do with databases, from tool development to eval-driven iteration
Collaborate closely with product and design on features that are ambiguous up front and require strong technical judgment to scope
Raise the bar on code review, testing, and technical design across the team
SKILLS YOU'LL NEED TO BRING
10+ years shipping production software, with a strong track record of owning features end-to-end
Fluency with TypeScript across both backend and frontend
Strong product instincts: you can take a vague problem, propose a solid technical approach, and know when to cut scope
Experience on systems where data model decisions have long-lived consequences (databases, permissions, collaborative editing, or similar)
You don’t need to be an AI expert, but you’re curious and willing to adopt AI tools to work smarter and deliver better results.
NICE TO HAVES
Experience building database, spreadsheet, or workflow tools
Background in permissions or authorization systems at scale
Familiarity with AI/agent tooling, evals, or LLM-driven product experiences

A NOTE ON AI
You don’t need deep AI expertise for every role, but we do expect every Notino to be intellectually curious, drawn to tinkering and discovery, and excited to use AI as a real collaborator in their work. For some roles, AI fluency is a core requirement — when that’s the case, we'll say so explicitly in the qualifications. People who thrive here don’t treat AI as a novelty. They use it to think better, and make their work easier for others to build on.
