Lin Ling
Lin is Co-founder and CEO of Modus. Before Modus, she was a VP BizOps at HashiCorp and helped scale from 100 to 2500 employees to IPO (rang the bell in NY). Prior to that, she implemented ERP systems at five Fortune 500 companies as a Deloitte Consultant. The clunky nature of these tools led her to appreciate the flexibility of spreadsheets but also the craft in modern software. Lin received her Bachelor's in Econ, Comp Sci, and Math at NYU Stern.
Modus helps companies hire and retain only the people they need instead of becoming bloated messes. Modus connects your HRIS, ATS, and analyzes extensive data across your organization so leaders can detect, inspect, and correct their workforce plans - without relying on spreadsheets or complex systems. Lin experienced these challenges firsthand as a VP BizOps at HashiCorp, scaling from 100 employees to IPO, while Chris and Amar faced similar issues scaling 40+ person teams as a fractional CTO. They’re motivated by the belief that companies should have the least number of employees possible.
