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 Nike, Airbnb, Slack, Samsung 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.

About The Role:

Notion can be used for writing personal notes, making collaborative documents, publishing a wiki, for managing projects and more; it's used by individual consumers, small teams, and large enterprises alike.

We’re looking for a senior product manager to lead and scale our Public API team. As a critical member of the Product team, you will drive the strategy and execution of Notion's API offerings, enabling developers and enterprises to build powerful integrations that enhance the capabilities of Notion for millions of users. You’ll collaborate with cross-functional teams, including Engineering and Go-to-market (GTM) teams, to ensure that our APIs are not only robust and reliable but also delightful to use.

What You'll Achieve:

  • Own the API Roadmap: You’ll define the vision and strategy for Notion's Public API, prioritizing features and enhancements based on developer needs, market trends, and business objectives.
  • Customer-Centric Development: You’ll engage deeply with our developer community, partners, and enterprise customers to understand their needs, pain points, and aspirations. Use these insights to inform product decisions and priorities.
  • Champion Developer Experience: You'll advocate for a seamless, delightful developer experience—from onboarding through integration and ongoing support.

Skills You'll Need to Bring:

  • 5+ years of product management experience
  • You have a track record of working on API and developer products
  • You collaborate well cross-functionally—especially with design, engineering and developer relations
  • You have experience using quantitative (e.g., metrics, analytics) and qualitative data (e.g., research, user feedback) to inform product prioritization and decision-making
  • You have built, or are committed to building, diverse and inclusive product teams.
  • You are the champion of the customer, while remaining laser focused on delivering significant business impact

Nice to Haves:

  • You have a Computer Science background or equivalent technical experience.
  • You’ve built something on the Notion API
  • You've worked in a startup and care a lot about shaping (and working in) a high-impact, collaborative organization.
  • You've heard of computing pioneers like Ada Lovelace, Douglas Engelbart, Alan Kay, and others—and understand why we're big fans of their work.

Our customers come from all walks of life and so do we. We hire great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, not just because it's the right thing to do, but because it makes our company stronger. If you share our values and our enthusiasm for small businesses, you will find a home at Notion.
