You'll be the engineer customers trust to make Firecrawl work in the real world. When a high-value account hits a hard extraction problem, a messy integration, or a \"can it even do this?\" question, you're the one who shows up, digs into their stack, and ships the thing that unblocks them. This is a customer-facing engineering role measured in adoption and expansion, not tickets closed. You build, you deploy, you own the outcome.
Salary Range: $209,000–$265,000 USD/year OTE
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). On-site, five days a week.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 3+ years in a customer-facing technical role or equivalent
Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US. We also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US.
Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Land inside a customer's environment, understand what they're building, and make Firecrawl work for their actual use case
Get hands-on with the product against real customer data, build integrations and POCs that turn \"not sure this works for us\" into production
Run technical discovery: diagnose where a customer's extraction or pipeline breaks, and know whether it's usage, a bug, or a real product gap
Partner with the Deployment team to turn technical wins into adoption and expansion, and hit team targets
Be the trusted technical voice for accounts, and bring what you learn in the field back to product and engineering
Know when to solve it yourself and when to pull in engineering
You've done forward-deployed, solutions, or customer-facing engineering, ideally at a developer, API, or AI-infra product
You're technical enough to earn a developer's respect: you can read code, use an API, and build a real POC or integration yourself
You've owned the full lifecycle for a customer, from demo to POC to production, and can point to the technical work that made it land
You check before you build: you can tell user error from a bug from a real product gap, and you don't turn every ask into a custom feature
You can translate between deep technical detail and business value without losing either audience
You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship a working POC against real data than perfect a doc
Backgrounds that often do well: solutions engineers or SEs at API/devtools companies. Customer-facing engineers at startups who owned the full lifecycle from demo to deployment. Technical account managers who actually built things. Ex-founders who sold and delivered their own product.
A pure backend engineer who doesn't want to be in front of customers
A quota-carrying seller who can't build
Someone who needs a fully-built playbook before they can run
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $209,000–$265,000 USD/year OTE, based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner
EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian
401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you
Pre-tax benefits: HSA, FSA, and commuter benefits to help your wallet out a bit
Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife
SF HQ perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, intense ping pong, and peak startup energy
E-Bike transportation: A loaner electric bike to get you around the city, on us
Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Tell us about a customer or partner you got to production and the technical problems you solved to get there. We care about what you've done, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical & Customer Scenario Interview (~55 min): We'll walk through a real customer scenario: how you'd run an onboarding, handle a live technical question, and identify expansion opportunities in an account. We're looking for technical depth, customer instincts, and how you think about growing revenue, not rehearsed pitches.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Take on a real, scoped customer scenario with the team, paid at a contractor rate. Build a POC, scope an integration, or run a technical discovery. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what the role actually feels like, and we see how you operate. We'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to be the engineer customers ask for by name, and the reason accounts expand, at one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure startups, this is your shot.

Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). On-site, five days a week.

Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Own the monetization surfaces end to end: pricing, plans, upgrade flows, and the self-serve to sales handoff
Instrument the revenue funnel, run pricing and packaging experiments, and ship the changes that move paid conversion and expansion
Treat paid conversion and net revenue retention as your number. You own it, measure it, and move it
You've personally owned a revenue metric (paid conversion, upgrade rate, expansion, or NRR), and moved it, not just shipped features someone else measured
You're a strong full-stack engineer who's worked on growth or PLG products
You've personally owned a conversion, activation, or funnel metric, and moved it, not just shipped features someone else measured
You think like a scientist: hypothesis, experiment, measure, iterate. You've run real A/B tests you can talk about, including what you learned when they didn't go as planned
You've worked on developer-facing products (SDKs, playgrounds, docs surfaces, APIs) and understand how developers actually adopt tools
You have a track record of staying with your work long enough to see it through. We look for real tenure, not a trail of short stints
You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
Bonus if you've shipped in-product growth surfaces at a dev-tools or SaaS company (onboarding, activation, upgrade flows, in-product guidance) or built conversion pages that measurably moved signup
Bonus for experience with our stack (Next.js, React, Tailwind, TypeScript, Vercel, PostgreSQL, and the Anthropic Claude API) or for having built with LLMs in production: prompt engineering, tool use, inference pipelines
A growth marketer. This is an engineering role that writes production code
A backend engineer with no interest in the product surface or the metrics
Someone who's only ever shipped features without owning an outcome

If you care about what \"good\" actually means and have the engineering depth to measure it, this is the role.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $250,000–$290,000 USD/year (SF) / $210,000–$224,000 CAD/year (Toronto)\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 4+ years in ML, research engineering, or data-heavy backend, with real evaluation work\n\nWork Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider work permit sponsorship case by case through our Toronto Hub.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT FIRECRAWL\n\nFirecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.\n\nIn September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.\n\nWe're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.\n\nThis is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.\n\n\n\n\nOUR VALUES\n\n - Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.\n\n - Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.\n\n - All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.\n\n - Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Design the metrics that define what \"good output\" actually means across millions of sites, formats, and edge cases\n\n - Build the pipelines and harnesses that measure quality rigorously and at scale\n\n - Generate and curate the datasets that make evaluation trustworthy\n\n - Own the feedback loop from output quality back to model and product decisions\n\n - Turn \"did that work?\" into an answer the whole team can act on\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - You have the engineering depth to build real evaluation systems, not just run existing ones\n\n - You care deeply about what \"good\" means and how to measure it rigorously\n\n - You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems where the metric itself has to be invented\n\n - You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Someone who only wants to run benchmarks someone else designed\n\n - A pure researcher who won't build the systems, or a pure engineer who won't think about methodology\n\n - Someone who needs a fully-specced ticket to start\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever.

Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Show us what you've built: proxy systems, networking infrastructure, reliability wins against hard targets. We care about what you've shipped, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical Chat (~45 min): We'll dig into a real problem from our world (holding reliability under spiky load, keeping a proxy pool healthy, beating a site that fights back) and talk through how you'd approach it. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you memorized the answer.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Work with the team on a real, scoped piece of the infrastructure, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you ship. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If making Firecrawl \"just work\" on the sites that fight back the hardest sounds like your kind of problem, you should join us.

","descriptionPlain":"BACKEND INFRASTRUCTURE ENGINEER\n\n\n\nYou'll work on the infrastructure that makes Firecrawl fast and reliable against a web that constantly changes and fights back. This is deep systems work: keeping success rates high against sites with aggressive defenses, managing the proxy layer that powers reliable data collection at scale, and pushing throughput and reliability under heavy, spiky load. When Firecrawl \"just works\" on a site that tries hard to stop it, that's this team. You'll own real infrastructure from day one, not tickets in a backlog.\n\nSalary Range: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto)\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 3+ years in backend, networking, or infrastructure engineering\n\nWork Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider work permit sponsorship case by case through our Toronto Hub.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT FIRECRAWL\n\nFirecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.\n\nIn September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 187k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.\n\nWe're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.\n\nThis is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.\n\n\n\n\nOUR VALUES\n\n - Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.\n\n - Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.\n\n - All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.\n\n - Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Build and maintain the infrastructure that powers reliable data collection at scale\n\n - Improve success rates against sites with aggressive defenses\n\n - Own the health, rotation, and cost efficiency of the proxy layer\n\n - Push throughput and reliability under heavy, spiky, real-world load\n\n - Debug hard, intermittent failures across the stack and make them stay fixed\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - You've worked on networking, proxies, or high-throughput backend systems\n\n - You're relentless about reliability and comfortable in messy, adversarial problem spaces\n\n - You can own a system end to end and keep it healthy in production\n\n - You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Someone who wants clean, well-defined problems only\n\n - Someone who avoids on-call or production ownership\n\n - Someone who needs the environment to be stable to do their best work\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever.

Thirty-plus open roles across engineering, research, go-to-market, and G&A, run through a mix of AI recruiting partners, agencies, sourcing tools, and our own outreach. Your job is to run all of it as one system: brief every partner, hold the bar, keep candidates moving, and make sure the right people get to yes. Today the Chief of Staff does this. Starting now, it’s you.
You’ll report to the Chief of Staff and sit on the operations team. You’ll work closely with the Deputy Chief of Staff, who runs the operating layer around hiring (tooling, onboarding kickoff, the weekly hiring digest), and directly with hiring managers across the company. Beyond hiring, you’ll be our recruiter on the ground at Firecrawl After Dark and our hackathons, and you’ll help run events wherever we host them. You’ll be based with us in San Francisco or Toronto, with travel for events.
Salary Range: $160,000–$179,000 USD/year (SF) / $81,000–$88,000 USD/year (Toronto)
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, in office 3+ days a week.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting, with technical hires closed at a startup
Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia), but we’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider sponsorship on a case-by-case basis through our Toronto Hub.
Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It’s the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we’re spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we’re just getting started.
We’re a small team punching far above our weight, working out of SF HQ and our new Toronto Hub. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Own every recruiting channel: Run our AI recruiting partners, agencies, sourcing tools, referrals, and inbound as one funnel, so no role depends on a single source.
Brief and calibrate partners: Translate each hiring manager’s bar into a clear target profile, give partners fast, specific feedback on every submission, and recalibrate when the shape is off.
Judge submission quality: Read every profile against the real bar, not a scorecard. Know which partners are sending great people and which are sending volume, and act on it.
Fill the gaps yourself: When a channel isn’t producing for a hard role, source directly and build the pipeline.
Run the process: Screening, intro chats, scheduling, references, offer packets, and closing, with quick responses and honest declines.
Be the first impression: You’ll run the intro chat for every role at Firecrawl, so for most candidates you’re the first person they meet. Every candidate, hired or not, should leave with a good story about us.
Recruit at our events: Be our in-house recruiter at Firecrawl After Dark and our hackathons. Meet builders in person, spot the standouts, and turn good conversations into pipeline.
Be part of operations: Help plan and execute events wherever we host them, from logistics to day-of, and jump in on other operations work when the team needs a hand.
Own Ashby as a system: Pipelines, stages, AI screening criteria per role, and reporting the team actually reads.
Keep hiring managers moving: Run weekly syncs, write candidate notes that let them decide fast, and flag stalled loops before they cost us a candidate.
Track what works: Time to hire, pass rates by stage, and source quality by partner. Use the numbers to fix the funnel and cut what isn’t working.
Keep postings current: Draft job descriptions on our template and hand every hire cleanly to onboarding.
Technical recruiting experience: You’ve closed technical hires at a startup (backend, infrastructure, ML, or developer tools) and can talk to an engineer about what they build.
Partner management: You’ve worked with agencies or sourcing partners and made them better. You can give feedback that changes what they send.
A real bar: You have opinions about who’s great and you’ll say so to a hiring manager. You’d rather send three great people than twelve fine ones.
Operational rigor: You run many roles at once without dropping candidates or partners.
AI-native: You’re fluent in Ashby (or a comparable ATS) and use AI tools every day, from sourcing to screening to writing.
You close: You understand comp bands and equity well enough to walk a candidate through an offer, and you know when to bring in the hiring manager or a founder.
Great with people: Candidates remember how you made them feel. You’re as comfortable working a room at a hackathon as you are running a screen.
Range: You’re happy to run a check-in table, haul supplies, or pick up an ops project. Nothing’s beneath the job.
Backgrounds that often do well: in-house recruiters at fast-growing startups who’ve managed agencies alongside their own reqs, agency recruiters who’ve placed infrastructure or ML engineers and want to go in-house, technical sourcers who’ve grown into full-cycle work.
Pass-throughs: Recruiters who forward whatever a partner sends without judging it.
Process-dependent: People who need a sourcer, a scheduler, and a recruiting ops team to run a req.
Volume metrics: Anyone who measures success by candidates submitted instead of hires who stay.
Recruiting-only: People who see events and operations work as someone else’s job.
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we’re building won’t stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn’t, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn’t for you.

