Developer Relations

At Linear, we're building the product development system for teams and agents. AI is fundamentally changing how software gets built, and we’re shaping the tools this new era requires.

Founded in 2019, Linear has become the platform of choice for more than 40,000 companies (including OpenAI, Coinbase, and Ramp) to plan, build, and ship their products. Today, our team is distributed across North America, Europe, and Australia, and we’re continuing to grow internationally. What unites us is relentless focus, fast execution, and a deep care for software craftsmanship.

Linear is becoming a much broader product than people realize. With agents, mobile workflows, and new modalities, there’s a growing gap between what Linear can do and what people think it can do. This role exists to close that gap.

We’re looking for someone who will live inside the product, discover what’s possible, and show the world. That means figuring out the most compelling use cases for Linear’s AI agent, demonstrating real workflows that teams can adopt, and getting those stories out through whatever format works best, whether that’s a tweet, a video, a blog post, or a live demo at a conference. The goal is to help people understand what they can actually do with Linear and make that feel concrete and exciting.

Think of it as a product-obsessed marketer who is genuinely technical and knows how to communicate with depth.

Location & work mode

Linear is a remote-first company, with optional co-working offices in San Francisco, New York, and London. This role is open to candidates based in the US and Europe. You can work from anywhere within those regions. We value deep focus and async collaboration, with intentional moments to connect in person through team off-sites, optional co-working, and occasional travel.

What you’ll do

• Deeply understand Linear’s product, especially our AI agent and newer capabilities, and continuously discover productive, real-world use cases that teams would care about
• Create content that demonstrates those use cases, whether that’s short-form social, blog posts, video walkthroughs, or live demos. Format follows the story, not the other way around
• Build relationships with engineering and product-focused creators and collaborate on content that feels authentic rather than sponsored
• Work with our video team to produce technical product content that comes across with genuine depth
• Partner with support, sales, and product on developer-facing documentation and educational content
• Stay plugged into the conversations happening on X, in newsletters, and at events, and make sure Linear has a voice in the ones that matter

What we’re looking for

• Someone technical. You get code, understand how software gets built, and can talk about it credibly
• Deep product intuition. You’re the kind of person who picks up a tool and immediately starts exploring what’s possible. You think in workflows and use cases rather than features
• Comfortable on camera and on stage. You can demo a product, record a walkthrough, or speak at a conference without it feeling forced.
• Twitter/X smart. You know how to use the platform, you understand what’s interesting to the people we’re trying to reach, and you can participate in the conversation with credibility
• Curious and self-directed. You’re already finding the next interesting thing to talk about on your own, already following the right people and noticing the opportunities
• Able to create video content end to end. You should be able to script, record, and edit a product walkthrough or demo without needing to hand it off to someone else

What we offer

We're a small, focused team that cares deeply about the quality of our work and the people we do it with. Here's what you can expect:

• Competitive salary and equity
• Employee-friendly equity terms including early exercise in the US and extended exercise windows
• Daily meal and coffee stipend on every workday
• Paid co-working space or desk
• Health coverage (based on country requirements)
• 5 weeks paid vacation, plus local statutory holidays
• 4 months paid parental leave
• Paid month off after 4 years & every 2 years thereafter
• Regular team events and off-sites
• Remote-first with no required commute
