Job Description, Responsibilities & Requirements
About the Position
Host for the Freemius Podcast
We are looking for a passionate and experienced podcast host to join our remote-first team at Freemius. This role is not just about speaking into a microphone; it's about editorial leadership, shaping conversations, and bringing insightful content to our audience of micro SaaS, indie developers, and WordPress plugin authors.
About Freemius
We’re a remote-first team spread across more than 10 countries, helping software makers grow globally with our “business in a box” solution. We handle payment processing, subscription management, sales tax compliance, licensing, and analytics so they can focus on building amazing products.
There are no nap pods or kombucha on tap, but if you’re hungry to build, ready to take ownership, and energized by meaningful work that pushes you out of your comfort zone, you probably belong here.
We ship fast, learn as we go, and take ideas from spark to live in days. This is an exciting time to join Freemius as we’re rapidly growing and transforming how software products are sold in the WordPress and micro-SaaS market.
Responsibilities
- Host and record podcast episodes.
- Research guests and prep interview outlines.
- Shape conversations around a clear thesis, not loose chats.
- Help define episode angles and themes.
- Work with the team on guest selection and season direction.
- Occasionally contribute to show positioning, intros, and episode framing.
Requirements
- Native or near-native English.
- Experience hosting a podcast, webinar series, or long-form interviews.
- 3+ years working in SaaS, software, or tech marketing, product, or founder roles.
- Strong point of view on how software businesses grow.
- Comfortable challenging guests, asking follow-ups, and cutting through vague answers.
- Clear spoken communication. No filler. No buzzwords.
- Curious, well-read, and opinionated.
- Reliable with prep, recording schedules, and follow-ups.
- Strong social media presence, able to help us source guests & promote the show.
Nice to Have
- Experience in building and selling a software product online.