Application Review: Tell us about the hardest technical role you’ve closed: what the bar was, where the hire came from, and how you managed the channels that fed it. Include rough numbers from your last seat (roles carried, hires closed, time to hire). We care about the work, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We’ll talk about what you’ve been hiring for, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you’re looking for next. Time for your questions too.
Funnel Chat (~45 min): We’ll take one of our real open roles and walk through how you’d run it: how you’d brief our partners, how you’d judge what comes back, where you’d source directly, and how you’d know it’s working. Come ready to think out loud.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Run a real search with us: brief our partners, review and give feedback on submissions, fill gaps with your own sourcing, and present a slate on one of our open roles, paid at a contractor rate. Much of it can happen from wherever you are, and we’ll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to build the hiring machine for a company that’s going to be a lot bigger a year from now, you should join us.

","descriptionPlain":"IN-HOUSE TECHNICAL RECRUITER\n\n\n\nYou’ll own how Firecrawl hires. Thirty-plus open roles across engineering, research, go-to-market, and G&A, run through a mix of AI recruiting partners, agencies, sourcing tools, and our own outreach. Your job is to run all of it as one system: brief every partner, hold the bar, keep candidates moving, and make sure the right people get to yes. Today the Chief of Staff does this. Starting now, it’s you.\n\nYou’ll report to the Chief of Staff and sit on the operations team. You’ll work closely with the Deputy Chief of Staff, who runs the operating layer around hiring (tooling, onboarding kickoff, the weekly hiring digest), and directly with hiring managers across the company. Beyond hiring, you’ll be our recruiter on the ground at Firecrawl After Dark and our hackathons, and you’ll help run events wherever we host them. You’ll be based with us in San Francisco or Toronto, with travel for events.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $160,000–$179,000 USD/year (SF) / $81,000–$88,000 USD/year (Toronto)\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, in office 3+ days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 3+ years of full-cycle recruiting, with technical hires closed at a startup\n\nWork Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia), but we’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider sponsorship on a case-by-case basis through our Toronto Hub.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT FIRECRAWL\n\nFirecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It’s the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.\n\nIn September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we’re spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we’re just getting started.\n\nWe’re a small team punching far above our weight, working out of SF HQ and our new Toronto Hub. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.\n\nThis is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.\n\n\n\n\nOUR VALUES\n\n - Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.\n\n - Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.\n\n - All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.\n\n - Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Own every recruiting channel: Run our AI recruiting partners, agencies, sourcing tools, referrals, and inbound as one funnel, so no role depends on a single source.\n\n - Brief and calibrate partners: Translate each hiring manager’s bar into a clear target profile, give partners fast, specific feedback on every submission, and recalibrate when the shape is off.\n\n - Judge submission quality: Read every profile against the real bar, not a scorecard. Know which partners are sending great people and which are sending volume, and act on it.\n\n - Fill the gaps yourself: When a channel isn’t producing for a hard role, source directly and build the pipeline.\n\n - Run the process: Screening, intro chats, scheduling, references, offer packets, and closing, with quick responses and honest declines.\n\n - Be the first impression: You’ll run the intro chat for every role at Firecrawl, so for most candidates you’re the first person they meet. Every candidate, hired or not, should leave with a good story about us.\n\n - Recruit at our events: Be our in-house recruiter at Firecrawl After Dark and our hackathons. Meet builders in person, spot the standouts, and turn good conversations into pipeline.\n\n - Be part of operations: Help plan and execute events wherever we host them, from logistics to day-of, and jump in on other operations work when the team needs a hand.\n\n - Own Ashby as a system: Pipelines, stages, AI screening criteria per role, and reporting the team actually reads.\n\n - Keep hiring managers moving: Run weekly syncs, write candidate notes that let them decide fast, and flag stalled loops before they cost us a candidate.\n\n - Track what works: Time to hire, pass rates by stage, and source quality by partner. Use the numbers to fix the funnel and cut what isn’t working.\n\n - Keep postings current: Draft job descriptions on our template and hand every hire cleanly to onboarding.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - Technical recruiting experience: You’ve closed technical hires at a startup (backend, infrastructure, ML, or developer tools) and can talk to an engineer about what they build.\n\n - Partner management: You’ve worked with agencies or sourcing partners and made them better. You can give feedback that changes what they send.\n\n - A real bar: You have opinions about who’s great and you’ll say so to a hiring manager. You’d rather send three great people than twelve fine ones.\n\n - Operational rigor: You run many roles at once without dropping candidates or partners.\n\n - AI-native: You’re fluent in Ashby (or a comparable ATS) and use AI tools every day, from sourcing to screening to writing.\n\n - You close: You understand comp bands and equity well enough to walk a candidate through an offer, and you know when to bring in the hiring manager or a founder.\n\n - Great with people: Candidates remember how you made them feel. You’re as comfortable working a room at a hackathon as you are running a screen.\n\n - Range: You’re happy to run a check-in table, haul supplies, or pick up an ops project. Nothing’s beneath the job.\n\nBackgrounds that often do well: in-house recruiters at fast-growing startups who’ve managed agencies alongside their own reqs, agency recruiters who’ve placed infrastructure or ML engineers and want to go in-house, technical sourcers who’ve grown into full-cycle work.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Pass-throughs: Recruiters who forward whatever a partner sends without judging it.\n\n - Process-dependent: People who need a sourcer, a scheduler, and a recruiting ops team to run a req.\n\n - Volume metrics: Anyone who measures success by candidates submitted instead of hires who stay.\n\n - Recruiting-only: People who see events and operations work as someone else’s job.\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we’re building won’t stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn’t, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn’t for you.\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS & PERKS\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES\n\n - Salary that makes sense: $160,000–$179,000 USD/year (SF) / $81,000–$88,000 USD/year (Toronto), based on impact, not tenure.\n\n - Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build\n\n - Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge\n\n - Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents\n\n - Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human\n\n - Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally\n\n - Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls\n\n - Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO US-BASED FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES\n\n - Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works\n\n - Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs\n\n - Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you\n\n - Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule\n\n - Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner\n\n - EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian\n\n - 401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you\n\n - Pre-tax benefits: HSA, FSA, and commuter benefits to help your wallet out a bit\n\n - Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO CANADA-BASED FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES\n\n - Full coverage: Manulife extended health, dental, and vision, 100% employer-paid for you, your partner, and kids.\n\n - Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid life, AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability.\n\n - Virtual care: Dialogue Premium for virtual health visits, on us.\n\n - Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule.\n\n - Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner.\n\n - Group RRSP: Wealthsimple group RRSP to help future-you out.\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO SF-BASED EMPLOYEES\n\n - SF HQ perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, intense ping pong, and peak startup energy\n\n - E-Bike transportation: A loaner electric bike to get you around the city, on us\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO TORONTO-BASED EMPLOYEES\n\n - Toronto Hub perks: Snacks, drinks, team meals, views down University Ave, and steps from Union Station.\n\n - Covered transit: A monthly PRESTO pass for GO, subway, and streetcar.\n\n\n\n\nINTERVIEW PROCESS\n\nApplication Review: Tell us about the hardest technical role you’ve closed: what the bar was, where the hire came from, and how you managed the channels that fed it.

In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Own customer onboarding end to end: land in their environment, scope the integration, and get them to production fast
Get hands-on with the product against real customer data, build the integration, and solve the problems that block go-live
Run technical discovery: diagnose where a customer's extraction or pipeline breaks, and know whether it's usage, a bug, or a real product gap
Turn a successful launch into adoption and expansion, and partner with the Deployment team to hit team targets
Be the trusted technical voice during rollout, and bring what you learn in the field back to product and engineering
Know when to solve it yourself and when to pull in engineering
You've done implementation, forward-deployed, solutions, or customer-facing engineering, ideally at a developer, API, or AI-infra product
You're technical enough to earn a developer's respect: you can read code, use an API, and build a real integration yourself
You've taken customers from signed to live in production, and can point to the technical work that made the rollout land
You check before you build: you can tell user error from a bug from a real product gap, and you don't turn every ask into a custom feature
You can translate between deep technical detail and business value without losing either audience
You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship a working integration against real data than perfect a doc
Backgrounds that often do well: implementation or onboarding engineers at API/devtools companies. Solutions engineers who owned the full lifecycle from signed deal to production. Technical account managers who actually built things. Ex-founders who sold and delivered their own product.
A pure backend engineer who doesn't want to be in front of customers
A project manager who coordinates rollouts but can't build
Someone who needs a fully-built playbook before they can run
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $209,000–$265,000 USD/year OTE, based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner
EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian
401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you
Pre-tax benefits: HSA, FSA, and commuter benefits to help your wallet out a bit
Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife
SF HQ perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, intense ping pong, and peak startup energy
E-Bike transportation: A loaner electric bike to get you around the city, on us
Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Tell us about a customer you got live in production and the technical problems you solved to get there. We care about what you've done, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical & Customer Scenario Interview (~55 min): We'll walk through a real customer scenario: how you'd scope an implementation, handle a live technical question, and get an account to production. We're looking for technical depth, customer instincts, and how you think about time-to-value, not rehearsed pitches.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Take on a real, scoped customer scenario with the team, paid at a contractor rate. Build an integration, scope a rollout, or run a technical discovery. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what the role actually feels like, and we see how you operate. We'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.

