About The Position

We're looking for an AI Product Engineer to join the team responsible for Notion's database block- which powers views like tables, galleries, charts, forms, and more. As a strategic partner in shaping Notion's AI vision, you'll help define and build cutting-edge AI-powered features into this core product experience, leveraging LLMs, embeddings, and other AI technologies to make Notion's databases more intelligent and capable.

Requirements

• Expertise building and prototyping: You have experience building AI products using LLMs, embeddings and other ML technologies. You understand how parts of a system fit together from UI to data model, are familiar with relational databases like Postgres or MySQL, and have experience building products from ground up.
• Shipping quality user interfaces: You partner closely with product and design to craft beautiful user experiences for large audiences, leveraging web technologies like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a modern UI framework like React.
• Problem-solving: You approach problems holistically, starting with a clear and accurate understanding of the context. You think critically about the implications of what you're building and how it will impact real people's lives. You can navigate ambiguity flawlessly, decompose complex problems into clean solutions, while also balancing the business impact of what you're building.
• Empathetic communication and collaboration: 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. You enjoy collaborating with both fellow engineers and cross-functional partners. You are a lifelong learner and invest in both your own growth and the growth, learning, and development of your teammates.
• Impact-orientation and user focus: You care about business impact and prioritize projects accordingly. You understand the balance between craft, speed, and the bottom line. 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. Work isn't a solo endeavor for you, and you enjoy collaborating cross-functionally to accomplish shared goals.

Nice To Haves

• You have experience driving teams toward shared goals and can balance business priorities with individuals' strengths, areas of interest, and career development goals.
• 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.
