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.
About the role
Freemius is hiring a new podcast host.
This is not a presenter role. It is an editorial role with a microphone.
Formerly known as plugin.fm, the Freemius podcast is a long-form podcast for software makers. We produce content for mostly micro SaaS, indie developers, WordPress plugin authors, and small software teams building real products. The show works because conversations are sharp, opinionated, and grounded in real operating experience.
We’re looking for someone who can carry that forward.
What we’re looking for
- Native or near-native English.
- You’ve hosted a podcast, webinar series, or long-form interviews before.
- 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.
- Able to prep deeply while keeping conversations natural.
- 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.
- Bonus, not required: You went through the journey of building a software product and selling it online.
What you’ll do
- 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.
