Job Description:
About Us: Notion helps you build beautiful tools for your life’s
work. In today's world of endless apps and tabs, Notion provides
one place for teams to get everything done, seamlessly connecting
docs, notes, projects, calendar, and email—with AI built in to find
answers and automate work. Millions of users, from individuals to
large organizations like Toyota, Figma, and OpenAI, love Notion for
its flexibility and choose it because it helps them save time and
money. In-person collaboration is essential to Notion's culture. We
require all team members to work from our offices on Mondays,
Tuesdays, and Thursdays, our designated Anchor Days. Certain teams
or positions may require additional in-office workdays. About the
Role: Mobile devices have reshaped personal computing—the power of
a desktop now fits in our pockets. By giving everyone the building
blocks to create their own tools, we'll solve more problems
wherever we go. A delightful, intuitive mobile experience: that's
our guiding light, and we need Android engineers to make it a
reality. What You'll Achieve: The Mobile Platform team’s mission is
to deliver a best-in-class mobile app by making it easy to build
high-quality, performant features. You'll help mobile product teams
by developing services, frameworks, and shared UI components.
You’ll set the direction for how features should be built on
Android. We value building high quality apps. You'll improve the
performance, reliability, and polish of our Android app. You’ll
drive developer velocity through improvements to our builds
systems, mobile CI/CD, and the release process. Skills You'll Need
to Bring: Thoughtful problem-solving: For you, problem-solving
starts with a clear and accurate understanding of the context. You
can decompose tricky problems and work towards a clean solution, by
yourself or with teammates. You're comfortable asking for help when
you get stuck. Ability to ship quality apps at scale: You can work
with a team to build and maintain quality Android apps for a large
audience. You understand the practices put in place to scale an
Android engineering team. Not ideological about technology: To you,
technologies and programming languages are about tradeoffs. You may
be opinionated, but you're not ideological and can learn new
technologies as you go. Empathetic communication: 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. Team player: For you, work isn't a solo
endeavor. You enjoy collaborating cross-functionally to accomplish
shared goals, and you care about learning, growing, and helping
others to do the same. 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. Ideally, you are comfortable using tools
like Claude Code or Codex. Nice to Haves: You're proficient with
the technologies we rely on: Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, Coroutines,
Circuit, and open to occasionally working in Rust or Typescript.
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. 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 enthusiastic about making software
toolmaking ubiquitous, we want to hear from you. Notion is proud to