Then you'll look at how it performed and use that to make the next one better.
Your main focus is fast, natural short-form content made for social. You'll work mostly behind the camera, directing founders and teammates and bringing your own ideas to life, and occasionally help with more polished launch videos. You'll be based with us in San Francisco and travel to capture stories where they happen.
Salary Range: $148,000–$168,000 USD/year
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week. Travel required for shoots.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 3+ years shooting, editing, and publishing short-form video, or a body of work that makes the case
Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US. We also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US.
Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Turn \"we should make a video about that\" into a video. Spot something worth sharing, get behind the camera, and take it through the edit to publishing. Find the hook, nail the pacing, and make the sound and captions work for the story
Develop recurring short-form formats around our founders, product, customers, and team that people come back for
Work with product and engineering to understand what we're building and find a clear, interesting way to show it. They'll help with technical details and complex demos; you'll bring the storytelling and production craft
Film in the office and on the road: launches, events, customer stories, conversations, and behind-the-scenes moments. Help people feel comfortable and natural on camera
Support larger launch videos when needed with footage, edits, or social cutdowns
Own the publishing calendar. Coordinate with the marketing team, prepare the copy and channel-specific versions, and get videos out while the story is still relevant
Track views, watch time, retention, shares, and audience growth. Share which hooks, topics, and formats connect, and use that to decide what to make next
You have strong instincts for story, hooks, and pacing. You can spot a good moment and turn it into something someone else cares about
You can run a lean shoot yourself: camera, sound, lighting, and directing. You're comfortable using a phone when it suits the idea
You can take footage through a finished edit, including clean audio, captions, and color grading as needed. Use whatever tools help you do your best work, AI included
You're curious about what we're building. You ask good questions and can work with teammates to turn unfamiliar ideas into clear stories. Familiarity with Firecrawl, open source, or developer tools helps, but it isn't required
You've done this for real. You've filmed founders, customers, or events, or grown a recurring video series, and you can show the results. Motion graphics and animated product demos are a plus
Backgrounds that often do well: in-house video producers at startups or developer tools companies, social video leads who've grown a recurring series, documentary or news shooters who moved into short-form, one-person production teams who've done every job on a shoot.
Editors who wait for someone else to find the story and hand them the footage
Producers who need a crew, a studio, and a two-week timeline to ship a 60-second video
Anyone who'd rather debate polish than look at what people actually watched, finished, and shared
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $148,000–$168,000 USD/year, based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule

EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian
401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you

We care about the work, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been making, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Story Chat (~45 min): We'll pick something real from our world (a product update, a founder take, a customer story) and talk through how you'd turn it into a video: the hook, the format, how you'd shoot it lean, and how you'd know if it worked. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you find the story, not whether you know our product yet.
Founder Chat (~25 min): A conversation with Eric, our Chief Growth Officer and the person you'd report to. Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Make a real video with us, from concept to published, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what making things at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you work. The edit can happen from wherever you are, and we'll flex around your current commitments.

One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.\n\nIn September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.\n\nWe're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.\n\nThis is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.\n\n\n\n\nOUR VALUES\n\n - Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.\n\n - Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.\n\n - All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.\n\n - Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Take a signed data partnership and make it live in production: the provider catalog, the routing that serves partner data through the Firecrawl API, and the ingestion that keeps each feed flowing as the partner's systems change\n\n - Own the technical surface of the Exchange, working alongside the engineers already building in it\n\n - Make every access chargeable: the metering that turns partner usage into something we can bill, report on, and pay out against\n\n - Write the gating that enforces what each source's terms allow, so a permissioned source stays permissioned once it is serving real traffic\n\n - Work with the Head of Data Partnerships, and with the founders, on what is technically real for a deal before it gets signed\n\n - Turn each integration into less work for the next one, so the second partnership lands faster than the first\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - You've built and shipped developer-facing product that people actually used\n\n - You've owned production data or integration systems end to end: pipelines, third-party feeds, metering or billing infrastructure, or comparable\n\n - You care about developer experience like a designer cares about pixels: latency, response format, docs, the whole feel of it\n\n - You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped features\n\n - You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Someone who needs a fully-specced ticket to start\n\n - A strong backend engineer who's indifferent to how the product feels to use\n\n - Someone who wants partnerships to mean slide decks, with the engineering handed off to someone else\n\n - Someone who optimizes for process over shipping\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS & PERKS\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES\n\n - Salary that makes sense: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto), based on impact, not tenure\n\n - Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build\n\n - Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge\n\n - Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents\n\n - Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human\n\n - Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally\n\n - Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls\n\n - Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO US-BASED FULL-TIME EMPLOYEES\n\n - Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids).

Show us systems you've owned (integrations, pipelines, data infrastructure), the strategy behind them, and the calls you made. We care about what you've built and shipped, not where you went to school.\n\nIntro Chat (~25 min): A conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. What you've built, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for. Time for your questions too.\n\nTechnical Chat (~60 min): We'll dig into a real problem from our world, taking a signed source from nothing to live, metered access developers can call, and talk through how you'd approach it. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you memorized the answer.\n\nFounder Chats (~60 min): Deeper conversations with the founders and the people you'd work alongside on vision, pace, judgment, and how you operate. We go both directions on fit.\n\nPaid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Work with the team on a real, scoped piece of the product, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you ship. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.\n\nDecision: We move fast after the trial.\n\n\n\nIf you want to build the system that turns web data into something a developer can call and a source can get paid for, you should join us.\n\n👉 Apply now."},{"id":"fe538f2b-7dd5-4d8d-941e-f8014a911652","title":"Cloud DevOps Engineer","department":"Engineering Team","team":"Engineering Team","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"San Francisco HQ; Toronto Hub","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-08-20T22:04:31.381+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Hybrid","address":{"postalAddress":{}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/fe538f2b-7dd5-4d8d-941e-f8014a911652","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/fe538f2b-7dd5-4d8d-941e-f8014a911652/application","descriptionHtml":"You'll build the cloud infrastructure that turns the open web into data: the platform beneath Firecrawl's crawling, scraping, and search products.

We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Build and ship developer-facing document-parsing features from idea to production
Own the reliability and quality of parsed output across PDFs, Word docs, spreadsheets, and more, including the messy scanned and mixed-format files that break traditional parsers
Turn hard, ambiguous problems (layout detection, table structure, reading order, OCR routing) into clean APIs developers love to use
Work directly with the engineering team on the roadmap and the tradeoffs behind it
Dogfood the product, read the GitHub issues, and let real developer pain drive what you build
You've built and shipped developer-facing product that people actually used
You care about developer experience like a designer cares about pixels: latency, output schema, docs, the whole feel of it
You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped features
You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
Someone who needs a fully-specced ticket to start
A strong backend engineer who's indifferent to how the product feels to use
Someone who optimizes for process over shipping
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto), based on impact, not tenure

Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you

Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife
Full coverage, no red tape: Extended health, dental, and vision through Manulife (Diamond, the top tier), 100% employer-paid for you, your partner, and your kids
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid life, AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care: Dialogue Premium, so you can see a doctor or nurse from your couch, any hour
Mental health: Talkspace Elite, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner

SF HQ perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, intense ping pong, and peak startup energy
E-Bike transportation: A loaner electric bike to get you around the city, on us
Toronto Hub perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, glass-walled views down University Avenue, and a home base steps from Union Station
Transit, covered: A PRESTO card loaded for GO Transit, subway, and streetcar, plus station parking if you drive to the train. Winter-proof, on us
Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Show us what you've shipped: products, features, APIs developers actually used. We care about what you've built, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical Chat (~45 min): We'll dig into a real problem from our world (pulling reliable structured data out of a hostile PDF, or designing a parsing API developers love) and talk through how you'd approach it. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you memorized the answer.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Work with the team on a real, scoped piece of the product, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you ship. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to build the products that turn the chaos of documents and the web into something developers and agents can actually use, you should join us.

","descriptionPlain":"PRODUCT ENGINEER - PARSE\n\n\n\nYou'll build the endpoint developers reach for when they need to turn documents (PDFs, Word docs, spreadsheets, and more) into clean, layout-aware data an AI can actually use. Parse takes a local or non-public file and returns LLM-ready markdown or structured JSON in a single call, with tables, headings, footnotes, and reading order preserved. This is hands-on product engineering at the core of what Firecrawl does: shipping the document-parsing features that thousands of developers hit every day, owning them from idea to production, and obsessing over the details that make an API a joy to build on. You'll ship real product from day one, not tickets in a backlog.\n\n \n\nSalary Range: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto)\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity.

Show us what you've built: enterprise security capabilities, multi-cloud or hybrid infrastructure, integrations that passed a real security review. We care about what you've shipped, not where you went to school.\n\nIntro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.\n\nTechnical Chat (~45 min): We'll dig into a real enterprise requirement from our world, the kind a security review or a big contract puts on the table, and talk through how you'd design and ship it. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you memorized the answer.\n\nFounder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.\n\nPaid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Work with the team on a real, scoped piece of the enterprise roadmap, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you ship. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.\n\nDecision: We move fast after the trial.\n\n\n\nIf building the infrastructure the world's biggest companies trust with their web data sounds like your kind of problem, you should join us.\n\n👉 Apply now."},{"id":"84c209e5-d65c-4b27-b42f-c53507461acd","title":"Product Engineer - Agent","department":"Engineering Team","team":"Engineering Team","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"San Francisco HQ; Toronto Hub","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-08-29T20:49:25.918+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Hybrid","address":{"postalAddress":{}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/84c209e5-d65c-4b27-b42f-c53507461acd","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/84c209e5-d65c-4b27-b42f-c53507461acd/application","descriptionHtml":"You'll build the products developers and AI agents reach for when they need to take action on the web, not just read it.

