Role
Who you are
- 7+ years configuring and maintaining corporate infrastructure end to end: network and security, configuration management, virtualization (IaaS/AWS), and on‑prem hardware supporting global office locations
- You're comfortable at the command line on macOS, Windows, and Linux, and you design and build MDF/IDF infrastructure with care for power, cooling, and monitoring
- You're network‑hardware savvy with Aruba, Juniper, Cisco, Meraki, Palo Alto, and other major vendors, and have a strong foundation in protocols, models, and core networking concepts
- You design and implement AV backends for large‑scale internal company events
- You keep systems healthy with monitoring tools like NMS, ELK Stack, MRTG, Nagios, Splunk, Cacti, and Syslog
- You script and automate in Python, PowerShell, or similar, and bring identity and access expertise across Directory Services (AD, LDAP), RADIUS, SAML, PKI, and PAM
- You're curious, collaborative, and detail‑oriented, with strong communication skills and a pragmatic security mindset
- You build productive partnerships with ISPs and technology vendors, and you're AI‑curious and eager to use new tools to boost productivity and decision‑making
- 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
What the job involves
- We're looking for a seasoned Corporate Infrastructure Engineer to architect and maintain the physical and network systems that keep Notion running across our global offices
- You'll shape the infrastructure backbone of a company transforming how the world works—designing, supporting, and evolving the IT systems that power collaboration for millions
- Based in San Francisco, you'll build and deliver solutions with real autonomy on a team that trusts your expertise. Partner with world‑class engineers across Security, IT Operations, and IT Systems Engineering to directly influence our global IT strategy
- Work hands‑on with cutting‑edge technologies, mentor the broader IT team, and see your impact every day as resilient network architecture and optimized operations enable hundreds to do their best work
- If complex systems, collaborative problem‑solving, and building world‑class infrastructure motivate you, let's talk
- Help design through deploy our corporate IT stack - from network services and storage to virtualization and MDF/IDF operations - so everything just works for our teammates
- Keep systems humming day to day: install, configure, monitor, document, and automate across our IT infrastructure
- Coach and mentor members of the IT support team so everyone can do their best work
- Jump in on tactical escalations and bring issues to a clear, timely resolution
- Continually review our environment and propose pragmatic improvements that boost performance, reliability, and scalability as we grow globally
- Share knowledge with the broader IT team and run trainings to help the whole org level up
- Support office buildouts and expansions, including occasional travel to our global locations
- Nurture vendor relationships with ISPs, data circuit providers, low‑voltage cablers, and security systems integrators
- Handle hands‑on hardware work as needed, including installing and maintaining equipment, and safely lifting up to 50lbs to heights of up to 6ft
Our take
Managing busy workflows using fragmented systems can be a headache for both individuals and businesses. Notion aims to combat this problem by enabling users to work from one central hub, customizing their workflows to suit their exact needs. This includes managing files, scheduling tasks, saving documents, writing to-do-lists, and setting reminders.
The company counts enterprise companies such as McDonald’s, The Wall Street Journal, Verizon, Samsung, and IBM as its customers. In spite of economic uncertainty, Notion reached a $2B valuation in 2020, helped by record signups as more people were forced to work from home. Its value has since risen to over 5 times this value, an impressive reflection of its success.
The company has also made a number of strategic acquisitions that, coupled with its enormous market value and enviable customer list, have Notion well-placed to continue dominating the market. However, with a growing wave of competitors emerging, including offerings like Microsoft Loop, Notion will need to keep innovating and evolving to maintain its edge and stay ahead in an increasingly crowded market.
