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 50,000 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.

Over the past years, Linear has experienced incredible organic growth and has become an instrumental tool for many of the world’s best product teams. We believe customer support should always feel like an extension of that experience. As a Product Support Specialist at Linear, you’ll contribute to the future of our product by surfacing customer feedback and insights, contributing to our technical documentation, and engaging a technical customer community via social channels.

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 within U.S. and Canada Eastern or Central Time. You can work from anywhere within those time zones. We value deep focus and async collaboration, with intentional moments to connect in person through team off-sites, optional co-working, and occasional travel.

  • Experience troubleshooting technical issues, including APIs and integration setups. Ability to reproduce bugs with Linear and our integrations in various environments (different browsers, Windows, Mac, Mobile).

  • Familiarity with SQL, Javascript, APIs, and GitHub is a plus. If you don’t have direct experience in these areas, curiosity to learn more is desirable as well. Please note that this is not a product engineering role.

  • Based in U.S. or Canada Eastern or Central Time only.
