About the role

Millions of people use Notion every day, and we’re growing quickly. The Infrastructure Security team’s mission is to build a secure-by-default foundation across Notion’s technical stacks—architecting systems that make the secure path the easy path. As an IC4 on this team, you’ll own meaningful infrastructure security problems end-to-end: from identifying risk, to designing pragmatic controls, to shipping secure defaults that scale across engineering.

What they're looking for

  • Security architecture and expertise : you’ve built and maintained systems to secure cloud architectures, ranging from secrets management to Identity and Access Management solutions
  • Backend/infrastructure development : you’ve written and shipped production-grade code, and can contribute to the codebase and architecture to raise the bar on secure systems design
  • Working in production : you can debug systems in production and continuously improve components with minimal disruption
  • Pragmatic, risk-based prioritization : you model threats, balance trade-offs, and focus security investments where they drive the most business impact
  • Empathetic communication : you communicate nuanced ideas clearly in writing and in real time, in disagreements, you engage thoughtfully and look for the right compromise
