INTRODUCTION
Who We Are
Notion is the collaborative AI workspace where teams and agents think together. 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.
ABOUT THE ROLE
We’re rolling out Go support at production scale at Notion, and we need an owner who can make it durable. You’ll lead the work to turn Go into a fully supported, well-operated platform: reliable and scalable service patterns, paved paths for our tooling stack, and the guardrails that make building in Go feel fast and safe. This role matters because our next wave of AI and agent-driven products will require backend services where Node won’t always be the right fit, and the platform decisions we make now will compound for years. While Go is the core focus, this role sits within Developer Experience and will regularly tackle other high-leverage engineering productivity challenges, developer experience ranging from AI-assisted development workflows and remote agent environments to CI performance, deployments, and reliability tooling. This role can be based in either San Francisco or New York City. We work from our offices on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (our Anchor Days) because we do our best thinking and building together in person. We’re looking for someone who’s excited to work alongside the team during those days.
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. Go is the primary focus today, but there is opportunity to shape areas such as AI-assisted development, remote agent environments, CI performance, deployments, and developer workflows.
- 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.
- By your 90th day, you’ll have shipped a concrete “Go platform v1” that unblocks at least two production teams operating services at real world scale.
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: you can 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.
- A drive to make developers’ lives better: you have a strong interest in keeping engineers in their flow state, and especially in thinking outside of the box to find ways to pave a better golden path for engineers to follow.
- Pragmatic and business-oriented: You care about business impact, not just going after cool stuff, and prioritize projects accordingly. You may be opinionated, but you're not ideological and can learn new technologies as you go.
- You don’t need to be an AI expert, but you’re 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.
COMPENSATION
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 San Francisco or New York City, the estimated base salary range for this role is $299,000–$352,000 per year.
A Note on AI
You don’t need deep AI expertise for every role, but we do expect every Notino to be intellectually curious, drawn to tinkering and discovery, and excited to use AI as a real collaborator in their work. 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. They use it to think better, and make their work easier for others to build on.
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY & ACCOMMODATIONS
We hire talented people from a wide range of backgrounds. If you’re excited about this role but don’t meet every bullet, we still encourage you to apply. Notion is an equal opportunity employer and does not discriminate on the basis of any legally protected characteristic. Consistent with applicable law, we will consider for employment qualified applicants with arrest and conviction records.

Frame your degree field for specialty occupation
E-3 visa approval depends on your degree directly supporting the DevEx role. A computer science or software engineering degree maps cleanly. If yours is in a related field like information systems, document the connection between your coursework and developer tooling responsibilities before applications go out.
Target employers with active LCA filing history
DevEx roles sit at the intersection of engineering and product, so not every employer understands the specialty occupation requirement. Focus on companies that have filed Labor Condition Applications for software roles before, they already know how the DOL process works.
Clarify your role's technical scope in job discussions
Developer Experience positions vary widely in seniority and function. Make clear early whether your work involves SDK development, internal tooling, or developer advocacy, because your visa petition needs to describe duties that satisfy the specialty occupation standard, not a generalist product role.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service for your LCA and paperwork
Once you have an offer, your employer files the LCA with DOL before your consulate appointment. Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle your LCA and visa paperwork end-to-end so nothing stalls between offer acceptance and your start date.
Prepare for nonimmigrant intent questions at the consulate
E-3 is a nonimmigrant visa, so consular officers assess your ties to Australia and intent to return. DevEx roles are in high demand globally, come with a clear, honest account of your plans that addresses the officer's standard line of questioning.
Confirm your employer's E-Verify status before accepting an offer
E-3 holders are employment-authorized through their visa, and employers are required to complete I-9 verification. Ask your prospective employer whether they use E-Verify, some companies in tech infrastructure and government contracting require it, which affects your onboarding timeline.
E-3 Visa Developer Experience: Frequently Asked Questions
Where can I find Developer Experience jobs that sponsor the E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 visa sponsorship. You can filter by job title, location, and sponsorship history to surface Developer Experience openings at employers who have navigated the E-3 process before, rather than having to educate every recruiter you talk to.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Developer Experience role qualify as a specialty occupation for the E-3?
It can, but the classification depends on how the role is defined. Positions focused on SDK engineering, developer tooling, or technical platform work typically qualify when a bachelor's degree in computer science or software engineering is a genuine requirement. Roles blended heavily with community management or content creation face more scrutiny at the DOL LCA stage and during the visa interview.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Developer Experience roles?
The E-3 has no annual lottery and no cap that would leave you waiting a year for a slot, which makes it far more predictable for planning a start date with an employer. H-1B registration opens once a year and selection is random. For Australian professionals in DevEx, the E-3 is the practical path, you can apply any time of year once you have a job offer and a certified LCA.
Can I change employers or switch to a different DevEx role while on the E-3?
Yes, but each new employer must file a fresh LCA and you'll need a new visa stamp if you travel internationally after the change. Changing roles within the same company may also require an amended LCA if the duties or wage level shift materially. You can start working for the new employer once the LCA is certified and you have a valid E-3 in your passport reflecting the new position.
