Notion Expert Jobs (NOW HIRING)

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 feels 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, humanity, and building things that last - not just shipping the next feature, but setting a standard for how modern teams (with humans and agents working together) think and execute.
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:
You're joining Notion's People Analytics & Operations team as part of an 18-month rotational program -- the group that builds the insights engine powering every people decision Notion makes.
We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you've built. If you've ever rebuilt a broken process because it was bothering you, used AI to do something you couldn't have done alone, or found yourself reading about labor economics for fun -- you're the person we're looking for.
Over 18 months, you'll rotate across people operations, people analytics, and compensation/benefits. Every rotation is real work with real ownership. On the analytics side, you'll build dashboards that land in exec review, write SQL that powers headcount models, and prototype AI-assisted workflows that help our team move faster. On the operations side, you'll run the HR engine -- managing employee lifecycle transactions in Workday, owning onboarding and offboarding coordination end-to-end, triaging and resolving employee requests, and keeping our people data clean and audit-ready. You'll be paired with a senior operator who will push your craft and raise your bar.
We want someone who's hungry, high-agency, and passionate about leveraging AI to build the future of work. Not "I've used ChatGPT" native -- "I use AI every day to move faster and build smarter" native. And you don't just use Notion; you build in it.
At the end of 18 months, you'll declare a focus area and move into a permanent team within the People org -- whether that's People Analytics, People Operations, Total Rewards, or staying broad as a high-impact People generalist. We're intentionally building the next generation of the People team from within.
What You'll Achieve:

• Build the insights engine: Write SQL that powers our headcount, attrition, and hiring funnel dashboards. Transform raw people data from Workday and Snowflake into crisp analyses that drive real decisions. For example, you might build a model that identifies where we're losing great candidates and propose a process fix.
• Run the HR operations engine: You'll learn how the ops side of the house actually works by doing it. That means executing employee lifecycle transactions in Workday (new hires, transfers, terminations), coordinating onboarding and offboarding end-to-end, triaging and resolving employee requests, supporting compliance and audit readiness, and keeping headcount and requisition data clean. For example, you might own the full ops flow for an onboarding cohort and surface process gaps that shorten time-to-productivity.
• Tell the story in data: Take a messy people question and produce a clean narrative: numbers to insights to recommended decision. You'll own the analytical arc end-to-end -- from pulling the data to presenting it to senior leadership.
• Prototype AI-assisted workflows: Identify manual, repetitive work across HR operations and replace it with something smarter -- automated onboarding task routing, AI-assisted ticket triage, offboarding checklists that run themselves, compliance reminders that don't require a human to send. You'll have real latitude to experiment and ship things that outlive your rotation.
• Build and own our Notion workspace: You'll be the People team's Notion expert. Pages, databases, dashboards, views -- you'll build operating systems the whole team relies on. From day one, you'll be the person others come to when they want to do something in Notion they didn't know was possible.

Skills You'll Need to Bring:

• SQL is your native language: You don't reach for SQL when you have to; you reach for it when you want to think. You can write queries that join, filter, aggregate, and transform data. You debug the wrong answer and figure out exactly why it's wrong.
• Quantitatively sharp: You think in numbers. You've studied business, economics, statistics, or mathematics and it showed up in your work. Analytical storytelling -- connecting numbers to insights to decisions -- is a skill you've already started building.
• High agency, high urgency: You don't wait for perfect instructions. When something's broken, you fix it. When there's ambiguity, you make a call. We look for slope over intercept -- we care more about what you've built and how fast you learn than where you trained.
• AI-fluent: You use AI tools every day as a real multiplier, not a novelty. You know when Claude drafts it faster, when a formula is cleaner, and when you need to write the code yourself. Come ready to show us how you've used AI to do something you couldn't have done alone.
• Notion power user: You live in Notion. You know the difference between a filtered view and a linked database. You get a little excited when you find a cleaner way to structure something. From day one, you'll be one of the most fluent Notion users on the People team.

Nice to Haves:

• Some exposure to Python -- enough to know what a loop is and when to reach for one
• Familiarity with Workday, Snowflake, or similar HRIS or data warehouse tools
• Prior experience in a business operations, finance, or sales operations context (internships count)

For some roles, AI fluency is a core requirement - when that's the case, we'll make it explicit in the qualifications. People who thrive here don't treat AI as a novelty.
