About the role
What You'll Achieve
- Build out Notion’s next fully supported language (alongside TypeScript), with a clear operating model teams trust.
- Own the success of Go as a platform at Notion, while helping the Developer Experience team tackle whatever engineering productivity bottlenecks matter most.
- Establish safe, reliable frameworks and patterns for running Go services at scale (deployment, observability, reliability, and generally “how we do production”).
- Enable service architecture, maintenance, and ownership through easy, AI-enabled tooling that reduces toil and raises quality.
- Ship a concrete “Go platform v1” that unblocks at least two production teams operating services at real world scale by the 90th day.
Skills You'll Need to Bring
- Over 10 years of hands-on software development experience, thriving in fast-paced and dynamic environments.
- Deep Go expertise, including experience operating production Go services at scale.
- Track record of defining, driving, and owning a platform that other teams adopt: libraries, golden paths, migration playbooks, and guardrails that make systems easier to run.
- Strong systems judgment: make trade-offs explicit (speed vs safety, abstraction vs flexibility) and bring teams along without turning it into a committee.
- Curiosity and breadth to jump onto the highest-leverage developer experience problems as needed.
- Drive to make developers’ lives better: strong interest in keeping engineers in their flow state, and thinking outside of the box to find ways to pave a better golden path for engineers to follow.
- Pragmatic and business-oriented: care about business impact, not just going after cool stuff, and prioritize projects accordingly.
- Curious and willing to adopt AI tools to work smarter and deliver better results.
Nice to Haves
- Experience using AI-enabled developer tooling to increase leverage (scaffolding, maintenance workflows, reliability checks, and reducing repetitive work through better automation).
- Experience operating production-scale Kubernetes clusters.
- Familiarity with TypeScript, especially in ways to keep it running smoothly in a large codebase.