Salary Range: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto)
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week.

Experience: 3+ years building and shipping developer-facing product
Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider work permit sponsorship case by case through our Toronto Hub.
Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world.

Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Build and ship developer-facing agent features from idea to production
Own the reliability and quality of agent behavior against a live, unpredictable web that constantly changes and fights back
Turn hard, ambiguous problems (multi-step navigation, action reliability, recovery from failure, keeping agents on task) into clean APIs developers love to use
Work directly with the engineering team on the roadmap and the tradeoffs behind it
Dogfood the product, read the GitHub issues, and let real developer pain drive what you build
You've built and shipped developer-facing product that people actually used
You care about developer experience like a designer cares about pixels: latency, output schema, docs, the whole feel of it
You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped features
You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
Someone who needs a fully-specced ticket to start
A strong backend engineer who's indifferent to how the product feels to use
Someone who optimizes for process over shipping
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto), based on impact, not tenure

They make the legal calls, you turn them into code, and you know the law well enough to push back and spot what they missed.\n\nYou’ll report to the General Counsel and work every day with our engineers.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $251,000–$276,000 USD/year\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nRequirements: You write production code today, and you have a real legal background: a JD, or years working inside a law firm or an in-house legal team. Bar admission is a plus.\n\nWork Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US. We also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT FIRECRAWL\n\nFirecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.\n\nIn September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.\n\nWe're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.\n\nThis is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.\n\n\n\n\nOUR VALUES\n\n - Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.\n\n - Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.\n\n - All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.\n\n - Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Build the legal team’s tools yourself: contract intake, redline and review agents, a clause library, and tracking for what we’ve promised each customer\n\n - Turn our lawyers’ advice into code. When counsel decides how we handle something, you make it run in the product and the pipelines, not sit in a memo\n\n - Work the hard web data questions with our counsel: terms of service, robots.txt, copyright, privacy, and the data providers that list on Alexandria. You do the research and the technical analysis. They make the call\n\n - Own the technical side of our legal commitments. Show that our systems do what our terms, DPAs, and policies say, in a way that holds up in a customer security review\n\n - Build the tools that let sales and ops handle routine paper without waiting on legal\n\n - Find legal risk in the product before it ships, and fix it with engineering rather than a list of no’s\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - You’re an engineer first. You’ve shipped production software people use: Python or TypeScript, APIs, data, and LLMs\n\n - You have a real legal background: a JD, or years inside a law firm or an in-house legal team. Bar admission is a plus\n\n - Maybe you were an engineer before law school, or you went to law school and ended up building. Either way, you’re fluent in both\n\n - You’re an AI super user. This is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have. You reach for AI to move faster by default\n\n - You turn vague legal questions into clear rules, and clear rules into systems\n\n - You’re a self-starter. Nobody is going to hand you a plan. You’ll build this function while running it\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - A lawyer who has never written code, or who only “works closely with engineers”\n\n - An engineer with no legal background\n\n - A compliance program manager who tracks controls in a spreadsheet\n\n - Someone who optimizes for process over shipping\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS & PERKS\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES\n\n - Salary that makes sense: $251,000–$276,000 USD/year, based on impact, not tenure\n\n - Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build\n\n - Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded).

We’ll talk about what you’ve been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you’re looking for in your next role.

We’ll take a real legal problem from our world and you’ll turn it into working code.\n\nLegal Chat (~45 min): A real legal question from our world, worked through with our counsel.

Time for your questions too.\n\nPaid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Work with the team on a real, scoped piece of the work, paid at a contractor rate. It’s the truest signal for both sides.

This is not a role where you review other people's paper and send back comments. You'll be across the table from counterparties yourself, sitting next to sales and BD while deals are live, and you'll help build the templates and playbooks that let the company move faster without taking on risk it shouldn't.
You'll work alongside the Senior Commercial & Product Counsel and report to the General Counsel on a legal team that's being built from scratch.

Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Draft and negotiate enterprise customer agreements, data-licensing deals, vendor contracts, NDAs, and partnership agreements
Be the legal partner sales and BD actually want in the room, not the one they route around
Advise on data rights, privacy, confidentiality, security, IP, indemnification, and limitations of liability
Work with product and engineering on data access and AI questions as they come up in deals
Help build and maintain the templates, playbooks, fallback positions, and approval thresholds that keep deals moving without a lawyer in every loop
Support the compliance programs and company policies the legal team is standing up
Spot the matters that need the GC, senior counsel, or outside counsel, and escalate them early and cleanly
Pick up whatever else the company needs legally as we grow, because early legal teams don't get to have narrow scopes
You've negotiated real technology agreements. Not reviewed them. Negotiated them, across the table, with a counterparty's counsel pushing back, and you've held the positions that mattered and conceded the ones that didn't
You can carry a deal on your own. You don't need someone to structure the negotiation for you or check every redline before it goes out. You take a matter and bring it to signature
You know exactly when to escalate. This role has real autonomy and that only works if you're good at telling routine from novel, and you flag the novel one early rather than after it's a problem
You give business advice, not legal cover. Our teams need a recommendation and a risk read they can act on, not a memo listing every possible exposure. If your default answer is no, this will be frustrating for both of us
You work well with non-lawyers. Most of your internal clients are engineers and salespeople. They'll trust you if you're fast, clear, and unpretentious
You're an AI super user. Non-negotiable. You should already be using AI heavily in your own practice, and you should want to push it further than anyone has taken it in this profession. We'll give you room to try things that don't have a precedent
Membership in good standing in at least one US state bar or Canadian provincial law society. Preferred: a J.D. from a T14 law school or comparable academic credentials, and prior experience at an Am Law 100 firm or a comparably sophisticated firm. Exposure to data licensing, privacy, IP, or data-access issues is a plus
A lawyer who runs commercial legal as a gatekeeping function and measures success by deals slowed down
Someone who needs a fully staffed team, a CLM platform, and defined process before they can be effective
A pure litigator or generalist looking to pivot into commercial work on the job
Someone who wants to stay in a specialty lane. This team is four people and the work is whatever comes in
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
If you're a strong lawyer looking for an interesting escape from BigLaw, this is the one. It won't be boring, and you'll build skills at the absolute frontier of AI and the legal profession.

Application Review: Send us your resume and a short note on why this excites you. Tell us about a deal you owned, what you fought for, and what you gave up.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. What you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for. Time for your questions too.
Case Chat (~45 min): We'll work through a real problem from our world, a data-licensing structure or an enterprise redline where the standard position doesn't fit, and talk through how you'd approach it. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you know the market term.
Redline Exercise (Paid, ~90 min): One scoped, realistic document. You mark it up and give us a short read on the two or three issues you'd actually escalate.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Decision: We move fast after the exercise.
If you want real ownership of commercial legal work at the infrastructure layer of AI, before anyone has written the playbook, you should join us.

We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Design and ship A/B tests across agent-facing surfaces (MCPs, CLIs, skills, APIs, documentation) to see how agents actually use Firecrawl
Turn experiment results into shipped product improvements, fast
Track emerging agent tools, models, and harnesses (Hermes, OpenClaw, and whatever's next) closely enough to know what they mean for us
Form hypotheses about how agents discover, interpret, and select tools and capabilities, then test them in production
Own the problem end to end, from question to shipped answer
Bring scientific rigor to product development without turning it into a research project
A track record of shipping high-quality products fast. Not prototypes, not decks
Comfort designing A/B tests, reading behavioral data, and acting on what it tells you
Familiarity with agent-facing surfaces: MCPs, CLIs, skills, APIs, documentation
You actively follow emerging AI tools, models, and harnesses. Hermes, OpenClaw, whatever's next
Genuine curiosity about how agents select tools, interpret capabilities, and interact with products
High agency. You can operate independently in a space that doesn't have a playbook yet
Often an ex-founder, early startup engineer, prolific open-source contributor, or someone with impressive public work
Someone looking for a pure research or data science role. This is a shipping job first
Someone who needs a mapped-out roadmap before they can move
Someone who treats experimentation as a report to write rather than a lever to pull
Someone excited by agents in theory who hasn't actually built for them
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto), based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner
EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian
401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you

Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife

Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical Chat (~45 min): We'll walk through something you've built and a real agent-experience problem from our world. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason and experiment, not whether you know the \"right\" answer going in.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Ship something real with the team, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you operate.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.

","descriptionPlain":"AGENT EXPERIENCE ENGINEER \n\n\n\nFirecrawl is looking for a high-agency, product-minded engineer with strong experimental and data instincts to own how agents discover, understand, and use Firecrawl. You'll ship fast, run rigorous A/B tests, and turn what you learn into a better product, for an audience that isn't human.\n\nThis is not a pure research or data science role. We want an engineer who brings scientific rigor to product development: forming hypotheses, running experiments, analyzing results, and shipping better agent experiences. Prior agent experience is valuable, but raw engineering ability, shipping velocity, and learning speed matter most.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto)\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 5+ years\n\nWork Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider work permit sponsorship case by case through our Toronto Hub.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT FIRECRAWL\n\nFirecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use.

