ABOUT THE ROLE

With the recent launch of our developer platform, Notion is entering a new phase. We're now looking for our first Developer Advocate who can empower and grow our global community of developers with us. As a Developer Advocate, you will define how builders discover and ship on Notion’s platform. Your role will be the critical bridge between Notion’s teams and the developer community, helping us understand their needs and extend the capabilities of our product in new and unprecedented ways.

What You'll Achieve

- Become the voice of the developer community at Notion. You’ll create, manage and support a strong relationship between developers and our Product and Engineering teams to help them build faster and prioritize what matters most.
- Build and publish engaging and helpful content - demos, guides, API reference material and blog posts. Collaborate with our Storytelling team to amplify community-created content through @NotionDevs on X and other channels.
- Own Notion’s strategy and presence at hackathons, developer conferences and events to drive activation among top AI builders.
- Partner closely with Engineering, Product and Business Development teams on API improvements that impact our developer community - understanding the scope, assessing impact and guiding the developer community through the changes.
- Own the strategy and execution for our key developer channels - Notion Devs Slack, Notion Devs X and developer docs to meet the community’s needs and keep them engaged and updated on our roadmap and releases.
- Partner with marketing and sales teams across Notion to help them understand how developer features can be used and provide value for our customers.

SKILLS YOU'LL NEED TO BRING

- You have a solid technical background and a strong presence in the developer community.
- You're an exceptional communicator, adept at interfacing with individual developers and large audiences alike.
- You're ready to build from 0 to 1 and own a program that will grow as a pillar of the company.
- You're creative and have an interest in business opportunities that the Developer Platform opens and accelerates for Notion.
- You're experienced at rallying internal stakeholders and project managing on a deadline. In particular, you've partnered with engineering teams to deliver anticipated products.
- 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

- You have been a developer advocate, an engineer or a PM at a company where API is critical to growth.
