We're building one place where your 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. Notinos (our employees) are customer zero in bringing this future of work to life. We care about craft, building things that last, and the belief that great work is still fundamentally human. Our goal isn’t to ship the next feature. Each and every team of Notinos is working to set the standard for how humans work together in the AI era. From building a business’s system of record to making and managing AI agents to automating away the busy work, we care deeply about giving our customers more time for their life’s work. This internship will take place from May 24 - August 13 or June 14 - September 3 (based on your summer schedule) and you will need to be able to work out of our SF or NY office during this time. Please only apply to the internship role that best fits your interest / experience. Multiple applications may result in delayed review of your application. What You'll Achieve: - Ship frontend features to real users. Build and launch production UI on Notion’s web client, from marketplace and seller surfaces to permissions and sharing controls, partnering with designers, PMs, and senior engineers. - Strengthen the foundation other teams build on. Contribute to shared components, product primitives, and tooling so engineers across Notion can build faster and more consistently. - Make Notion performant, scalable, and accessible. Use real metrics to find and fix problems in load time, responsiveness, and accessibility on the web client. - Help people discover, install, and use products from Notion and its ecosystem, and control who can see and do what. Work on distribution surfaces for creators, consultants, and partners, and on interfaces for access across pages, databases, teams, groups, and guests. - Own a scoped project from design to launch. Measure its impact and present what you learned to your team and partners. Qualifications: - Pursuing a bachelor's or master’s degree in computer science, engineering, or another related field. Must graduate before Summer 2028. - Working toward proficiency in React / TypeScript - Previous internship experience. - You find large challenges exciting and enjoy discovering problems as much as solving them. - You are able to problem-solve and adapt to changing priorities in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. This internship will take place from May 24 - August 13 or June 14 - September 3 (based on your summer schedule) and you will need to be able to work out of our SF or NY office during this time. Skills You’ll Need To Bring: - Thoughtful problem-solving: For you, problem-solving starts with a clear and accurate understanding of the context. You can decompose tricky problems and work towards a clean solution, by yourself or with teammates. You're comfortable asking for help when you get stuck. - Put 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. - Not ideological about technology: To you, technologies and programming languages are about tradeoffs. You may be opinionated, but you're not ideological and can learn new technologies as you go. - Empathetic communication: You communicate nuanced ideas clearly, whether you're explaining technical decisions in writing or brainstorming in real time. In disagreements, you engage thoughtfully with other perspectives and compromise when needed. - Team player: For you, work isn't a solo endeavor. You enjoy collaborating cross-functionally to accomplish shared goals, and you care about learning, growing, and helping others to do the same. - AI enthusiast: You have built or prototyped features with AI technologies (LLMs, Embeddings, ML) and are interested in learning more. Nice to Haves: - You have expertise with specific technologies that are part of our stack, including TypeScript and React. - 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. - You have interests outside of technology, such as in art, history, or social sciences. Notion is committed to providing highly competitive cash compensation, equity, and benefits. The compensation offered for this role will be based on multiple factors such as location, the role’s scope and complexity, and the candidate’s experience and expertise, and may vary from the range provided below. For roles based in New York City, the estimated hourly range for this role is $57/hr for Bachelors and $61/hr for Master’s.

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.