Strategy, risk posture, policy, the team, and the outside firms. Every question about what we can crawl, license, build, sign, and ship comes to you first, and the founders will treat your read as the read.
Firecrawl sits on some of the least settled legal ground in technology. The rules for web data access, AI training data, copyright, and who owns machine-generated output are being written right now: in courtrooms, in regulators' offices, and in the deals companies like ours sign every week. Our General Counsel doesn't wait for that to settle. You'll set Firecrawl's positions, defend them to customers, counterparties, and regulators, and, where it counts, help shape where the law lands.
You'll report to our CEO, lead and finish building the legal team (commercial and product counsel, a technical compliance program lead shared with our CTO, and legal operations), own outside counsel and the legal budget, and sit next to the founders on financings, board matters, and every decision with a legal edge, which at Firecrawl is most of them.
Salary Range: $310,000–$392,000 USD/year
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). Hybrid, onsite 3+ days a week.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 12+ years of legal experience, including time running or helping run legal in-house at a venture-backed technology company
Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US. We also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US.
Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Set Firecrawl's legal strategy and risk posture, starting with the questions that define the company: what we crawl and how, how we treat robots.txt and publisher opt-outs, what data provenance we stand behind, and where the lines are on AI training data, agents acting on the web for users, and machine-generated output
Own the company's position on web data access and be ready to defend it anywhere: in customer diligence, across a negotiating table, in front of a regulator, or in court if it comes to that. Run disputes, demand letters, and pre-litigation strategy yourself, bringing in outside counsel when the matter warrants it
Run corporate and board legal: financings, governance, the cap table and equity plans, board materials and minutes, and the corporate hygiene that holds up under diligence. You'll act as corporate secretary
Set the commercial legal posture from the top: risk allocation, indemnity and data-provenance positions, fallback ladders, and approval thresholds. Your counsel run the deals. You decide what they can give
Lead privacy, security, and compliance strategy alongside our CTO: GDPR, CCPA, the EU AI Act and the state AI laws behind it, SOC 2 and the enterprise diligence machine, sanctions and export questions, and whether laws written for data brokers reach a company like ours
Steward our open source posture: license strategy, contributor terms, trademark and brand protection, and the line between the project and the product
Advise People and Operations on employment and contractor matters across every country we hire in: EOR and PEO structures, IP assignment that holds across borders, classification, and immigration as we grow into it
Build and lead the legal team: hire, level, and develop the lawyers and legal ops people under you, run outside counsel to a budget, and make legal a function engineers and salespeople route through by choice
Represent Firecrawl in the policy conversation on web data access and AI: industry coalitions, amicus opportunities, and direct engagement with regulators and legislators. Where the law is unsettled, we intend to have a hand in settling it
Cover everything else with a legal edge: insurance, government inquiries, communications review when something goes sideways, and the questions nobody has assigned yet. At our size the GC's scope is the whole company
You've run legal somewhere, or been the person who effectively did. GC, deputy GC, or the senior lawyer the founders actually called, at a venture-backed technology company. A first GC seat is fine if you've operated at that altitude and made calls you had to live with
You cover the full field. Corporate, financings, and governance on one side; commercial, product, data, and IP on the other. Deep in at least one, credible in all of them, and honest about where you'll lean on outside counsel
You have a real point of view on web data, AI, and copyright, and you can defend it. You've read the cases, you've watched the licensing market form, and you're not waiting for settled law to take a position
You give business advice, not legal cover. The founders will ask what you would do and expect an answer: a recommendation and a risk read they can act on, not a memo listing every possible exposure. If your default answer is no, this will be frustrating for both of us
You've been in the room when it went wrong. A demand letter, a regulator's inquiry, a deal that died on indemnity, a board meeting with bad news. Calm and clear under that is not a nice-to-have here
You lead lawyers and non-lawyers. You've built or run a small legal team, held outside counsel to a budget, and earned the trust of engineers and salespeople by being fast, clear, and unpretentious
You're an AI super user. Non-negotiable. You already use AI heavily in your own practice, you'll set the standard for the legal team, and you want to push it further than anyone has taken it in this profession
Membership in good standing in at least one US state bar, and either California bar membership or eligibility to register as in-house counsel in California. Preferred: a J.D. from a T14 law school or comparable academic credentials, training at an Am Law 100 firm or a comparably sophisticated firm, and in-house years at a company that scaled fast. Exposure to data licensing, privacy, IP, open source, or data-access disputes is a strong plus
A GC who runs legal as the department of no and measures success by risk avoided rather than by what the company shipped and signed
A law firm partner or senior associate who has never had to live inside a company with the consequences of their own advice
A pure corporate and securities lawyer, or a pure commercial lawyer. This seat needs both
Anyone who thinks \"can we crawl this\" is an obvious yes or an obvious no. Both are wrong, and the whole job lives in the gap
Someone who needs a full team, a CLM platform, and settled law before making a call
Someone who wants the title and the strategy but plans to send the hard, novel questions to outside counsel. Those questions are the job
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
If you've spent a career advising companies and want to run legal for one at the moment its questions are the most interesting in the profession, this is the one. Very few lawyers get to set the legal posture for infrastructure the AI industry runs on. It won't be boring.
Salary that makes sense: $310,000–$392,000 USD/year. Based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner
EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian
401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you
Pre-tax benefits: HSA, FSA, and commuter benefits to help your wallet out a bit
Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife
SF HQ perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, intense ping pong, and peak startup energy
E-Bike transportation: A loaner electric bike to get you around the city, on us
Application Review: Send us your resume and a short note on why this excites you. Tell us about a legal call you made that the business pushed back on, how you landed it, and whether time proved you right.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. What you've been running, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you want next. Time for your questions too.
Case Chat (~45 min): We'll work through a real problem from our world: a publisher's demand letter, a frontier lab's provenance requirements, a regulator's question nobody has answered yet. How you'd set the company's position, what you'd tell the founders, and what you'd refuse to sign. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you know the market term.
Strategy Exercise (Paid, ~2 hours): One scoped, realistic scenario. You write the memo you'd hand the founders: your recommendation, the exposure, and what you'd do in your first 30 days. Keep it short. We'll read every word.
Founder Chats (~30 min each): Time with each of our founders on culture, pace, ownership, and how you'd work together. Time for your questions too.
References: We'll want to talk to a founder or CEO you've advised and to someone who sat across the table from you.
Decision: We move fast after references.
If you want to run legal for the infrastructure layer of AI, and set the positions before anyone has written the playbook, you should join us.

Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US or Canada. In the US, we also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US. For Canada, we’ll consider work permit sponsorship case by case through our Toronto Hub.
Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Reverse engineer detection: Research how modern websites detect and challenge automated traffic, and take apart those mechanisms and challenge flows
Find the signals: Identify the browser, device, network, and behavioral signals that separate automated access from human traffic
Replicate and harden: Reproduce those signals synthetically in authorized test environments to validate and harden our approaches
Turn research into production: Build the automation, diagnostic, and monitoring tools that keep scrape reliability high as the web shifts
Own scrape success rate: Measure it, explain regressions, and ship the fixes
Ship fleet-wide: Work with platform engineers to roll improvements out across the crawling fleet at scale
Languages: Strong JavaScript/TypeScript and/or Python, and comfortable picking up whatever a problem demands
Browser internals: Real understanding of rendering, JS engines, headless automation (CDP, Playwright, Puppeteer), and where automated browsers differ from real ones
Network fundamentals: Solid grasp of HTTP/TLS, proxies, and browser and device fingerprinting
Reverse-engineering instincts: You can read minified, obfuscated code and figure out what it's actually checking
Research with a shipping habit: You go deep on how something works, then land the fix in production, not just a writeup
Nice to have: Deobfuscating JavaScript and VM-based obfuscation, network-level fingerprinting (TLS/HTTP2 signatures, JA3/JA4), running large browser or proxy fleets in production, or prior work at a scraping, web data, security research, or automation company
Needs a spec: Someone who needs a fully specced ticket to start
Narrow lane: Someone who wants to specialize narrowly and hand off everything else
Process first: Someone who optimizes for process over shipping
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
Salary that makes sense: $235,000–$260,000 USD/year (SF) / $217,000–$233,000 CAD/year (Toronto), based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner
EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian
401(k) plan: Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you
Pre-tax benefits: HSA, FSA, and commuter benefits to help your wallet out a bit
Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife
Full coverage, no red tape: Extended health, dental, and vision through Manulife (Diamond, the top tier), 100% employer-paid for you, your partner, and your kids
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid life, AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care: Dialogue Premium, so you can see a doctor or nurse from your couch, any hour
Mental health: Talkspace Elite, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule

Toronto Hub perks: Snacks, drinks, team lunches, glass-walled views down University Avenue, and a home base steps from Union Station
Transit, covered: A PRESTO card loaded for GO Transit, subway, and streetcar, plus station parking if you drive to the train. Winter-proof, on us
Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Show us what you've taken apart: automation you've built, detection systems you've analyzed, gnarly debugging stories. We care about what you've shipped, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. What you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical Chat (~45 min): We'll dig into a real problem from our world: why a page loads in a real browser but fails under automation, how a challenge flow decides what it's talking to, or debugging a sudden drop in scrape success. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you memorized the answer.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Work with the team on a real, scoped piece of the product, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides: you see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you ship. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to understand the web more deeply than the people trying to keep you out of it, you should join us.

","descriptionPlain":"WEB AUTOMATION ENGINEER\n\n\n\nYou'll keep Firecrawl connected to the open web.

Design and run head-to-head benchmarks of data providers against verified ground truth. For example:
Apollo vs. FullEnrich vs. DataLegion on company details.
FullEnrich vs. DataLegion on finding the right person and their current employer and title.
Built In vs. ZipRecruiter on relevant, fresh, non-duplicate job listings.
Build and maintain the test datasets and ground truth, and keep them from going stale or leaking.
Own the automated harness and the weekly benchmark release. Every run has to be reproducible, versioned, and defensible.
Measure what buyers actually care about: accuracy, coverage, freshness, speed, and cost.
Work with marketing to ship public leaderboard pages that are useful and hold up under scrutiny.
Close the loop into Alexandria so benchmark results change which provider gets called for what.
Keep expanding the categories we benchmark, inside Alexandria and beyond it.
You've shipped evals or benchmarks, and you can explain exactly why your results were trustworthy.
You've done this somewhere that matters: a frontier lab, a data company like Scale, Surge, micro1 or Mercor, a third-party benchmark org, or a public benchmark project. OSS contributors very welcome.
You're strong in Python and API integrations, and comfortable with messy vendor APIs, rate limits, and inconsistent schemas.
You know how to build test sets and scoring methods: sampling, labeling, inter-rater agreement, and when to trust an LLM judge and when not to.
You use AI heavily and keep upgrading your own workflow. You ship without waiting for instructions.
You write findings clearly for engineers, marketers, and the vendors on the other side of the leaderboard.
Someone who wants to run benchmarks someone else designed.
Someone who picks the metric that makes the story look good. Our numbers have to survive the vendors who lose.
A pure researcher who won't build the harness, or a pure engineer who won't think hard about methodology.
Someone who needs a fully specced ticket, or a quarter, to ship the first result.

