Things we care about

Transparency: Everyone can read about our roadmap, how we pay (or even let go of) people, our strategy, and how we work, in our public company handbook. Internally, we share revenue, notes and slides from board meetings, and fundraising plans, so everyone has the context they need to make good decisions.
Autonomy: We don’t tell anyone what to do. Everyone chooses what to work on next based on what's going to have the biggest impact on our customers, and what they find interesting and motivating to work on. Engineers lead product teams and make product decisions. Teams are flexible and easy to change when needed.
Shipping fast: Why not now? We want to build a lot of products; we can't do that shipping at a normal pace. We've built the company around small teams – autonomous, highly-efficient groups of cracked engineers who can outship much larger companies because they own their products end-to-end.
Time for building: Nothing gets shipped in a meeting. We're a natively remote company. We default to async communication – PRs > Issues > Slack. Tuesdays and Thursdays are meeting-free days, and we prioritize heads down building time over perfect coordination. This will be the most productive job you've ever had.
Ambition: We want to solve big problems. We strongly believe that aiming for the best possible upside, and sometimes missing, is better than never trying. We're optimistic about what's possible and our ability to get there.
Being weird: Weird means redesigning an already world-class website for the 5th time. It means shipping literally every product that relates to customer data. It means building an objectively unnecessary developer toy with dubious shareholder value. Doing weird stuff is a competitive advantage. And it's fun.

Who we're looking for

Enthusiastic drivers. We need proactive people that can fully own projects and get them done, and know to get help when needed. "Are we there yet?" is the wrong question.
Optimistic problem solvers. Things get hard here sometimes, whether it's scaling, shipping complex products, handling a stream of support requests, or trying to ship something that touches multiple teams. We need people who won't get disheartened, and will collaborate, iterate, and ship their way out of anything.
Grown ups. We’re an international bunch of weirdos, but one thing unites us: everyone is kind, considerate, and professional towards each other. This isn't about age or experience, it's about being low-ego, flexible, and respectful.
Genuine builders. PostHog is full of people who just love building stuff, people who would still be building software even if there wasn't a paycheck at the end. If this sounds like you, we should talk.

What you'll be doing

Managing large fleets of EC2-based VMs, disks, and networking for data-intensive workloads
Improving operational tooling around deploys, schema changes, backups, restores, and incident response
Working closely with ClickHouse engineers to turn database-level needs into infra-level solutions
Reducing operational load by identifying repeat pain points and eliminating them through code and self-healing automation
Participating in on-call and incident response, with a strong focus on making incidents rarer over time
You’ll have room to design and automate, not just respond to alerts.

Requirements

Prior experience with ClickHouse or other OLAP databases
Strong experience operating production infrastructure on AWS
Hands-on experience with VM-based systems (EC2), not just managed PaaS
Experience automating infrastructure using tools like Terraform, Ansible, or similar
Solid understanding of Linux systems (disk, memory, networking, failure modes)
Experience supporting stateful systems (databases, queues, storage systems, etc.)
Ability to debug and reason about performance and reliability issues in production
You’re comfortable owning systems end-to-end, including on-call responsibilities
