About PostHog

PostHog empowers developers to build successful products through a suite of tools for analysis, testing, observation, and feature deployment. Our offerings include product and web analytics, session replay, feature flags, A/B testing, a CDP, SQL access, and a data warehouse, with more features on the horizon.

Founded as an open-source project during Y Combinator's W20, PostHog achieved the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 with a product that was only four weeks old. Since then, over 110,000 companies have installed the platform. We have experienced significant success with paid upgrades, raised $27 million from top-tier investors, and driven strong product-led growth, with 97% originating from word-of-mouth.

We are growing rapidly yet sustainably, maintaining a "default alive" status with an average of 10% monthly revenue growth and over $20 million in ARR. Our focus remains on building an exceptional product for end-users, hiring a select group of talented individuals, and achieving outstanding growth.

What We Value

• Open Source: Building a vast community around a free-for-life product is central to PostHog's strategy.
• Transparency: We strive to be the most transparent company ever. Our public handbook details our roadmap, compensation practices, strategy, and funding. We also conduct regular team-wide feedback sessions.
• Autonomous Impact: We empower individuals to choose their next tasks based on potential customer impact, rather than assigning specific duties.
• Solving Big Problems: We are focused on rapid iteration and haven't yet built our defining feature.

Who We're Looking For

We are scaling rapidly and require two exceptional individuals to support our growing teams as we onboard numerous new hires – one based in the US and one in Europe.

You will be instrumental in guiding new hires from acceptance to becoming successful long-term team members. This includes managing contracts, payroll, probation periods with team leads, and continuously improving our onboarding process based on feedback.

The People & Ops team's mission is to eliminate distractions for the rest of the business. You will play a crucial role in achieving this by ensuring processes are effortless, not bureaucratic, leveraging smart automation to scale efficiently.

You are someone who genuinely thrives on enabling others' success and finds satisfaction in the behind-the-scenes work that allows brilliant people to focus on their core strengths. As a regional expert, you will ensure smooth operations, enabling our teams to perform at their best during rapid transatlantic growth.

• Administering contracts, compensation, and benefits.
• Continuously automating internal processes.
• Ensuring compliance with all legal requirements, including staying updated on legislation and state tax registrations (US).
