About PostHog
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.
What you’ll be doing
Creating top-of-funnel product-focused content marketing such as blog posts and tutorials that attract new developers to PostHog.
Working with our marketing, product, and engineering teams to turn new features into innovative and timely content ideas. You'll manage content production from start to finish.
Growing and maintaining our content schedule around user personas and segments.
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:
Requirements
You've written engaging top-of-funnel content for developers.
You'll need to have experience doing software development, but this doesn't need to have been in a formal role.
You have excellent writing, research, and communication skills.
You come up with interesting and timely content ideas - you're not just interested in cranking out the same stuff as everyone else.
Nice to have
You have another string to your bow - maybe you've dabbled in video content creation or social media
