Engineering Manager, Core Product

Monograph
San Francisco, CA Full Time
POSTED ON 1/16/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 4/13/2025

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 Pixar, Mitsubishi, Figma, Plaid, Match Group, 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.

Maximise your chances of a successful application to this job by ensuring your CV and skills are a good match.

Notion is an in-person company, and currently requires its employees to come to the office for two Anchor Days (Mondays & Thursdays) and requests that employees spend the majority of their week in the office (including a third day).

About The Role :

You'll lead a team of engineers responsible for improving the core experience of Notion as our customers expand their usage to hundreds of users and data points. You will work with your peers and listen to our customers to develop a strategy that makes software toolmaking intuitive and scalable for all. You will drive execution in your team to deliver high-quality products such as Databases, Forms and Charts to Notion users. As an engineering leader at Notion, you will also contribute to up-leveling Notion's engineering organization as a whole.

What You'll Achieve :

  • Build and manage a diverse and inclusive team of engineers working on core parts of Notion's product, creating a healthy environment that embodies Notion's values.
  • Recruit, coach, and develop engineers; ensure they are regularly receiving feedback and making progress on personal and professional goals.
  • Collaborate closely with cross-functional peers to set the direction of your team and develop your product roadmap.
  • Facilitate planning—the prioritization, sequencing, and staffing of work—for your team.
  • Own execution in your team to develop a steady cadence of delivering value to Notion users.
  • Maintain a high-quality bar for everything your team ships.
  • Work with the rest of the Engineering team to shape how Notion's engineering organization operates, helping develop technical practices, recruiting and onboarding strategies, planning and prioritization processes, and more.

Skills You'll Need to Bring :

  • 4 years of experience managing engineering teams with a record of shipping high-quality products in a fast-paced environment.
  • Commitment to building diverse and inclusive teams.
  • Passion for improving user experience with a background in building and launching high-quality user-facing products.
  • Ability to create collaborative, empowering, supportive, and challenging team environments.
  • Value for empathetic and direct communication, enabling effective feedback and cross-functional alignment.
  • Sufficiently deep background in product and technology to ask the right questions and consider different tradeoffs.
  • High tolerance for ambiguity and change; enjoy jumping into areas needing attention and learning as you go.
  • Bonus Points :

  • Experience working on products that allow users to create, modify, and visualize large volumes of structured data in different formats (e.g., tables, kanban boards, charts).
  • Experience managing engineering teams at startups during periods of rapid growth and organizational change.
  • Experience rolling out engineering and management practices and processes—e.g., code review, performance reviews—where they didn't exist before.
  • Familiarity with computing pioneers like Ada Lovelace, Douglas Engelbart, Alan Kay, and others.
  • We hire talented and passionate people from a variety of backgrounds because we want our global employee base to represent the wide diversity of our customers. If you’re excited about a role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every bullet point listed in the job description, we still encourage you to apply. If you’re a builder at heart, share our company values, and are enthusiastic about making software toolmaking ubiquitous, we want to hear from you.
