Job Description
Role Description
We're looking for a sharp, stats-literate Analyst who can own product analytics end-to-end. We need someone with the judgment to know what questions to ask and the rigor to answer them properly.
- Own experimentation.
- Design A/B tests with proper sample size calculations, power analysis, and significance testing. Run them. Interpret them. Flag when results are misleading.
- Analyze retention and engagement.
- Build and maintain cohort analyses, retention curves, and conversion funnels. Identify what separates users who stick from users who churn.
- Answer the hard questions.
- Define and track metrics.
- Help us build the right metrics framework for our stage. Know when a metric is vanity and when it's signal.
- Communicate findings clearly.
- Present insights to technical and non-technical stakeholders in a way that drives action, not confusion.
- Use LLMs as a force multiplier.
- We expect you to use AI tools aggressively for query generation, data wrangling, and visualization -- so you can spend your time on the thinking, not the typing.
Qualifications
- 3-5 years of experience in product analytics, data analysis, or a quantitative role at a tech company (startup experience strongly preferred)
- Strong statistical foundations: hypothesis testing, confidence intervals, Bayesian reasoning, power analysis, regression. Not textbook knowledge -- practical application.
- Demonstrated ability to design and analyze A/B tests and other controlled experiments
- Sharp product intuition -- you think about why users behave a certain way, not just how
- Excellent written and verbal communication
Requirements
- Fluent in SQL. You'll be writing HogQL (ClickHouse-flavored SQL) against PostHog, so comfort with analytical SQL dialects is important.
- Python proficiency (pandas, scipy, statsmodels) for ad hoc analysis beyond what a BI tool can do
- Experience with PostHog or similar product analytics platforms (Amplitude, Mixpanel)
- Experience at an early-stage startup where you had to build analytics from scratch
What we don't need
- ML/data science specialization (we're not building recommender systems)
- Data engineering / pipeline skills (this isn't a dbt or Airflow role)
- A Master's degree (we care about what you can do, not your credentials)
Interview Process
- Intro call (30 min) -- get to know each other, talk through your experience
- Stats & analysis discussion (~1.5 hrs) -- assess your product analytics skills and stats fluency
- Culture & product chat with CEO (30 min) -- alignment on mission, working style, product thinking
Details
- Location: Remote (some overlap with US PST hours expected)
- Compensation: commensurate with experience. Equity included.
- Team: You'll be joining a small, high-caliber team across the world. Direct line to founders and engineering leadership.
