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: $190,000–$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: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
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 revenue 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: $190,000–$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.

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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
Own Firecrawl's brand positioning end to end, from how we describe ourselves on the homepage to how we show up in competitive comparisons and LLM recommendations
Write and ship launch copy, product announcements, website updates, and social posts that actually land with a technical audience
Grow and manage our presence on X and LinkedIn. Not just posting, but building a community and a point of view
Run competitive analysis and translate it into messaging that differentiates us clearly, without marketing-speak
Partner directly with founders and product to align brand with roadmap and GTM priorities
Shape the content calendar and own the cadence of what goes out across every channel
Think about discoverability beyond SEO, including how LLMs surface and recommend tools like ours
You understand how developers think. Not just what they do, but how they evaluate tools, what they distrust, and what makes them share something with their team. You've built brand for a developer-facing product before and you have receipts
You're a writer first. The best brand work here will be in words: short-form, sharp, opinionated. You write copy that sounds like a smart person talking, not a marketing team hedging
You've driven organic growth. You've moved the needle on search visibility and social reach for a technical product, and the numbers hold up when we check them in Ahrefs
You're comfortable working directly with founders. No brand committee. No approval chain. You'll sit close to the people making product decisions and be expected to have a strong point of view on how we talk about what we're building
You think about LLMs as a distribution channel. You understand that discoverability now includes AI tools recommending products, and you know how to write for that world
Backgrounds that often do well: in-house brand at a developer tools or infra company, head of marketing at an early-stage API startup, founding marketer who owned everything from positioning to social.
Brand strategists who hand off execution to someone else
People who measure success in impressions and engagement rate over organic growth and real developer mindshare
Anyone who needs a brand playbook handed to them before they can start
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.

Own weekly signup pacing and growth across core acquisition channels. You're accountable to the number, not just the strategy
Own growth marketing strategy and execution end to end, including the call on which channels to scale and which to kill
Build a defensible signup mix across SEO/GEO, partnerships, brand, paid, and other durable channels that compound over time
Take over our paid ads program and the agency running it: audit it in your first month and decide to scale, fix, or end it
Inherit and keep building a real team (product marketing, SEO with hires coming under it, paid, and YouTube), hiring community-first as you grow it
Run cross-channel planning, prioritization, and execution across content, PMM, partnerships, brand, and distribution
Run weekly performance reviews: diagnose misses, identify what's working, and ship corrective action plans fast
Partner with product and engineering on activation, onboarding, and growth constraints that live outside marketing's direct control
Growth experience at an actual open source company. This is the hard requirement. Devtools or API-first alone isn't it. We need someone who's run growth where the product is open source and the audience found you through the repo
A true operator, not a strategist. You've owned a growth number before, not advised on one. You know the difference between a channel that's underperforming and a channel that needs to be killed, and you make that call without waiting for someone else to tell you
You can walk through experiments you've run, one that worked and one that didn't, with the numbers and what you changed after
Strong management instincts. You can run a team with a mix of channel specialists, create cadence, drive accountability, and keep everyone moving in the same direction without needing perfect information to do it
Fluent in modern distribution. SEO/GEO, content, paid, product launches, AI-native discovery. You have real operational depth across multiple channels, not just talking points
Good messaging taste. You're not a pure brand specialist, but you know what good looks like and can hold a high bar across everything that goes out without being the bottleneck
Comfortable working directly with founders. No committee, no approval layers. You'll have a direct line to Eric and be expected to push back, make calls, and own the outcome
Backgrounds that often do well: a growth or marketing manager who spent 2–3 years at an open source company and is ready to step up, an early marketing leader at a PLG SaaS startup, a founder-marketer who built a growth engine from scratch.

