Linden LabAbout the role
<p><strong>Our Story and Purpose</strong></p> <p><strong>Linden Lab</strong> develops platforms that empower people to create, connect, and thrive through transformative virtual experiences. Since 1999, we’ve been at the forefront of the creator economy, building durable spaces for limitless imagination, self-expression, and human connection.</p> <p>In 2003, we launched <strong>Second Life</strong>, a vibrant, user-driven virtual world that has grown into a global community with over two billion user creations and a flourishing $650 million economy. People build relationships, express themselves, create together, and, for those who choose, build real livelihoods through their creativity.</p> <p>Unlike traditional social media, Second Life fosters sustained connection between strangers and offers mobility, agency, belonging, collaboration, and shared purpose to people whose real-world circumstances may limit their options. For many, it is not just a platform, but a place to participate fully and authentically. </p> <p>At Linden Lab, the same principles that shape our communities guide how we work together. We value diverse perspectives, strengths-based leadership, and the belief that we do our best work together. You’ll join a thoughtful, mission-driven team where you can grow, contribute meaningfully, and help shape technology with real social impact. We invite you to come as you are.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Work Location</strong></p> <p>This role requires working onsite in our San Francisco office for full workdays Monday through Thursday. Employees have the flexibility to work remotely or from the office on Fridays as part of their regular five day workweek. </p> <p> </p> <p><strong>Your Mission</strong></p> <p>We’re looking for a <strong>Senior Manager, People Operations</strong> to take ownership of the day-to-day work that powers the employee experience and keep raising the bar for how we deliver it. Reporting to our Director, People & Culture, you’ll lead the operational work while helping us continually improve how it gets done.</p> <p>We believe the best People teams create leverage. Our impact isn’t measured by how much work flows through our team, but by how much easier we make it for the organization to operate effectively. We remove friction, create clarity, and build systems that help people move faster, make better decisions, and focus on high value work. </p> <p>You won’t be joining a team that needs convincing to challenge an existing process or try a new approach. We want you to question what exists, improve it, and bring us the ideas we haven’t thought of yet.</p> <p> </p> <p><strong>How You’ll Grow With Us</strong>
