Technical Account Executive - EMEA

About PostHog Product development used to mean manually writing code, running analysis, diagnosing bugs, and rolling out changes using dozens of tools. PostHog is the only platform that acts like a co-pilot for you (and your AI agents) to do it all – autonomously. We started with open-source product analytics, launched out of Y Combinator's W20 cohort . We've since shipped more than a dozen products , including: PostHog Code , the only AI devtool that understands your product, not just your codebase. A built-in data warehouse , so users can query product and customer data together using custom SQL insights. PostHog AI , an AI-powered analyst that answers product questions, helps users find useful session recordings, and writes custom SQL queries. We are: Product-led . More than 450,000 organizations have installed PostHog, mostly driven by word-of-mouth. We have intensely strong product-market fit. Default alive . Revenue is growing incredibly quickly, and we're very efficient. We raise money to push ambition and grow faster, not to keep the lights on. Well-funded. We've raised more than $180m from some of the world's top investors. We're set up for a long, ambitious journey. We're focused on building an awesome product for end users, hiring exceptional teammates, shipping fast, and being as weird as possible . 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. What you’ll be doing We’ve proven that to be successful with our customers, we don’t need to stack multiple people all doing different roles for a customer. With the right person working with them, who has the right balance of commercial and technical skills, we can get them excited enough to switch to PostHog and stick with us for a long time. Technical Account Executives own the initial relationship with customers who get in touch via the website and want to speak with a human before signing up to PostHog. It’s early days, so you’ll cover the full spectrum of customers from high-velocity startups looking to move quickly, to more complex strategic engagements with Mid-Market/Enterprise customers. They’ll also do warm outbound to users from large companies who sign up for PostHog themselves. Their focus is guiding the customer on their initial evaluation of PostHog as well as right-sizing their contract according to their needs. This means: Winning new business. You'll find your way to the right people at prospective customers — engineers, PMs, founders — and show them why PostHog beats whatever they're using now. You own the whole deal, first call to close and beyond, and you’re comfortable in your ability to meet and exceed a quarterly target. Owning customer feedback and making sure it gets to the wider PostHog team. You’ll work directly with product teams, we don’t believe in bureaucracy here. Being hyper responsive is a must . You need to feel like an extension of a customer’s existing team. We try to do as much customer comms in Slack as possible. You’ll need to be an expert on all PostHog products , so that you can help customers see the value and adopt them. Comfortable with outbound . You'll earn meetings through relevance and creativity – not through volume and pressure. We do weird outbound. Switching contexts comfortably. Prospect a
