The opportunity
A great writer who gets technical stuff – and loves figuring out how to explain it to other people.
What you'll do
Writing content that helps people and agents use PostHog better. Use case: guides, tutorials, technical explainers, engineering posts. The stuff we know is valuable and haven't had the capacity to do as much as we want to.
Researching and explaining hard things. Technical details, engineering: processes, and concepts that most people gloss over. Going deep enough that a builder actually learns something.
Figuring out what to write. Looking at what we are shipping as a company,: what our priorities are, and what's interesting to decide yourself. There isn't going to be someone telling you what to write all the time.
Choosing the right format for the idea. Sometimes that's an engineering blog.: Sometimes it's an SEO explainer. Sometimes it's a thread on X.
Working with engineers and other marketers. Getting the story of what they: built, why it matters, and what's interesting about it for normal builders. You might edit their blog posts too.