For example:\n \n - Apollo vs. FullEnrich vs. DataLegion on company details.\n \n - FullEnrich vs. DataLegion on finding the right person and their current employer and title.\n \n - Built In vs. ZipRecruiter on relevant, fresh, non-duplicate job listings.\n\n - Build and maintain the test datasets and ground truth, and keep them from going stale or leaking.\n\n - Own the automated harness and the weekly benchmark release. Every run has to be reproducible, versioned, and defensible.\n\n - Measure what buyers actually care about: accuracy, coverage, freshness, speed, and cost.\n\n - Work with marketing to ship public leaderboard pages that are useful and hold up under scrutiny.\n\n - Close the loop into Alexandria so benchmark results change which provider gets called for what.\n\n - Keep expanding the categories we benchmark, inside Alexandria and beyond it.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - You've shipped evals or benchmarks, and you can explain exactly why your results were trustworthy.\n\n - You've done this somewhere that matters: a frontier lab, a data company like Scale, Surge, micro1 or Mercor, a third-party benchmark org, or a public benchmark project. OSS contributors very welcome.\n\n - You're strong in Python and API integrations, and comfortable with messy vendor APIs, rate limits, and inconsistent schemas.\n\n - You know how to build test sets and scoring methods: sampling, labeling, inter-rater agreement, and when to trust an LLM judge and when not to.\n\n - You use AI heavily and keep upgrading your own workflow. You ship without waiting for instructions.\n\n - You write findings clearly for engineers, marketers, and the vendors on the other side of the leaderboard.\n \n \n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Someone who wants to run benchmarks someone else designed.\n\n - Someone who picks the metric that makes the story look good. Our numbers have to survive the vendors who lose.\n\n - A pure researcher who won't build the harness, or a pure engineer who won't think hard about methodology.\n\n - Someone who needs a fully specced ticket, or a quarter, to ship the first result.\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever.

We care about what you've shipped, not where you went to school.\n\n 2. Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other. We'll cover what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you want next. Time for your questions too.\n\n 3. Technical Chat (~45 min): A real problem from our world: design a benchmark that decides whether FullEnrich or DataLegion finds the right person's current title. We'll cover where the ground truth comes from and how you'd defend the result to the vendor who loses. Come ready to think out loud.\n\n 4. Workflow Chat (~30 min): Show us how you actually work: your AI tools, your setup, and a recent thing you shipped faster than you would have a year ago.\n\n 5. Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.\n\n 6. Paid Work Trial (~40 hours): Ship a small benchmark end to end on a real provider category, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.\n\n 7. Decision: We move fast after the trial.\n\n\n\nIf you want to be the person the whole market checks before picking a data provider, you should join us.\n\n👉 Apply now."},{"id":"cbb5e542-1446-41d9-975b-7b2395728eea","title":"AI Enablement Lead","department":"Operations Team","team":"Operations Team","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"San Francisco, CA","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-10-05T16:37:36.923+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":true,"workplaceType":"Hybrid","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressRegion":"","addressLocality":""}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/cbb5e542-1446-41d9-975b-7b2395728eea","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/cbb5e542-1446-41d9-975b-7b2395728eea/application","descriptionHtml":"Firecrawl is looking for someone to own how we use AI internally. The thesis behind the role: a company's output used to scale with headcount, and ours scales with tokens, meaning how much compute we run and how well we turn it into shipped work. A small team that does this well operates like one several times its size, and the ceiling on that isn't budget, it's adoption. You'll set up and maintain the agent harnesses, configs, and model routing every team runs on, revenue first, get the people who barely use agents onto them, and work straight from our token spend data to find who's burning it without output and who isn't using enough.
Most of this work is people, not config. Getting someone to hand real work to an agent means asking them to change how they've worked for years, with tools that feel unfamiliar and sometimes threatening. You'll need EQ as much as technical depth: reading who's stuck and why, meeting people where they are, and staying with them until it sticks. You'll still live in the tools yourself, write the code when the harness falls short, and teach by showing. You'll be measured by who's using agents well now who wasn't before.

Firecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Own the internal AI stack: the agent harnesses, configs, shared skills, and model routing every team uses. Set them up, keep them sharp, and ship changes as the tools change
Start with the revenue team. Learn how they actually work, find the jobs an agent should be doing, and get them running on it, then go team by team
Bring people who barely use agents along. Sit with them, build their first real workflow together, handle the skepticism and the \"I'm faster doing it myself\" honestly, and stay on it until it sticks
Work from our token spend data. Find who's burning tokens without output and who isn't using enough, then fix both. The second problem is usually the bigger one
Make cost per useful token a number we manage: model choice, routing, caching, and cutting the workflows that don't pay for themselves
Explain the why, over and over. Help every team understand what scaling with tokens means for their work and why it matters, in their language, not yours
Build what's missing in code (MCP servers, hooks, evals, internal tooling), and track what's changing in Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and whatever's next so we're working the new way the same week
You get why scaling with tokens matters, and you can explain it to a salesperson, a lawyer, and an engineer in words each of them would use. A team that spends more on inference and ships more is winning. A team that spends more and doesn't isn't. You know how to tell the two apart
You've rolled out coding agents or AI tooling across a team and can show what changed after. An adoption, not a pilot
EQ. You can tell the difference between someone who's resisting and someone who's scared, and you know that most \"I don't have time to learn this\" is the second one. You bring people along without making them feel behind
An engineer or a very technical operator who lives in Claude Code, Cursor, or Codex and writes code. When the harness is missing something, you build it
You think about cost per useful token, and you've looked at spend data and changed something because of it
You teach by showing. Pairing for an hour beats writing a guide nobody reads
AI-pilled, bias to action, all in. You believe this is how work gets done now and you're already operating that way
Often an ex-founder, an early startup engineer, or the person who led your last team through a tooling change nobody wanted and made it stick
Prompt-tips influencers. A following built on \"10 prompts that will change your life\" isn't a track record
Change-management consultants. You should be good at change management. You should not need a framework, a steering committee, or a deck to do it. We need the adoption, done by you, in the room
IT admins. This isn't seat provisioning and license management
Someone who wants to tell the team how to use AI without using it harder than anyone else here
Someone who thinks the hard part is the tooling. The hard part is people
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.

Technical Chat (~45 min): We'll walk through how you set up agents for a team you've worked with, how you got the holdouts on board, and a real problem from our world: a team that isn't using agents yet, or a spend line that isn't turning into work. Come ready to think out loud, and ready to explain why any of this matters to someone who doesn't care yet. We care how you reason, not whether you know the \"right\" answer going in.

Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Own the model and the margin: Build the operating model the founders and board actually use: revenue, margin, headcount, and cash. If the numbers say something we don't want to hear, you say it first
Run pricing economics: Credits, prepaid and pay-as-you-go, plans, enterprise contracts, and discount authority, decided with product and revenue
Deploy the Series B and co-pilot the next raise: Decide how fast we spend and on what. Build the model, data room, and diligence with the CEO so the next round runs better than the last
Treat tokens as a P&L line: Inference is both our cost of goods and how we get work done. Know what it costs, what it returns, and where the next dollar of compute goes
Build the finance function: Close and revenue recognition for a usage-based business, audit, board and investor reporting, tax, treasury, spend, and equity admin. Table stakes: run them well and make them as automated as any finance team you've seen. Hire a controller and an FP&A lead when the time is right
You're an AI super user: Non-negotiable. You run AI across your own work today and have opinions about where it fails
You've run finance and owned a balance sheet: CFO or VP Finance owning the whole function at a venture-backed company, through a priced round and the growth after it
You're hands-on: You build the model yourself, you can close the books if you have to, and you work without a team on day one
You've been the CEO's copilot on a fundraise: The model, the data room, the diligence, and a straight read on terms
You think from first principles about scaling a company in a new era: Usage-based revenue, real cost of goods, compute as both cost and leverage. The old SaaS playbook doesn't carry over, and you know why
The fundraising CFO: Great in the data room, hazy on where last month's margin went
The pure controller: Brilliant on the close, uninterested in the capital strategy, board, and pricing work
The budget cop: Measures success in spend blocked and deals slowed
The big-company operator: Has never built a model from a blank sheet or hired the first person on a team
The SaaS-only thinker: Believes usage-based revenue is seat-based SaaS with variable invoices
The compute skeptic: Treats inference spend as a line to cut rather than a line to understand. Here it's how we make money and how we get work done
The waiter: Needs a full team, an ERP, and a closed quarter before giving the founders a number
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.
If you've spent a career making other companies' numbers work and want to build finance for one at the moment its economics are the hardest and most interesting in AI infrastructure, this is the one. It won't be boring.
Salary that makes sense: $400,000–$453,000 USD/year, based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build
Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded). Take the time you need to recharge
Parental leave: 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents
Wellness stipend: $100 USD/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development: Expense up to $1,000 USD/year toward anything that helps you grow professionally
Team offsites: A change of scenery, minus the trust falls
Sabbatical: 3 paid months off after 4 years, do something fun and new
Full coverage, no red tape: Medical, dental, and vision (100% for employees, 50% for partner and kids). No weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance: Employer-paid basic life and AD&D, short-term disability, and long-term disability. Coverage for life's curveballs
Virtual care and a health guide: Teladoc for the couch doctor visit, plus Rightway to answer coverage questions and fight billing errors for you
Mental health: Talkspace, therapy and psychiatry on your schedule
Fertility and family building: Carrot, covering you and your partner
EAP: Free confidential counseling, legal and financial consults, and online will prep through Guardian

Application Review: Send us your resume and a short note on why this excites you. Tell us about a call you made with the numbers that the founders or board didn't want to hear, how you delivered it, and what happened next.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. What you've been running, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you want next. Time for your questions too.
Case Chat (~45 min): We'll work through a real problem from our world: a pricing change where cost per request is moving underneath it, a margin question with no clean answer, or a capital deployment tradeoff between headcount and infrastructure. How you'd reason, what you'd measure, and what you'd tell the founders. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you know the market multiple.
Modeling Exercise (Paid, ~3 hours): One scoped, anonymized dataset. You build the analysis and write the one-page read you'd hand the founders: what the numbers say, what you'd do about it, and what you'd want to know next. Keep it short. We'll read every word.
Founder Chats (~30 min each): Time with each of our founders on culture, pace, ownership, and how you'd work together. Time for your questions too.
References: We'll want to talk to a CEO you've served, a board member or investor who saw your board work, and someone who reported to you.
Decision: We move fast after references.
If you want to own the economics of the infrastructure layer of AI, and build finance for a company nobody has written the playbook for, you should join us.