This is the hard requirement. Devtools or API-first alone isn't it. We need someone who's run growth where the product is open source and the audience found you through the repo\n\n - A true operator, not a strategist. You've owned a growth number before, not advised on one. You know the difference between a channel that's underperforming and a channel that needs to be killed, and you make that call without waiting for someone else to tell you\n\n - You can walk through experiments you've run, one that worked and one that didn't, with the numbers and what you changed after\n\n - Strong management instincts. You can run a team with a mix of channel specialists, create cadence, drive accountability, and keep everyone moving in the same direction without needing perfect information to do it\n\n - Fluent in modern distribution. SEO/GEO, content, paid, product launches, AI-native discovery. You have real operational depth across multiple channels, not just talking points\n\n - Good messaging taste. You're not a pure brand specialist, but you know what good looks like and can hold a high bar across everything that goes out without being the bottleneck\n\n - Comfortable working directly with founders. No committee, no approval layers. You'll have a direct line to Eric and be expected to push back, make calls, and own the outcome\n\nBackgrounds that often do well: a growth or marketing manager who spent 2–3 years at an open source company and is ready to step up, an early marketing leader at a PLG SaaS startup, a founder-marketer who built a growth engine from scratch.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Big-title VPs looking for a lateral move\n\n - Growth or marketing leaders who are great at strategy decks and weak on execution, or who treat execution as beneath them\n\n - People who need a fully-staffed team under them before they can move the needle\n\n - Anyone who mistakes activity (campaigns launched, emails sent, content published) for growth\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: $247,000–$323,000 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). 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).

Include one experiment that worked and one that didn't, with the numbers and what you changed after. Plus a quick note on what you'd want to understand about Firecrawl's current growth before you started.\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 built, how you run channel teams, and what you'd prioritize first. Time for your questions too.\n\nDeep Dive Chat (~60 min): Walk us through a real example: a time you ran a multi-channel growth operation and had to diagnose and recover from a miss, including a channel you decided to kill and why. Then a live scenario: how would you build a defensible signup mix for Firecrawl from where we are today? Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you have a rehearsed 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): Dig into a real growth problem with the team: audit our current channel mix, including the paid program, identify the biggest lever, and present a 30-day plan. Paid at a contractor rate. We evaluate on how you diagnose, how you prioritize, and whether your plan would actually move the number. 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 own the growth machine behind one of the fastest-growing developer tools on the internet, and you're ready to be accountable to the number, not just advise on it, this is your shot.\n\n👉 Apply now."},{"id":"fe6ab2c9-0528-4751-a6dd-67467e90fc0e","title":"Senior Growth Engineer","department":"Revenue and Success Team","team":"Revenue and Success Team","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"San Francisco, CA","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-07-13T01:37:23.063+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":false,"workplaceType":"OnSite","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressRegion":"","addressLocality":""}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/fe6ab2c9-0528-4751-a6dd-67467e90fc0e","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/fe6ab2c9-0528-4751-a6dd-67467e90fc0e/application","descriptionHtml":"You'll write the code that turns Firecrawl users into Firecrawl revenue.

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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.

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

","descriptionPlain":"RESEARCH ENGINEER - EVALS\n\n\n\nYou'll build the evaluation systems that tell us whether Firecrawl actually works. That sounds simple. It isn't. Our core promise, convert any URL into clean, structured, LLM-ready data reliably, is hard to measure rigorously across millions of different websites, formats, and edge cases. As the systems we're measuring get more complex, the question \"did that work?\" gets harder, not easier.\n\nThis isn't an eval role where you inherit a framework and run benchmarks. You'll design the metrics, build the pipelines, generate the datasets, and own the feedback loop from output quality back to model and product decisions. 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). On-site, five 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: Must be authorized to work in the United States or Canada. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now. 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\nWe hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.\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. 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: $250,000–$290,000 USD/year (SF) / $210,000–$224,000 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).

