Whoever filled that is a right joker. What a crappy job. First I would take a sharp edge and trim the inner edge where the doorframe and wall meet. Then get to sanding and it might come closer to being flat. You might even be able to get the outer corner to run almost in a straight line. Then get some external undercoat/primer, paint it on with a slight overlap of not the old paint, then white outer coat; do you know what kind of paint that is by any chance?

Sadly no. Really hoping it's the most common type - whatever that works out to be.

Well, once you are done sanding and have cleaned the dust off, don’t forget to tape the doorframe and floor with some masking tape, leave it there once primer dries, then put your topcoat on, might want to “feather” the edge between new paint and old paint so there’s no hard line between the two, wait for that to be touch dry and THEN remove the masking tape. Much easier than trying to clean up paint drips and spatters after the fact.
