PostHog

23h

About The Position

So far we’ve managed to scale to $50m ARR, raised $180M through our series E, held our first tender offer, opened three entities and managed to keep our engineering team happy the whole time. We've got a really solid foundation of systems, processes and controls but we're a complex business growing fast - we don't know what we don't know. Our strong base allows us to look even further into the future and make even bigger bets. Now we are looking for a Finance Lead to come in and help us build on what is already here. Maybe you were, or reported to, a CFO or VP Finance, and want to lead PostHog in its next phase.
This involves helping us continually get through audits, navigate compliance, prepare budgets & forecasts, and be the leader that helps make Finance an enabler of every team at PostHog. You’ll power every product, infra, sales, CS, legal, people (you get it) team member to think about the financial success of the business. You’ll be able to tell the story to our newest team member and get them as excited as you will our board and future investors. This role is about living in the important details and translating these into the big picture.