Every enterprise deal, data-licensing agreement, and vendor relationship that gets signed here will run through you, and every product and engineering team shipping into new legal territory will come to you first. This is not a role where you review other people's paper and send back comments. You'll negotiate directly with counterparties, sit next to sales and BD while deals are live, advise engineers on data access and AI questions nobody has settled yet, and build the templates, playbooks, and processes that let the company move faster without taking on risk it shouldn't.
This is the second legal hire at Firecrawl. The General Counsel sets legal strategy, risk posture, and policy. You make it real and make it run. The questions are genuinely novel: who owns AI-generated output, what data access is permissioned and by whom, how liability works for infrastructure that other AI companies build on. Very few lawyers get to work on these this early.
Salary Range: $301,000–$324,000 USD/year, plus eligibility for up to $50,000 USD in semi-annual performance bonuses, totaling up to $100,000 USD annually
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: 5–8 years of sophisticated commercial, technology, or product counseling experience
Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
Negotiate enterprise customer agreements, data-licensing deals, vendor contracts, and partnership agreements, start to finish
Serve as the legal partner sales and BD actually want in the room, not the one they route around
Advise product and engineering directly on data access, privacy, AI, intellectual property, and the regulatory questions that come with all three
Take on the novel and higher-risk matters: AI output ownership, permissioning, licensing structures nobody has standardized yet
Build the contracting processes, templates, playbooks, fallback positions, and approval thresholds that let deals move without a lawyer in every loop
Implement company policies and compliance programs, and make sure they actually run rather than sit in a doc
Decide when a matter needs outside counsel, and manage that relationship tightly when it does
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 drive things to done without supervision. The GC will hand you a direction, not a plan. You're the person who owns matters independently, exercises judgment on the calls that don't have a clear answer, and closes them out
You know exactly when to escalate. Real autonomy only works if your instincts are good about what you handle, what goes to the GC, and what needs a founder
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

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.

","descriptionPlain":"SENIOR COMMERCIAL & PRODUCT COUNSEL\n\n\n\nYou'll own Firecrawl's commercial and product legal work end to end. Every enterprise deal, data-licensing agreement, and vendor relationship that gets signed here will run through you, and every product and engineering team shipping into new legal territory will come to you first. This is not a role where you review other people's paper and send back comments. You'll negotiate directly with counterparties, sit next to sales and BD while deals are live, advise engineers on data access and AI questions nobody has settled yet, and build the templates, playbooks, and processes that let the company move faster without taking on risk it shouldn't.\n\nThis is the second legal hire at Firecrawl. The General Counsel sets legal strategy, risk posture, and policy. You make it real and make it run. The questions are genuinely novel: who owns AI-generated output, what data access is permissioned and by whom, how liability works for infrastructure that other AI companies build on. Very few lawyers get to work on these this early.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $301,000–$324,000 USD/year, plus eligibility for up to $50,000 USD in semi-annual performance bonuses, totaling up to $100,000 USD annually\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). On-site, five days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 5–8 years of sophisticated commercial, technology, or product counseling experience\n\nWork Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.\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\nWe hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Negotiate enterprise customer agreements, data-licensing deals, vendor contracts, and partnership agreements, start to finish\n\n - Serve as the legal partner sales and BD actually want in the room, not the one they route around\n\n - Advise product and engineering directly on data access, privacy, AI, intellectual property, and the regulatory questions that come with all three\n\n - Take on the novel and higher-risk matters: AI output ownership, permissioning, licensing structures nobody has standardized yet\n\n - Build the contracting processes, templates, playbooks, fallback positions, and approval thresholds that let deals move without a lawyer in every loop\n\n - Implement company policies and compliance programs, and make sure they actually run rather than sit in a doc\n\n - Decide when a matter needs outside counsel, and manage that relationship tightly when it does\n\n - Pick up whatever else the company needs legally as we grow, because early legal teams don't get to have narrow scopes\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - 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\n\n - You drive things to done without supervision. The GC will hand you a direction, not a plan. You're the person who owns matters independently, exercises judgment on the calls that don't have a clear answer, and closes them out\n\n - You know exactly when to escalate. Real autonomy only works if your instincts are good about what you handle, what goes to the GC, and what needs a founder\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n - 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.

