Developer Relations at Linear — living inside the product to show the world what its AI agent can actually do

Linear is hiring a technical, camera-comfortable Developer Relations person to discover compelling real-world use cases for Linear's AI agent and turn them into content — tweets, videos, blog posts, live demos — that closes the gap between what Linear can do and what people think it can do. The interview weighs genuine technical fluency and product intuition against end-to-end content creation and X/Twitter credibility, not marketing-only chops.
