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:

This role sits on the web presence team, part of the Creative Team at Notion. Web presence is responsible for our public facing website, Notion.com. We exist to create a high quality baseline for Notion’s reputation in the world and to our users. We aspire to make the site a dream to make, edit and visit. Our team is a small group of designers and engineers serving creative needs across the company and pushing forward our unique and beloved brand.

As an Interaction Designer, you’ll operate as a design leader on high-impact web initiatives: setting direction from early strategy through final execution, partnering closely with engineering and marketing stakeholders, and raising the bar for craft and systems. You’ll be trusted to define approaches, resolve ambiguity, and influence both project outcomes and how the team works.

What You'll Achieve:
  • Lead end-to-end design for major surfaces of Notion’s website, driving strategy, execution, and quality across multiple projects and timelines

  • Translate ambiguous goals into clear experience direction, information architecture, and interaction models that scale across pages and campaigns

  • Set a high craft bar: typography, layout, motion considerations, and systems-level consistency across the site

  • Build and evolve design systems, prototypes, and tooling that improve velocity and consistency for the broader web presence team

  • Write production code that powers Notion.com

  • Influence cross-functional stakeholders (Creative, Product Marketing, Comms, Brand, Product) by articulating rationale, aligning on tradeoffs, and driving decisions

  • Mentor and raise the bar for other designers through feedback, critique, and patterns that make great work repeatable

Skills You'll Need to Bring:
  • 10+ years experience in an agency or in-house environment, with demonstrated leadership on complex, high-impact work

  • Bright ideas about the future of design tools and prototyping

  • Outstanding portfolio of relevant, consumer- and/or enterprise-facing work that demonstrates impactful design strategy, craft leadership, shipped outcomes, and tough no-ship calls that had to be made.

  • Ability to thrive in ambiguity and early-stage ideas, turning nebulous prompts into clear direction, crisp execution, and measurable results

  • Strong product and systems thinking: you can define scalable patterns, maintain coherence across many patterns, and balance brand needs and business goals, usability, and performance.

  • Deep commitment to typographic excellence, and sensitivity to the most minute details

  • Excellent partnership skills: you can work hand-in-hand with engineering and cross-functional stakeholders, drive alignment, and make pragmatic tradeoffs

  • Inspiring presentation and communication skills, with a habit of proactive communication and high-quality documentation

  • Demonstrated ability to mentor others, raise the craft bar through critique, and create leverage for the team

  • 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

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.