Build and ship developer-facing product features from idea to production
Own the reliability and quality of what you ship against a web that constantly changes and fights back
Turn hard, ambiguous problems 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, response format, 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

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). On-site, five days a week.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 3+ years in backend, networking, or infrastructure engineering
Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States or Canada. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now. 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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
Build and maintain the infrastructure that powers reliable data collection at scale
Improve success rates against sites with aggressive defenses
Own the health, rotation, and cost efficiency of the proxy layer
Push throughput and reliability under heavy, spiky, real-world load
Debug hard, intermittent failures across the stack and make them stay fixed
You've worked on networking, proxies, or high-throughput backend systems
You're relentless about reliability and comfortable in messy, adversarial problem spaces
You can own a system end to end and keep it healthy in production
You move fast and close the loop. You'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
Someone who wants clean, well-defined problems only
Someone who avoids on-call or production ownership
Someone who needs the environment to be stable to do their best work
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 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.

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): Ship a real, scoped growth experiment or surface with the team, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides.

Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States or Canada. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now. 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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
Design and build the crawling, indexing, and retrieval systems behind Firecrawl Search
Push down latency and cost per query while search volume grows
Improve ranking quality and freshness for LLM-driven retrieval
Own services end to end: design, ship, monitor, and iterate in production
Work directly with the Head of Search and the rest of the search team on the roadmap
You've built and operated backend or distributed systems at real scale
You care about latency, cost, and correctness in equal measure
You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped systems
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
Someone who wants to specialize narrowly and hand off everything else
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

When a company signs on with Firecrawl, you're the one who lands in their environment, wires up the integration, and turns \"we bought it\" into \"it's in production and working.\" This is a hands-on, customer-facing engineering role measured in time-to-value and adoption, not tickets closed. You build, you deploy, you own the outcome.
Salary Range: $190,000–$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: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
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 revenue 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: $190,000–$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

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

Application Review: Send us three videos you're proud of. For each, tell us the idea, who it was for, and what you personally owned. Share results if you have them, plus one thing you'd change if you made it again. Add a short note on why Firecrawl and one video idea you'd be excited to make here. We care about the work, not where you went to school.

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.

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
Own the technical surface of the Exchange, working alongside the engineers already building in it
Make every access chargeable: the metering that turns partner usage into something we can bill, report on, and pay out against
Write the gating that enforces what each source's terms allow, so a permissioned source stays permissioned once it is serving real traffic
Work with the Head of Data Partnerships, and with the founders, on what is technically real for a deal before it gets signed
Turn each integration into less work for the next one, so the second partnership lands faster than the first
You've built and shipped developer-facing product that people actually used
You've owned production data or integration systems end to end: pipelines, third-party feeds, metering or billing infrastructure, or comparable
You care about developer experience like a designer cares about pixels: latency, response format, 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 wants partnerships to mean slide decks, with the engineering handed off to someone else
Someone who optimizes for process over shipping

If the future of how the web gets accessed and paid for is something you want to spend your time on, this is the role. Past that, the bar is the same as any product engineer here: a very good engineer with real product sense who owns what they ship. 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. Details shared during the process.\n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub). On-site, five days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 5+ years. You've owned production data or integration systems end to end\n\nWork Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States or Canada. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now. 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\nWe hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.\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":"72f9dc1d-65db-48c9-b3d9-c6ccdb997006","title":"Machine Learning Engineer","department":"Engineering Team","team":"Engineering Team","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"San Francisco HQ; Toronto Hub","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-08-20T21:40:10.101+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":false,"workplaceType":"OnSite","address":{"postalAddress":{}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/72f9dc1d-65db-48c9-b3d9-c6ccdb997006","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/72f9dc1d-65db-48c9-b3d9-c6ccdb997006/application","descriptionHtml":"You'll build the ML behind Firecrawl: the models and the systems that serve them.

