Software Engineering Intern, Frontend (Summer 2027)

About the role

WHO WE ARE

Notion is the collaborative AI workspace where teams and agents think together https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vkpYpWfEK5s. We're building one place where your knowledge, projects, meetings, and AI tools live side by side, so work is faster, clearer, and less fragmented. Millions of individuals, small teams, and large companies run their work on Notion.

Notinos (our employees) are customer zero in bringing this future of work to life. We care about craft, building things that last, and the belief that great work is still fundamentally human. Our goal isn’t to ship the next feature. Each and every team of Notinos is working to set the standard for how humans work together in the AI era. From building a business’s system of record to making and managing AI agents to automating away the busy work, we care deeply about giving our customers more time for their life’s work.

This internship will take place from May 24 - August 13 or June 14 - September 3 (based on your summer schedule) and you will need to be able to work out of our NY office during this time.

ABOUT THE ROLE

IN THIS ROLE, YOU COULD:

- Build and optimize common web patterns that front-end engineers can use to create features

- Build tooling that allows engineers to test, debug, and profile front-end features

- Build desktop infrastructure that is scalable and has deep OS integrations.

QUALIFICATIONS:

- Pursuing a bachelor's or master’s degree in computer science, engineering, or another related field. Must graduate before Summer 2028.

- Working toward proficiency in React / TypeScript

- Previous internship experience.

- You find large challenges exciting and enjoy discovering problems as much as solving them.

- You are able to problem-solve and adapt to changing priorities in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.

This internship will take place from May 24 - August 13 or June 14 - September 3 (based on your summer schedule) and you will need to be able to work out of our NY office during this time.

SKILLS YOU’LL NEED TO BRING:

- Thoughtful problem-solving: For you, problem-solving starts with a clear and accurate understanding of the context. You can decompose tricky problems and work towards a clean solution, by yourself or with teammates. You're comfortable asking for help when you get stuck.

- Put users first: You think critically about the implications of what you're building, and how it shapes real people's lives. You understand that reach comes with responsibility for our impact—good and bad.

- Not ideological about technology: To you, technologies and programming languages are about tradeoffs. You may be opinionated, but you're not ideological and can learn new technologies as you go.