","descriptionPlain":"CHIEF FINANCIAL OFFICER\n\n \n\nYou'll be Firecrawl's first CFO. Finance here isn't a reporting function that closes the books and forecasts what engineering already decided. It sits inside the product: our pricing is usage-based, our cost of goods moves with the web itself, and the gap between the two is the most important number in the company. You'll own that number and everything that feeds it.\n\nWe just closed a $75M Series B, launched our second product, Alexandria, and are hiring at a pace that will nearly double the team. Finance got us here running lean, the way a company our size should. The next stage needs a function built for it: accounting and controls, FP&A, tax and treasury, billing and revenue recognition, capital strategy, and the board relationship, built without slowing the company down.\n\nYou'll report to our CEO, sit with the founders on every decision that costs money or makes it, partner with our General Counsel and Chief of Staff on the company's operating spine, and own how we deploy the capital we just raised and help raise the round after it.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $400,000–$453,000 USD/year\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ).

We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US.\n\n\n\n\nABOUT FIRECRAWL\n\nFirecrawl is the easiest way to turn the web into data AI agents can use. One API call converts any URL into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. It's the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.\n\nIn September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world.

It gives AI agents one way to discover sources, see what they hold, and retrieve from them: official data providers, publishers, research and government indexes, and the live web. The people who supply that knowledge get paid based on agent demand. Alexandria is three weeks old, and agents are already asking for hundreds of sources nobody has brought online yet.
The supply side is a team of one today. You'll be the first hire on data partnerships, working with the Head of Data Partnerships and the Alexandria engineers. This is supply-side deal work, not channel partnerships and not reselling. You own two motions: the providers who come to us, and the long tail of sources agents want, taken from first conversation to a listing agents call every day.

All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Run the inbound queue. Own the Alexandria waitlist and the partnerships inbox. For each one: is it supply at all, which partner type, how many agents want it, who holds the rights, and is a partnership the right way to bring it online. Decide what becomes a deal, what waits, and what we pass on, and say why.
Call the technical evaluations. Decide when a source needs one before signature, and run it with the Alexandria engineers when it does.
Work the outbound target map by agent demand. Our usage data says which sources agents request and can't get. That decides who you go after first.
Run outreach at volume, with research behind every touch. Reach the partnership owner, not the sales desk. Keep a real pipeline: every deal in a named state, with an owner and a next step.
Qualify fast. Who holds the rights, whether redistribution is on the table, and whether there's a deal at all, before anyone spends a call on it.
Pitch principal to principal. Paid, attributed access to agent demand they can't reach on their own.
Negotiate the deal. Commercial terms, attribution, usage and redistribution rights, pilot scope. The framework says what's normally on the table; you decide what to trade, what to hold, and when a provider is worth going outside it, bringing in the Head and counsel when it is.
Run provider calls with the questions that matter. Precedent, the gate to yes, rights scope, carve-outs, reporting shape, pilot scope, and the signing path.
Hand off clean. Every signed provider lands with the Alexandria product engineer carrying everything the listing needs: what the source holds, the endpoints or corpus, the commercial terms, what the terms let the gating enforce, and the provider's technical contact.
Keep the board honest. Economics and rights captured on every deal past the first conversation, so the live and signed counts mean what they say.
Sit in on flagship deals. The Head of Data Partnerships carries the big publisher deals; you'll be in the room.
Feed the product. Bring back what the deals teach: where the catalog has gaps, what makes a source worth paying for, which objections keep recurring, and what providers need from us to say yes.
Write the playbook as you go. The method we have comes from a handful of deals. You'll find where it's wrong. Fixing it is the job, not a favor.
Know the market. Track data licensing and agent tooling closely enough to know where the next hundred sources come from. Spend as much time inside the catalog and the MCP as you do on calls.
A pipeline operator. You've sourced, pitched, and signed deals yourself, cold, and you've cleared an inbound queue without letting it rot. You keep a real CRM and can show the numbers on what converted and what didn't.
Comfortable with terms. You can talk price and structure on a first call without legal in the room. You know which points are yours to trade and which go upstairs.
AI-native. Agents and coding tools are part of how you work every day. You expect the pipeline, the research, and the follow-up to run with them, not around them.
Urgency is your default setting. You follow up the same day, close loops, and don't wait for perfect information to send the next touch.
Curious about the market. You read a provider's docs, pricing page, and public licensing record before the first email, and you know who else they've signed with.
A clear communicator. Crisp emails, tight calls, honest status updates. You say what's blocked and what's next.
A background that maps. Provider or data partnerships at a data marketplace or API aggregator. Early BD at a devtools, data, or API company. Building the supply side of a marketplace from the first listing. Content or data licensing, ready for startup speed. A technical BDR who grew into closing your own deals.
Channel, reseller, or alliance managers from enterprise SaaS. This is supply-side deal work, not co-marketing.
Relationship-only BD who can't open a terminal or read an API reference.
Someone who needs legal to write every term before they can talk price.
Corp dev or M&A profiles. We're signing hundreds of providers, not acquiring one.
Someone who has only managed inbound partners and never built a pipeline cold.
Someone excited by AI in theory who hasn't actually used agents to do their job.
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.

Application Review: Send us your resume and two or three deals you personally sourced and closed, with what you owned in each. We care about what you've actually signed, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Partnerships Deep Dive (~45 min): Walk us through a deal you built from cold outreach to signature, including the terms you fought for and the one you gave up. Then a live scenario: which providers would you go after first for Alexandria, and how would you get them to yes? We care how you reason and prioritize, not whether you know the \"right\" answer going in.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Build a real target provider map, run real outreach, and bring at least one provider to terms with the team, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you operate.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to build the library every AI agent reads from, one provider at a time, you should join us.

That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.\n\n\n\n\nOUR VALUES\n\n - Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.\n\n - Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.\n\n - All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.\n\n - Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Run the inbound queue. Own the Alexandria waitlist and the partnerships inbox. For each one: is it supply at all, which partner type, how many agents want it, who holds the rights, and is a partnership the right way to bring it online. Decide what becomes a deal, what waits, and what we pass on, and say why.\n\n - Call the technical evaluations. Decide when a source needs one before signature, and run it with the Alexandria engineers when it does.\n\n - Work the outbound target map by agent demand. Our usage data says which sources agents request and can't get. That decides who you go after first.\n\n - Run outreach at volume, with research behind every touch. Reach the partnership owner, not the sales desk. Keep a real pipeline: every deal in a named state, with an owner and a next step.\n\n - Qualify fast. Who holds the rights, whether redistribution is on the table, and whether there's a deal at all, before anyone spends a call on it.\n\n - Pitch principal to principal. Paid, attributed access to agent demand they can't reach on their own.\n\n - Negotiate the deal. Commercial terms, attribution, usage and redistribution rights, pilot scope. The framework says what's normally on the table; you decide what to trade, what to hold, and when a provider is worth going outside it, bringing in the Head and counsel when it is.\n\n - Run provider calls with the questions that matter. Precedent, the gate to yes, rights scope, carve-outs, reporting shape, pilot scope, and the signing path.\n\n - Hand off clean. Every signed provider lands with the Alexandria product engineer carrying everything the listing needs: what the source holds, the endpoints or corpus, the commercial terms, what the terms let the gating enforce, and the provider's technical contact.\n\n - Keep the board honest. Economics and rights captured on every deal past the first conversation, so the live and signed counts mean what they say.\n\n - Sit in on flagship deals. The Head of Data Partnerships carries the big publisher deals; you'll be in the room.\n\n - Feed the product. Bring back what the deals teach: where the catalog has gaps, what makes a source worth paying for, which objections keep recurring, and what providers need from us to say yes.\n\n - Write the playbook as you go. The method we have comes from a handful of deals. You'll find where it's wrong. Fixing it is the job, not a favor.\n\n - Know the market. Track data licensing and agent tooling closely enough to know where the next hundred sources come from. Spend as much time inside the catalog and the MCP as you do on calls.\n \n \n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - A pipeline operator. You've sourced, pitched, and signed deals yourself, cold, and you've cleared an inbound queue without letting it rot. You keep a real CRM and can show the numbers on what converted and what didn't.\n\n - Comfortable with terms. You can talk price and structure on a first call without legal in the room. You know which points are yours to trade and which go upstairs.\n\n - AI-native. Agents and coding tools are part of how you work every day. You expect the pipeline, the research, and the follow-up to run with them, not around them.\n\n - Urgency is your default setting. You follow up the same day, close loops, and don't wait for perfect information to send the next touch.\n\n - Curious about the market. You read a provider's docs, pricing page, and public licensing record before the first email, and you know who else they've signed with.\n\n - A clear communicator. Crisp emails, tight calls, honest status updates. You say what's blocked and what's next.\n\n - A background that maps. Provider or data partnerships at a data marketplace or API aggregator. Early BD at a devtools, data, or API company. Building the supply side of a marketplace from the first listing. Content or data licensing, ready for startup speed. A technical BDR who grew into closing your own deals.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Channel, reseller, or alliance managers from enterprise SaaS. This is supply-side deal work, not co-marketing.\n\n - Relationship-only BD who can't open a terminal or read an API reference.\n\n - Someone who needs legal to write every term before they can talk price.\n\n - Corp dev or M&A profiles. We're signing hundreds of providers, not acquiring one.\n\n - Someone who has only managed inbound partners and never built a pipeline cold.\n\n - Someone excited by AI in theory who hasn't actually used agents to do their job.\n\n\n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS & PERKS\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES\n\n - Salary that makes sense: $174,000–$199,000 USD/year, adjusted fairly for location, based on impact, not tenure\n\n - Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build\n\n - Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded).

