Developer who loves writing

PostHog helps engineers build better products. We are a single platform to analyze, test, observe, and deploy new features. We give engineers product & web analytics, session replay, feature flags, experiments, 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 and had the most successful B2B software launch on HackerNews since 2012 - with a product that was just 4 weeks old. Since then, more than 70,000 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 default alive, averaging 10% monthly revenue growth, with >$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.

About our Marketing team:

• We have loads of awesome stuff to write content about.

• We value depth over volume - if you want to spend 2 weeks writing a really in-depth guide, go for it!

• You'll have tons of autonomy to decide what to write about, but also the support of our Marketing team and paid ads agency to give you insights.

• We have a super-engaged developer community which you'll be creating content for.

We're only just getting started - our Marketing team is just 5 people but has an outsized impact.

• Creating top-of-funnel content, such as blog posts and tutorials, that attract new developers to PostHog.

• Improving our documentation and producing guides that solve common problems for existing users.

• Working with our marketing, product, and engineering teams to turn new features into engaging and timely content ideas.

• Contributing useful and opinionated articles to our Product for Engineers newsletter, which has over 15,000 subscribers.

• Analyzing how your content performs (using PostHog!) and deciding how to adjust our content strategy accordingly.

Here is some recent content the team has written:

• The magic of small engineering teams

• How we got our first 1,000 users

• An engineer’s guide to talking to users

• How to query Supabase data in PostHog

• How to A/B test LLM models and prompts

• You've written engaging content for developers.

• Software development experience, though not necessarily in a formal role. Building apps in your free time or having done a bootcamp counts. 

• Excellent writing, research, and communication skills.

• Original, interesting takes on topics developers care about.

• A genuine love of writing.

Nice to have

• You have another string to your bow - maybe you've dabbled in video content creation or social media