Mine query logs and behavioral data at scale to find where our products win and where they fail
Build the data pipelines that turn web-scale crawl and query data into training data and features
Work hands-on with platform, search, and cloud DevOps engineers to get models running fast and cheap in production

Partner on product launches across Firecrawl: define success metrics, run the experiments, and make the ship/no-ship call on evidence
Report on how releases perform post-launch and turn the findings into the next iteration
You've shipped ML models into production systems and owned them after launch: deploying, monitoring, and retraining them, not handing them off
You have real ranking or relevance-modeling experience: learning-to-rank, recommendations, or search quality
You're comfortable in large, data-heavy systems: query logs, pipelines, and datasets that don't fit in memory
You write production-quality code (Python at minimum) and can work inside a real backend codebase
You're rigorous about measurement. You've designed and analyzed A/B tests and know when a lift is real
You can communicate results clearly to the team: what shipped, what moved, and what to do next
MLOps experience: MLflow, experiment tracking, model registries, or feature stores. Kubernetes is a plus
Experience building or standardizing an experimentation framework at a previous company
Experience with embedding models, vector retrieval, or LLM-based relevance evaluation
Experience evaluating LLM outputs at scale: quality scoring, structured-extraction accuracy, or agent behavior
Spark or similar large-scale data processing experience
A pure statistician or analyst who needs an engineering team to productionize their work
Someone who wants to specialize narrowly and hand off everything else

Own the incident lifecycle with engineers, from on-call and triage process to postmortems and resolution
You've operated stateful distributed systems on Kubernetes at real scale, not just stateless services
You have deep experience with a major cloud (GCP, AWS, or Azure), Docker, and Terraform. MLOps or ML-serving infrastructure experience (GPU workloads, model deployment pipelines) is a plus
You've run large-scale, data-heavy systems in production: search platforms, crawling or ingestion pipelines, or comparable. Hands-on experience operating Vespa is a strong plus
You care about latency, cost, and reliability in equal measure
Experience with security and compliance infrastructure (SSO/SAML, audit logging, network isolation, SOC 2) is a strong plus
You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped infrastructure
Someone who needs a fully-specced ticket to start
Someone who wants to specialize narrowly and hand off everything else
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.

","descriptionPlain":"CLOUD DEVOPS ENGINEER\n\n\n\nYou'll build the cloud infrastructure that turns the open web into data: the platform beneath Firecrawl's crawling, scraping, and search products. We need engineers who can make that foundation (Kubernetes, storage, networking, deployments) fast, reliable, and cheap at web scale. You'll own real infrastructure from day one, not tickets in a backlog.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $246,000–$271,000 USD/year (SF) / $204,000–$212,000 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). On-site, five days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 5+ years in DevOps, Platform Engineering, or Cloud Infrastructure\n\nWork Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States or Canada. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now. 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\nWe hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Design, build, and operate GCP and on-prem infrastructure behind Firecrawl's products\n\n - Run large stateful and high-throughput workloads on Kubernetes (search clusters, crawling fleets, queues, and databases) with zero-downtime upgrades\n\n - Own CI/CD, Infrastructure as Code, automations, and containerized deployments across the platform\n\n - Drive down infrastructure cost per request while traffic and data volume grow\n\n - Build the observability that keeps latency, throughput, and reliability predictable, and define the SLIs, SLOs, and customer-facing SLAs we hold ourselves to\n\n - Build and support our enterprise controls: SSO/SAML, RBAC, audit logging, tenant isolation, private networking, and the infrastructure behind SOC 2 and customer security reviews\n\n - Work directly with product and search engineers to productionize new services, retrieval, and ML workloads\n\n - Own the incident lifecycle with engineers, from on-call and triage process to postmortems and resolution\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - You've operated stateful distributed systems on Kubernetes at real scale, not just stateless services\n\n - You have deep experience with a major cloud (GCP, AWS, or Azure), Docker, and Terraform.

