Position Overview

Help us to increase the number of successful products in the world! 🌍

PostHog is looking for a Product Engineer to build integrations with the platforms developers love using. You will be creating native experiences that make adopting PostHog feel obvious, whether someone discovers us through the Vercel marketplace, sets us up via a GitHub Action, or configures us through their favorite deployment platform.

About PostHog

PostHog equips every developer to 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, experiments, a CDP, SQL access, a data warehouse, and LLM observability – 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 100,000 companies have installed the platform. We've had huge success with our paid upgrades, raised bags of money from some of the world's top investors, and have extremely 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 $20m 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

  • Open Source: Building a huge community around a free-for-life product is key to PostHog's strategy.
  • Transparency: We aim to become the most transparent company, ever. 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.
  • Autonomy and 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.
  • Solving Big Problems: We haven't built our defining feature yet. We are all about acting fast, innovating, and iterating.

What You Will Be Doing

  • You will build integrations from scratch with developer platforms.

Ideal Candidate Profile

This job is ideal for someone who:

  • Can work well with external teams and APIs. You'll be "hopping on a quick call" with engineers from platforms like Vercel, GitHub, and AWS. You'll need to navigate their APIs, understand their constraints and figure out the best way to integrate with them.
  • Gets excited about developer experience. The best integrations feel like magic – they just work, and have docs that don't make you want to throw your laptop out the window.
  • Has built a few integrations themselves, cursed at some OAuth flows, and waited with excitement for the 6th round of marketplace reviews to come through.
  • Loves finding the latest developer toy to play with, and figuring out which ones will stick around.

Company Information

  • Location: We are full-remote and globally distributed! Our current team is distributed between GMT-8 and GMT+2, so we currently only hire in these timezones.
  • Manager: Joshua Snyder
  • Compensation: Please check our compensation calculator.
  • Hiring Process: Read more about our interview process and how we think about Diversity & Inclusion.

Interview Process

  1. 20min call with one of our Talent Partners.
  2. 60min with Joshua (technical interview).
  3. 15min call with CEO James.
  4. PostHog SuperDay (paid day of work).