Operations runs the events. You run what they're for: you decide which accounts need to be in which room, get them there, hold your own technically once they arrive, and turn the conversations into qualified pipeline the pods can close. This is a pipeline seat that runs on events, not an events seat that reports on attendance. If you've done field marketing or developer relations, this is that job on the Deployment team, with a revenue scoreboard. You'll report to our VP of Deployment, and you're measured on the opportunities credited to you from the rooms you work, not on how many people showed up.
Salary Range: $174,000 to $235,000 USD/year OTE
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). On-site when you're not in the field. Travel up to 50 percent for events, with evenings when the room calls for it.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 5+ years in roles that put you in rooms with developers (field or developer marketing, developer relations, community, solutions, or a technical seat with a pull toward the commercial side), or a body of work that makes the case. Either way, you can call an API and show someone what it did
Work Authorization: Open to candidates already authorized to work in the US. We also support H-1B transfers, F-1 OPT and STEM OPT, TN (Canada and Mexico), and E-3 (Australia). We’re not able to sponsor new H-1B visas for candidates outside the US.
Firecrawl is s a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight, working out of SF HQ and our new Toronto Hub. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
Bias to action: We move fast, ship hard, and don’t wait to be told.
Realistic about AI: We’re clear-eyed about what AI can and can’t do, and we keep pushing to use it where it actually works.
All in: The next few years matter a lot, and we’re all in for them.
Human connection: As intelligence gets cheaper, relationships with customers, partners, and each other matter more.
Firecrawl already has a field motion. We host curated dinners for AI researchers at model labs, run a monthly community series at SF HQ, and show up at the conferences our buyers attend. Operations owns that program as a whole: the calendar, the production, and the orchestration across teams. The pods, each owned by a Forward Deployed Engineer with a Deployment Growth Engineer building pipeline into it, close what the field produces.
This role is Deployment's seat in that system. It decides which accounts need to be in which rooms, curates the guest lists for the revenue rooms, holds the table technically, and owns the follow-through until the pod's FDE takes the deal. It sits outside the pods so it can serve all of them, and every deal it sources goes to the pod whose ICP the account is in.
The Deployment team is small and technical. Every teammate can run the product, read the code, and talk to a customer, and this seat is no exception. This is the first dedicated field seat. Start by owning Deployment's ask for one region, build the revenue side of the program, then lead it as we add pods and cities.
Bring the Accounts to the Calendar. Each quarter, hand Operations the rooms Deployment needs: the ICPs and target accounts each one reaches, the format that fits them (a dinner, a workshop, a meeting block at a conference, a hackathon), and the credited-opportunity target behind it. Operations owns the calendar, the budget, and the production. You make the case for the rooms with pipeline math, and you work the ones they run.
Before an invitation goes out, every revenue room has a target list, a success metric, a teammate who owns the follow-up, and a conversion plan.
Curate the Room. Build the guest lists for the revenue rooms from the ICP map, the pods' target accounts, and the signup base, using the AI-assembled customer dossiers and the warehouse to find the right people, not just the right logos.
Run the invitation outreach in Firecrawl's voice through our outbound stack, and get replies to a yes. Hand Operations the list for registration and seating, and brief the teammates who'll be in the room on who's coming, what they're building, and why they matter.
Be Technical at the Table. Demo the API live: one request, one page, clean Markdown or structured data, in front of a researcher or a CTO. Run hands-on blocks at workshops and hackathons that take a developer from first Scrape to first Search.
Answer the first layer of technical questions yourself (JavaScript rendering, anti-bot, output formats, MCP) and know when to pull in an engineer.
Turn the Room into Pipeline. Run the pre, during, and post-event loop with the pods: account targeting before, introductions during, and follow-up within 48 hours after. Every conversation lands as a contact and an activity in the warehouse.
Hand each qualified deal to the FDE of the pod whose ICP the account is in, and stay on the thread until the FDE owns it. Operations owns the venue, the vendors, and the run of show. You own Deployment's side: who's in the room and what happens after.
Measure and Feed the Playbook. Report every revenue room on attendee quality, credited opportunities, pipeline created, and cost per credited opportunity. Run the pipeline half of the retro with Operations and change the next ask.
Write Deployment's half of the events playbook (guest curation, the pre and post loop, follow-through, measurement) into the playbook Operations keeps, and work with Product Marketing and Developer Experience on the talks and content that make a room worth attending.
How You're Measured. Credited opportunities from the rooms you work: a deal you sourced that the FDE of the account's pod took as owner. That handoff is the quality gate. Behind it: the pipeline and signings those deals produce, and what each credited opportunity cost to create. Not badge scans, not attendance.
Technically Fluent. You can read code, call the API, and show a developer what one request did to a page. You don't need to have been an engineer, but you need to be credible in a room full of them, and you need to want to learn the product to the level where you can demo it cold. Developer relations, developer marketing, a solutions seat, or a technical seat at an API-based company are all ways people get here.
You've Filled Rooms with Developers. Meetups, hackathons, dinners, workshops, a talk track at a conference: you've run them, not just attended them, and you can show what happened after.
Pipeline-Minded. You think of an event as a list of accounts with a plan, not a date on a calendar. You know what a qualified opportunity is and you're comfortable being measured on the ones the pods credit to you.
AI-Native. You use AI tools daily as core work infrastructure. Our GTM stack assembles customer dossiers, activity timelines, and usage data; you'll use them to research accounts, write invitations, and brief the room faster than anyone expects.
Taste, and Programs Others Can Run. You know the difference between a room that works and one that doesn't, and you notice which one you're in before the guests do. You've also turned a one-off that worked into a recurring program with a playbook someone else could run. That's the path from this seat to leading the function.
Urgency and Follow-Through. Same-day follow-up. The event ends when the last conversation is in the warehouse with a next step, not when the last guest leaves.
Clear Communicator. Invitations people answer, briefs teammates read, and a talk you'd sit through yourself.
Backgrounds That Often Do Well
Developer advocates who want a revenue scoreboard for the rooms they already fill.
Field or developer marketers from API-first or infrastructure companies who are done counting badge scans.
Community managers who built a recurring series developers kept coming back to.
Technical founders who ran their own dinner circuit and conference calendar to sell.
Solutions engineers and sales engineers who were always the one at the booth.
Someone who wants to run the events program. Operations owns events end to end: the calendar, the production, and the orchestration across teams. You own Deployment's side of every room: who, why, and what happens after.
Badge-scan marketers. If your success metric is leads collected rather than opportunities credited, this isn't the fit.
Non-technical hosts. Rapport gets people to dinner. Relevance and technical credibility get them to a second meeting.
People who need a finished playbook. We're building the field program as we go. If you need an account list, a runbook, and a quarter already planned before you can start, you'll stall here.
You've worked at an API-first or developer infrastructure company and marketed to engineers.
You've done developer relations or advocacy and have talks, workshops, or a hackathon you ran end to end to show for it.
You have a network in the SF AI and developer scene: labs, accelerators, meetup organizers, the people who decide who speaks where.
You've built or run web scraping, crawling, or RAG pipelines and can talk about JavaScript rendering, anti-bot, and Markdown for LLMs from experience.
You've used Firecrawl, or reached it through Claude Code, Cursor, or n8n.
You're comfortable with Luma, Missive, SmartLead, Slack, and reading a SQL query against a warehouse.
You've written a talk abstract that got accepted, or a workshop that sold out.
We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.

Field Program Interview (~55 min): We'll hand you a real quarter: the ICPs, a set of target accounts, the events calendar Operations is running, and a city. You'll make Deployment's ask into that calendar (which accounts need which rooms), curate one guest list, and walk us through the follow-through. Then you'll run one live Firecrawl request and tell us what it did. We're looking for account judgment, taste, technical credibility, and speed.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Own Deployment's side of one real room with the team: curate the list, run the invitations, be at the table, and land the follow-through in the warehouse. Paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what the role actually feels like, and we see how you operate. We'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.

Invitations people answer, briefs teammates read, and a talk you'd sit through yourself.\n\nBackgrounds That Often Do Well\n\n - Developer advocates who want a revenue scoreboard for the rooms they already fill.\n\n - Field or developer marketers from API-first or infrastructure companies who are done counting badge scans.\n\n - Community managers who built a recurring series developers kept coming back to.\n\n - Technical founders who ran their own dinner circuit and conference calendar to sell.\n\n - Solutions engineers and sales engineers who were always the one at the booth.\n\n \n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\nSomeone who wants to run the events program. Operations owns events end to end: the calendar, the production, and the orchestration across teams. You own Deployment's side of every room: who, why, and what happens after.\n\nBadge-scan marketers. If your success metric is leads collected rather than opportunities credited, this isn't the fit.\n\nNon-technical hosts. Rapport gets people to dinner. Relevance and technical credibility get them to a second meeting.\n\nPeople who need a finished playbook. We're building the field program as we go. If you need an account list, a runbook, and a quarter already planned before you can start, you'll stall here.\n\n\n\n\nBONUS POINTS\n\n - You've worked at an API-first or developer infrastructure company and marketed to engineers.\n\n - You've done developer relations or advocacy and have talks, workshops, or a hackathon you ran end to end to show for it.\n\n - You have a network in the SF AI and developer scene: labs, accelerators, meetup organizers, the people who decide who speaks where.\n\n - You've built or run web scraping, crawling, or RAG pipelines and can talk about JavaScript rendering, anti-bot, and Markdown for LLMs from experience.\n\n - You've used Firecrawl, or reached it through Claude Code, Cursor, or n8n.\n\n - You're comfortable with Luma, Missive, SmartLead, Slack, and reading a SQL query against a warehouse.\n\n - You've written a talk abstract that got accepted, or a workshop that sold out.\n\n \n\n\nA NOTE ON PACE\n\nWe operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings, but this role probably isn't for you.\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS & PERKS\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES\n\n - Salary that makes sense: $160,000 to $220,000 USD/year OTE, based on impact, not tenure\n\n - Own a piece: Gain competitive equity in what you're helping build\n\n - Generous PTO: 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded).

We care about what you've done, not where you went to school.\n\nIntro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We'll talk about what you've been running, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.\n\nField Program Interview (~55 min): We'll hand you a real quarter: the ICPs, a set of target accounts, the events calendar Operations is running, and a city. You'll make Deployment's ask into that calendar (which accounts need which rooms), curate one guest list, and walk us through the follow-through. Then you'll run one live Firecrawl request and tell us what it did. We're looking for account judgment, taste, technical credibility, and speed.\n\nFounder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.\n\nPaid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Own Deployment's side of one real room with the team: curate the list, run the invitations, be at the table, and land the follow-through in the warehouse. Paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what the role actually feels like, and we see how you operate. We'll flex around your current commitments.\n\nDecision: We move fast after the trial.\n\n \n\nIf you want to fill the rooms where Firecrawl's next customers meet us, and be the one they remember, this is your shot.\n\n👉 Apply now."}],"apiVersion":"1"}
