Job title: Technical Program Manager, Performance & Scale
Company: Notion Labs
Job description:
About Us:
At Notion, we believe that software should be as flexible and inventive as the people using it. Our mission since 2016 has been to empower every individual, team, and organization to customize their software to tackle any challenge that comes their way. While computers are remarkable tools, the ability to build or modify the software we rely on remains out of reach for many. We’re passionate about changing this narrative by infusing our products with creativity, thoughtful design, and technical excellence.
We’re proud to have journeyed alongside innovative brands like Pixar, Mitsubishi, Figma, Plaid, and Match Group, and we’re on the lookout for new team members who excel in their fields. Our growth is fueled by a commitment to diversity and creativity, reflecting the rich variety of the millions of users we serve around the globe.
At Notion, we value in-person collaboration and currently ask our team members to be in the office two Anchor Days a week (Mondays and Thursdays), along with spending time here on a third day to foster interaction and teamwork.
About The Role:
We’re excited to invite a passionate Technical Program Manager (TPM) to help shape the future of our products and infrastructure. As one of the founding members of our TPM organization, you’ll be at the forefront of enhancing performance, scalability, and reliability for our ever-growing user community of over 100 million users worldwide. In this pivotal role, you’ll team up with our senior engineering and product leaders to drive essential programs that touch every corner of our business.

- Collaborate closely with senior leaders to develop and champion Notion’s inaugural performance and scalability program, ensuring we efficiently meet our users’ needs.
- Blend long-term vision with immediate action by taking ownership of project delivery, prioritizing tasks, establishing success metrics, and keeping communication clear amongst stakeholders.
- Use your technical know-how to identify and navigate complex infrastructure challenges alongside engineers and key decision-makers.
- Keep a pulse on project progress, proactively flagging and addressing potential issues to keep the momentum going.
- Cultivate strong relationships across departments, ensuring that our team’s resources align with the broader goals of the company.
What You’ll Bring to the Table:
- 8+ years of experience in technical program management within a tech company or a similar role, with a track record of delivering tangible results.
- A knack for tackling challenging technical problems and transforming incomplete or conflicting information into actionable plans.
- Proven experience in successfully delivering technology programs or products, with a solid understanding of user needs, requirement gathering, and scope definition.
- Excellent communication skills, with a history of effectively collaborating with technical teams to develop global systems and solutions.
- A Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a relevant field, or equivalent practical experience.
Bonus Points:
- Experience leading performance and scalability initiatives would be a definite plus!
