About PostHog

PostHog equips every developer to 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.

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.
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 shipping fast, talking to users, and iterating.

Who we’re looking for

You'll be the person who represents PostHog IRL at all events. Our overall goal is to create a community of PostHog superfans, those who will fight for us on the startup battlefield. We want to achieve this by hosting hackathons globally where that community gathers to build real products that will hopefully lead to real startups.

You'll define what those hackathons look like, then take point in bringing the concept to life - as well as running all other IRL event marketing.

What you’ll be doing

Building an army of 500 superfans who will fight for us.
Running all our events, including worldwide hackathons where people build real products
Managing our social media, using it to get attendance
Travelling to events yourself so we have a person on the ground

What you won't be doing

❌ Planning huge conferences or being a keynote speaker

❌ Selfishly forcing PostHog into conversations with attendees

❌ Paying to get our name on a brochure for conferences

Requirements

Must be willing to travel for events.
Must have organized events for developers before (of any scale).
Must be reasonably technical. You don't have to be a software engineer, but should be able to talk confidently about all our features and converse with founders/engineers.
Confidence is a must-have, as you'll be meeting a lot of new people.

Nice to have:
