Remote Compliance & Trust Lead

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. At Linear, we hold ourselves to a commitment to quality .

To us, security is an essential part of that quality — not a layer that we add later, but something we build in from the start. We have a strong foundation (SOC 2 Type II, ISO 27001, and a security program we're proud of) but as Linear evolves our product and scales into enterprise, there's meaningful work ahead: keeping our compliance program current as we grow and ship fast, deepening the trust we’ve established with customers, and maturing our approach to privacy and risk. As Compliance you can explain a control design to a skeptical customer, draft a crisp policy, and write a risk summary leadership will actually read Autonomy-oriented — you're comfortable operating with significant independence, setting your own priorities, and knowing when to loop in leadership, without needing to be managed closely Pragmatic over procedural — you optimize for reducing real risk, not checking boxes, and you know the difference Tools
