Notion is hiring a Software Engineer, Developer Platform, based in San Francisco or New York City. This is a full-time, hybrid role in the Engineering department. Notion is the collaborative AI workspace where teams and agents think together — one place where knowledge, projects, meetings and AI tools live side by side, so work is faster, clearer and less fragmented. Millions of individuals, small teams and large companies run their work on Notion.

About the role
As a Developer Platform engineer, you will directly contribute to the foundational pieces that make Notion extensible and connected. You will build tools, APIs and platform experiences that help customers connect Notion to the world — bringing their apps, data and workflows into one workspace. Your work will make it easier for developers, admins and builders to create reliable integrations and automations on top of Notion. You will be a key player in building the robust technical foundation that allows Notion to achieve the connected workspace vision. Your work will include both internal platform contributions that accelerate other Notion engineering teams and end-user-facing functionality that enables toolmaking ubiquity. You will be presented with challenging technical problems, as Notion’s product needs are complex. You will play a key role in identifying and executing against technical investments that ensure the long-term quality, reliability and performance of Notion’s platform as we scale.

This role can be based in either San Francisco or New York City. Notion works from its offices on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (Anchor Days) because the team does its best thinking and building together in person.

What you’ll achieve

• Work with a team of engineers and cross-functional partners across product, design, data science and user research to define a product strategy and drive execution through conception, research, implementation and maintenance
• Evolve Developer Platform capabilities across APIs, MCP tools and integration infrastructure that help customers automate workflows, customize Notion and connect Notion to the tools and data they use every day
• Contribute to the overall performance, reliability and robustness of the Notion product, ensuring it scales elegantly across many dimensions
• Partner with engineering leaders to identify and execute against high-leverage technical investments that ensure the long-term flexibility and sustainability of core systems

Skills you’ll need to bring

• 2+ years of experience 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
• Curious and willing to adopt AI tools to work smarter and deliver better results (you don’t need to be an AI expert)

Nice to have: experience building developer tools like APIs and SDKs; experience driving teams toward shared goals and balancing business priorities with individuals’ strengths, areas of interest and career development goals; familiarity with AI/agent tooling, evals or LLM-driven product experiences.

Compensation
Notion is committed to providing highly competitive cash compensation, equity and benefits. For roles based in San Francisco or New York City, the estimated base salary range is $179,000 – $200,000 per year.
