Designing remote work at Linear - Linear

When we began back in 2019, building remote-first was a design choice. We believed builders deserve freedom: freedom of place, freedom of rhythm, freedom of deep focus. And we believed quality doesn’t come automatically, it needs to be intentional. That’s why we built Linear around trust and autonomy.

Please bring in a developer from your team, I will assign a simple task, e.g. for embedded dev: Write down the C or assembly code of a sorting algorithm for a linked list. No standard library, no AI assist. Just write it down.

I guess the majority of development companies would #fail.

I want to ask you: If I do not get a chance to pursue a college degree next year, what freelance options do I have, remote or otherwise, with which i can get started based on my qualifications (an associate-degree equivalent diploma in computer engineering, but no bachelors) and work and academic experience (as written below), without holding a college degree. I am willing to study for certifications if that's what I'll need to get started as an entry-level freelancer.

I have 4 months of experience working as a content writer for a tech agency. I have some experience as a secondary grade tutor, and am currently working as a spoken english tutor by myself, alongside working with a dyslexic kid's literacy remedials (helping him learn to read and write) using structured literacy, since the past almost 6 months. I am fluent in english/hindi (writing and speaking). I do have a decent amount of experience learning web development fundamentals (HTML+CSS+JS) as I completed a course in February this year, but it has been a while since I last coded anything as my health has been volatile the past 6 years.

I work best when I'm able to create structure in my work, and if I can work with some explicit laid-out logic. I'm not a very creative person due to cognitive constraints, but I'm willing to learn and push myself on that front. I'm open to working online or offline, both. I'm willing to spend some time upskilling myself or working for a certification/qualification (in case my college plan doesn't work out).

I am also more than willing to learn a technology/subject/topic to a point where I can teach it to someone else in a clear format, as teaching is something I enjoy and am a bit good at.

I should note though that I have GAD, which has led me to experience a lot of ups and downs in my cognitive abilities as well.

Any and all suggestions on what my next roadmap can look like is genuinely welcomed and appreciated, thanks!

Apple spent a decade trying to develop their own car with Project Titan. It never launched, and was finally canceled in 2024, but not before the company had spent ten billion dollars on getting nowhere. In the same time frame, Tesla launched the Model X, Model 3, Model Y, and the Cybertruck. But maybe that's just because manufacturing ...

Multiple columns, multiple colours, confounding symbols... You're allowed to reject companies that use AI just as much as they're allowed to us AI to limit their choices.

Let them shoot themselves in the foot. They don't deserve you. And you deserve to work for a company of real people who value other unique people.

If you don't know anything about the company you'd be working for, or the product you'd be making and the interviewer asks "Do you have any questions for me?" what they're asking is "Are you interested in learning about us or what we do?"

You can and should of course ask about time commitment, pay, etc. but if you *only* ask about that and you don't ask about what they do, what their tech stack is, the size/composition of the team, or anything else about the company or product, then you're sending a very clear signal that this isn't important to you at all, and while all companies know that the relationship is transactional, they typically want someone who cares at least a little bit about the work.

For the longest time, #Linkedin has maintained its hegemony in professional networking by doing the absolutely the bare minimum. I would argue the Linkedin of 2018 is the same as the Linkedin of 2021 with barely any innovation to show for.
