Summary

This role is ideal for a mid-level sales professional with at least 3 years of quota-carrying experience who thrives in a high-growth startup environment. You should have a track record of selling to technical audiences (engineers, product managers, or founders) and a genuine appreciation for high-quality software craftsmanship. Linear is a remote-first company offering a "product-led" sales environment, meaning you’ll be layering professional outreach onto a product that already has massive organic pull. Standout perks include five weeks of paid vacation, four months of parental leave, and employee-friendly equity terms. This position provides the flexibility of full-time remote work anywhere in North America alongside a culture that prioritizes deep focus and async collaboration. **You might be a good fit if you...** * Have experience selling developer tools or technical collaboration software. * Enthusiastically dive into product demos and enjoy becoming a product expert. * Prefer a "quality over quantity" approach to sales and building stakeholder relationships. * Are comfortable in a fast-paced environment where you act as a bridge between customers and the product team.

Job Description

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 25,000 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 past few years, Linear has experienced incredible organic growth and has become an instrumental tool for many of the world’s best product teams. We are now layering a product-led sales motion on top of our existing self-serve business to accelerate our ambitions further and bring the magic of Linear to even more and larger companies. As an Account Executive at Linear, you’ll contribute to the future of our product and help high-impact companies build better software.

Location & work mode

Linear is a remote-first company. This role is open to candidates based in North America. You can work from anywhere within this region. 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
