Designer (Web & Brand)

At Linear, we are on a mission to bring magic back to software. To empower product teams to do their best work, we are building an issue tracking and project management tool that combines UI elegance with world-class performance. Founded in 2019, Linear has become the platform of choice for 20,000+ companies to plan and build their products.

Linear was set up as a fully remote company from the start. Today, our small but mighty team is distributed across North America and Europe. What unites us is relentless focus, fast execution, and our passion for software craftsmanship. We are all makers at heart and care deeply about the quality of our work.

We're looking for a Designer with strong visual taste to help drive our creative initiatives across web and brand. When it comes to design, we’re looking to work with experienced people who can pick up any problem and solve it. For us, it’s both how it works and how it looks.

We expect a broad set of design skills and the ability to create high-quality designs, interactions, and prototypes.
