No matter the platform it's our job to deliver clean, consistent, useful world class Notes experiences.

The combined power of the Office suite and the latest Windows and Apple technologies presents developers with exceptional opportunities for ownership, autonomy and professional growth. The team works primarily in C++ but other languages such as Objective-C, Swift, JavaScript, and TypeScript are also used. This is a great team to have direct impact on millions of OneNote users.
