Full Job Description

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. ABOUT THE ROLE: You're joining Notion's People Analytics & Operations team as part of an 18-month rotational program -- the group that builds the insights engine powering every people decision Notion makes. We look for slope over intercept. We care less about where you trained and more about what you've built. If you've ever rebuilt a broken process because it was bothering you, used AI to do something you couldn't have done alone, or found yourself reading about labor economics for fun -- you're the person we're looking for. Over 18 months, you'll rotate across people operations, people analytics, and compensation/benefits. Every rotation is real work with real ownership. On the analytics side, you'll build dashboards that land in exec review, write SQL that powers headcount models, and prototype AI-assisted workflows that help our team move faster. On the operations side, you'll run the HR engine -- managing employee lifecycle transactions in Workday, owning onboarding and offboarding coordination end-to-end, triaging and resolving employee requests, and keeping our people data clean and a
