We have used PostHog's web analytics ourselves and genuinely loved the experience. The product is fast, thoughtfully designed, and surprisingly fun to use. PostHog is unlike most SaaS companies: their entire handbook is public, their codebase is open source, and they share revenue figures and board meeting notes with every team member. The company has raised $194M from investors, including Stripe, GV, and Y Combinator, reached a $1.4 billion valuation in 2025, and is targeting $100M in ARR by the end of 2026. They pay generously, benchmarking engineering salaries at the 90th percentile of San Francisco rates adjusted by location, with a fully public compensation calculator so you know your salary before you even apply. Employees on Glassdoor consistently highlight the flexible spending, genuine remote-first culture, and regular offsites, alongside a $1,500 quarterly budget for meeting up with colleagues anywhere in the world. Many team members are former founders, and the company is structured around small, autonomous teams that own their products end-to-end. If you are an engineer or builder who thrives on autonomy, ships fast, and wants to work on a product used by nearly 200,000 teams, PostHog is a rare opportunity.

• Receive generous, transparent compensation and significant equity. • Enjoy unlimited vacation with a minimum requirement. • Benefit from two meeting-free days per week. • Receive a home office budget. • Access coworking credit. • Get private health, dental, and vision insurance. • Access a training budget. • Enjoy access to the Hedge House. • Benefit from carbon offsetting. • Receive pension and 401k contributions. • Participate in company offsites. • Get paid $1,000 for the PostHog SuperDay interview.

PostHog is building the operating system for folks who build software. Starting with open-source product analytics and launching out of Y Combinator's W20 cohort, PostHog has shipped more than a dozen products including a built-in data warehouse, customer data platform, and PostHog AI. More than 100,000 companies have installed PostHog, driven mostly by word-of-mouth. The company has raised more than $100m from top investors and is growing revenue 10% MoM on average. PostHog believes product management is broken and that engineers can fix it.
