How PostHog operates

James Hawkins is the cofounder and CEO of PostHog. PostHog is a platform to analyze, test, observe, and deploy new features.
This is the second time James has been on and the episode is mostly about how they run PostHog.
It's a pretty unconventional approach - probably because James thinks very deeply about how organizations should operate.
What we discuss:
How PostHog hire
His approach to one-on-one meetings
The role of engineers in product development
The impact of open source projects on PostHog's success
A surprising secret to success (fun)
Importance of listening to developers
