About PostHog
We help developers build successful products by giving them a suite of products to analyze, test, observe, and deploy new features. We currently offer product and web analytics, session replay, feature flags, A/B testing, a CDP, SQL access, and a data warehouse… and there’s plenty more to come.
PostHog was created as an open-source project during Y Combinator's W20 cohort. We had the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 with a product that was just 4 weeks old. Since then, more than 110,000 companies have installed the platform. We've had huge success with our paid upgrades, raised $27m from some of the world's top investors, and have shown strong product-led growth – 97% driven by word of mouth.
We're growing quickly, but sustainably. We're also default alive, averaging 10% monthly revenue growth and with more than $10m ARR. We're staying focused on building an awesome product for end users, hiring a handful of exceptional team members, and seeing fantastic growth as a result.
What we value
We are open source - building a huge community around a free-for-life product is key to PostHog's strategy.
We aim to become the most transparent company, ever. In order to enable teams to make great decisions, we share as much information as we can. In our public handbook everyone can read about our roadmap, how we pay (or even let go of) people, what our strategy is, and who we have raised money from. We also have regular team-wide feedback sessions, where we share honest feedback with each other.
Working autonomously and maximizing impact - we don’t tell anyone what to do. Everyone chooses what to work on next based on what is going to have the biggest impact on our customers.
Solve big problems - we haven't built our defining feature yet. We are all about acting fast and iterating.
Who we’re looking for
Look at Coua. She's great. 90% of the amazing people that work at PostHog today are here because of her.
But now we're growing faster, and frankly we need more Coua at PostHog to help us go from 80 people today to double that number by the end of the year. One talent partner can't do it alone. But two can!
Oh, and you'll need to be in a European timezone please, so we have good global coverage.
What you’ll be doing
Run full-cycle recruitment for roles across several of our small teams, both engineering and GTM
Deliver an exceptional candidate experience by making sure we close the feedback loop promptly and ensuring a seamless hiring process
Manage expectations for internal hiring teams and exec members to maintain hiring standards and velocity
Figuring out ways to get more great candidates into our hiring funnel (aka 'employer brand')
What you won’t be doing
❌ Working on other people-y things - this is not a role for someone who wants to move sideways into people ops
❌ Cold sourcing candidates on LinkedIn - we are 100% inbound, so if you're awesome at outbound, PostHog probably isn't the right fit
