Software Engineer, Native macOS Development

About Us :

We're on a mission to make it possible for every person, team, and company to be able to tailor their software to solve any problem and take on any challenge. Computers may be our most powerful tools, but most of us can't build or modify the software we use on them every day. At Notion, we want to change this with focus, design, and craft.

We've been working on this together since 2016, and have customers like OpenAI, Toyota, Figma, Ramp, and thousands more on this journey with us. Today, we're growing fast and excited for new teammates to join us who are the best at what they do. We're passionate about building a company as diverse and creative as the millions of people Notion reaches worldwide.

Notion is an in person company, and currently requires its employees to come to the office for two Anchor Days (Mondays & Thursdays) and requests that employees spend the majority of their week in the office (including a third day).

About The Role :

Notion.app is the Electron-based frame through which many of our most active and engaged users experience Notion. We have several Electron core maintainers on our team to drive cross-platform features and would love to add platform-specific expertise - someone who has experience building native macOS applications and is excited about building applications that honor and meet the possibilities of the operating system. This will help us serve our macOS users, including many Notinos, better.

What You'll Achieve :

• You’ll define the roadmap for macOS features in Notion.
• You’ll leverage macOS native audio to allow users to create content on Desktop.
• We value building high quality apps. You'll improve the performance, reliability, and polish of our macOS app. You will also get to work with the web stack to improve the end-to-end experience - for instance by building native Node.js addons in C++, Rust, or Objective-C to allow our web code to hook directly into native UIs and APIs.
• You'll help build and improve internal tools with simplicity and productivity in mind.
• If you’re interested, you have the chance to contribute to or become a maintainer of one of the most-used open source projects - Electron, a cross-platform C++ and Objective-C framework. Electron’s Objective-C powers 1Password, Figma, Slack, Visual Studio Code, and countless other apps on macOS. Help us make them better!

Skills You'll Need to Bring :
