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 and Europe, and we’re continuing to grow internationally. What unites us is relentless focus, fast execution, and a deep care for software craftsmanship.
Over the last year we’ve made a lot of progress producing quality content and messaging, and we’re now looking for someone to help us distribute it to the right audiences.
As Demand Generation Lead, you’ll own how future customers find and first experience Linear, across web, search, and paid media. Your objective is to build awareness and pipeline, particularly with larger companies.
It’s likely this role will operate and feel a little different to what you might find elsewhere. Linear is a very brand forward company, so there will be scenarios where we have to turn down seemingly great opportunities to protect perception. We’re unlikely to ever use retargeting pixels and gated content, for example.
We’ve got a basic demand motion in place today but we’ve barely scratched the surface. As the first demand generation hire, you’ll own the strategy and lead on delivering it.
The marketing team is small but has an outsized impact, and we intend to keep it that way. You’ll have real influence on how Linear grows, and you’ll be encouraged to take ownership and deploy tooling and practices that help you be more effective.
Important: 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.
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:
Important: Linear is an equal opportunity employer. We do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic under applicable law.

Linear is Fully Remote and hires within two regions: North America and Europe. Roles are posted for one region or the other, and you can work from anywhere within the region you are hired in. Some senior roles note teams that also span Australia.
Linear brings people together in person on purpose. There is an annual all-company offsite (Copenhagen in 2025, with past gatherings in Mexico City, Helsinki, and Lisbon), plus smaller team meetups and occasional travel. Optional co-working hubs give people a place to work alongside teammates when they want one, with no requirement to use them.
Every employee gets equity. Linear offers employee-friendly terms: a 10-year post-termination exercise window, early exercise in the US, and equity refreshers over time. Alongside its Series C, the company ran a tender offer so current and former teammates could sell a portion of their vested options at the same $1.25B valuation as investors.
Linear offers at least five weeks of paid vacation a year plus local statutory holidays, and four months of paid parental leave. After four years, employees get a paid month off, and another every two years after that. These recharge sabbaticals are part of the company's Linear Infinity program.
Linear uses work trials as part of hiring, giving candidates a chance to do real work with the team rather than relying on interviews alone. The company hires deliberately and has kept its team small on purpose.
Linear suits people who care about craft and quality. The team describes itself as makers at heart with a shared respect for uninterrupted focus, and its principles emphasize shipping early, knowing what good looks like, and building things that last. If you value autonomy, taste, and written clarity over process and playbooks, it is a strong match.
