  PostHog | Remote (US/Europe timezones) | Senior full-stack engineer / SRE | https://posthog.com

  PostHog is open-source product analytics. Graduated YC W20, we were the most popular B2B software HN launch since 2012. Our GitHub repo [0] has 3.8k stars and a growing and active community. We've raised significant funding with 10 years of runway and are growing quickly. We're 15+ people. We're looking for a full-stack engineer, someone who knows what a good product should look like. Our stack is Django/React/Redux (Kea -- main contributor works at PostHog too!).

  Also looking for an SRE to take care of scaling huge event volumes, both for our cloud offering and larger customers.

  We have a culture of written async communication (see our handbook [1]), lots of individual responsibility and an opportunity to make a huge impact. Being fully remote means we're able to create a team that is truly diverse. We're based all over the world, and the team includes ex data team leads from Uber, former YC founders, CTOs turned developers and recent grads.

• A tale of 5 pivots, thousands of users and $12M. What we learned
  news.ycombinator.com | 2021-01-22

  > Along our journey (/series of failed ideas), we got frustrated having to send all our user data to 3rd parties to understand our product usage. It felt wrong and it meant we'd lose a bunch of user data that would have been quite useful. So we built PostHog.

  Great write-up, but I wouldn't call PostHog a pivot, but rather focusing on really solving one's own pain-points; often a well-trodden way of finding product-market fit [0].

  > There were a load of features we wanted conceptually - but it was when we realized that the strategy was being open source first and foremost that we felt more excited than we ever had before. When that clicked, we knew we'd just fallen in love with this idea. We started building on January 23rd, 2020.

  Given 'tis the season of FOSS projects pivoting to non-FOSS licenses; I am interested in PostHog's pivot to from "FOSS alternative to Heap / Amplitude" to "source-available" instead [1] :)
