About PostHog
We’re equipping 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
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. We also have regular team-wide feedback sessions, where we share honest feedback with each other.
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 acting fast and iterating.
Who we’re looking for
Woah - we're hiring the very first dedicated finance person at PostHog. This is a huge deal!
Working as part of the People & Ops team, you're going to take us to the next level at PostHog as we enter the world of growth financing and, one day, the public markets. You'll help us create the foundations of how our finance functions work, while also making sure the internal processes that need to run smoothly every month do.
We already have a bunch of processes and controls in place, so you won't be starting from scratch, but we know there are a lot of ways things could be running more effectively as we scale. Your role will be to balance growth and risk appropriately, implementing just the right level of process that is appropriate at each stage of the business.
What you’ll be doing
Owning our month-end closing process - running this like clockwork
Preparing the company for our first accounts audit in 2026
Making sure we're able to answer the BIG questions - how do we spend money? How do we create budgets? How do we account for usage-based revenue across 10+ different products?
Preparing accounts for investors past, present, and future - you'll be an integral part of future funding rounds
What you won’t be doing
❌ Owning the financial model - though you'll definitely be deeply involved. This is a controls role more than an FP&A role.
Requirements
Worked in a SaaS business as a finance team member, leading on financial controls
Worked with a business that has a usage-based billing model
Been part of an accounts audit at a US topco
Nice to haves
Qualified accountant is nice but definitely not necessary!
Been part of a late-stage funded company that has scaled ($100M ARR+)
Average salary estimate
If an employer mentions a salary or salary range on their job, we display it as an "Employer Estimate". If a job has no salary data, Rise displays an estimate if available.
Are you ready to help us shape the future at PostHog as our Finance Manager? Join our fully remote team and be part of a dynamic culture where we equip developers worldwide with the tools to create successful products. As the very first dedicated finance person at PostHog, you'll be stepping into a pivotal role within our People & Ops team. We’re looking for someone who can bring their expertise in financial controls from a SaaS environment to help us scale effectively. You’ll own the month-end closing process and lay the groundwork for our first accounts audit set for 2026. Your insights will guide us in understanding our spending, budgeting, and unique revenue models across numerous products. It’s an exciting time at PostHog, especially as we prepare for growth financing and potentially even the public markets! At PostHog, we're committed to transparency, autonomy, and solving big problems. We value open-source contributions, and we strive to remain the most transparent company ever. If you have experience leading financial controls and enjoy working in a fast-paced, innovative environment, we want to hear from you! Come help us build something amazing together in an organization that thrives on impact and continuous improvement.
