Software Engineer - Developer Productivity

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.

About Us: AI needs a new infrastructure layer. We're building it at Modal. Every era of computing brought new workloads that previous infrastructure couldn't support: mainframes, databases, and the cloud. Each time, the company that rebuilt the layer underneath defined the decade. AI is no different, except it touches everything instead of one slice, and the window to build the layer underneath it is open right now. Our customers include category-defining companies like Lovable , Ramp , Cognition, DoorDash, and Suno. They rely on Modal for instant GPU access, sub-second container starts, and native storage, so it's simple to serve low-latency inference, fine-tune models, and access production-ready sandboxes at scale. We recently raised a $355M Series C at a $4.65B valuation, led by General Catalyst and Redpoint Ventures. We've crossed $300M+ ARR and grown fivefold since September. Our team includes creators of popular open-source projects (e.g., Seaborn , Luig i ), academic researchers, international olympiad medalists, and experienced engineering and product leaders with decades of experience. The Role: We’re looking for strong engineers with experience building developer tools that users love to work with. Our ideal candidate is someone with a demonstrated drive to build beautiful interfaces that enhance developer productivity. Requirements: 5+ years of experience developing high-quality Python libraries with broad user-bases, ideally including some experience maintaining open-source software. Knowledge of advanced Python features, especially async programming. A strong product sense that manifests as a focus on developer ergonomics and productivity. A high level of customer empathy, good communication skills, and an openness to working directly with our users to help solve their problems. Ability to participate in on-call rotation and respond to production incidents. Ability to work in-person in our NYC or Stockholm office. Any of the following would be a plus:

About the Team The Astral team builds high-performance developer tools to power the future of programming, at OpenAI and beyond, including Ruff, uv, and ty. The Astral toolchain sees hundreds of millions of installs per month and powers hundreds of millions of package downloads per day for the Python ecosystem. As a team, we are building on those foundations to continue solving impactful tooling problems as programming evolves. About the Role We are looking for an experienced software engineer to build next-generation programming language tooling. If you like writing high-performance Rust, it could be a good fit; if you like thinking about the future of programming, it could also be a good fit. Strong candidates tend to have deep experience with Rust, Python, open source, compilers, or developer tools — but few candidates are deep in all of these areas, and we've hired candidates without prior Rust or Python experience. In this role, you will: Design and implement features in Astral’s existing open source projects (Ruff, uv, ty, and python-build-standalone, and more). Support Astral’s open source projects as a maintainer, triaging user issues, reviewing pull requests, and participating in community discussions. Evolve the Astral toolchain to accelerate development velocity at OpenAI. Build entirely new tools, in entirely different programming ecosystems, to power the future of agentic software development. Your background might look something like: 5+ years of professional engineering experience, excluding internships, in relevant engineering roles. High agency and comfort operating in a fast-moving environment, with strong ownership of security, reliability, and operational excellence. Strong developer empathy and communication skills, including experience maintaining open source projects. Exceptional systems engineering fundamentals and a track record of leading complex projects from ambiguous problem statements through to user impact. Proficiency in one or more s

About the Team API Frontiers turns OpenAI’s frontier models into production APIs that developers can use to build reliable products and agents. We own the core path connecting models to developers through the Responses API, with a focus on safety, reliability, and speed. Working closely with Research, Safety, Codex, and other API teams, we bring new model capabilities into production and improve them through developer feedback. About the Role We are looking for a backend software engineer to build and operate the services behind the Responses API. You will shape API behavior, bring new capabilities from research into production, and make long-running agent workflows dependable and fast. The work combines distributed systems engineering with product judgment: designing useful developer interfaces, managing staged rollouts, and following production issues through to durable fixes. In this role, you will: Design, build, and operate APIs and backend services that bring frontier model capabilities to developers. Partner with Research, Safety, Codex, and API teams to define API behavior and deliver safe, staged launches. Build API capabilities for agent workflows, including task delegation, context sharing, and parallel execution. Strengthen long-running request reliability across timeouts, cancellation, streaming, and background execution. Improve request-processing performance and tail latency through profiling, efficient systems code, and persistent connections. Turn developer feedback and production failures into better observability, diagnostics, and lasting product improvements. Your background might look something like: 5+ years of experience building and operating backend services or developer-facing APIs in production. Strong software engineering fundamentals, with practical knowledge of distributed systems, concurrency, and asynchronous execution. Ability to diagnose production failures and performance bottlenecks using observability data and profiling. Product