Turn one-off enterprise asks into reusable platform capability, not per-customer patches
Work directly with the founders and core platform engineers to land what you design
Ship what you design. This is a building role, not an advisory one
You've shipped what enterprise security teams ask for, and gone deep on it, not just checked boxes
You've built or operated multi-cloud or hybrid infrastructure: cloud and on-prem, not just one provider
You have deep cloud security and IAM fundamentals
You're comfortable shipping in TypeScript/Node. You build what you design, you don't hand it off
You can walk an enterprise security team through your design and answer the hard questions on the spot
Someone who treats security and compliance as a checkbox, not real engineering
Someone who solves it once per customer instead of once for the platform
Someone looking for a solutions-engineering seat. This is a builder role that visits the sales room, not the other way around

That's you. You'll own how Firecrawl proves, in practice, that our systems do what our policies and commitments say they do.
This is not a legal role, and it's not a checklist compliance job. It's a technical program role for someone who speaks fluent engineer and fluent lawyer, and who is exceptionally good at turning ambiguous requirements into formal systems that work.

Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
Translate legal, security, and policy requirements into practical technical processes, controls, and documentation engineers will actually use
Implement the compliance-related technical requirements the legal team defines, and own them once they're live
Build and maintain the monitoring and controls that show our systems do what our policies and commitments require
Coordinate cross-functional compliance projects end to end across engineering, legal, sales, and ops, from novel requirement to shipped system
Document how our technical systems satisfy company policies and external obligations, in a way that survives a customer security review or an auditor's questions
Find the gaps before someone else does, escalate what matters, and drive it to closed
Build the metrics and reporting that tell leadership where we actually stand
Automate compliance wherever it's practical. You'd rather build a control that runs itself than police a process by hand
You've run technical programs across engineering teams and shipped operational systems, not just tracked them in a spreadsheet
You work fluently with software engineers and can hold your own on how systems actually work
You turn ambiguity into structure. Novel, undefined requirements are the fun part, not the blocker
You're technically curious and go find out how something works rather than waiting for someone to explain it
You're extraordinarily organized and you close loops without being chased
You're an excellent communicator in both directions: you can make a lawyer understand an architecture and an engineer understand an obligation
You're a self-starter. Nobody is going to hand you a plan. You'll be designing this function while running it
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
Bonus: direct experience with legal, regulatory, privacy, or policy requirements. Preferred, not required. We care more about how you think than what frameworks you've memorized.
Someone who runs compliance as a checklist and hands engineering a list of no's
A pure legal or GRC background with no real technical depth
Someone who needs the requirements fully defined before they can start
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: $251,000–$276,000 USD/year, based on impact, not tenure

Enterprise deals, data-licensing agreements, vendor paper, partnership terms: you'll draft them, negotiate them, and get them closed. 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. The questions here are genuinely novel: who owns AI-generated output, what data access is permissioned and by whom, how liability works for infrastructure that other AI companies build on. Very few lawyers this early in their career get real reps on them.
Salary Range: $246,000–$270,000 USD/year (SF) / $200,000–$211,000 CAD/year (Toronto), plus eligibility for up to $50,000 USD in semi-annual performance bonuses, totaling up to $100,000 USD annually. (Range shown is for US-based employees in San Francisco, CA, and Canada-based employees in Toronto, ON. Compensation is adjusted fairly based on your location's cost of living.)
Equity Range: Competitive equity - details shared during the process.
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub) preferred, on-site five days a week. Open to remote within US time zones (UTC-5 to UTC-10) for the right candidate.
Job Type: Full-Time
Experience: 3–8 years of commercial, technology, or product counseling experience
Visa: Must be legally authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
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.

","descriptionPlain":"COMMERCIAL COUNSEL\n\n\n\nYou'll run a large share of Firecrawl's day-to-day commercial contracting. Enterprise deals, data-licensing agreements, vendor paper, partnership terms: you'll draft them, negotiate them, and get them closed. 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.\n\nYou'll work alongside the Senior Commercial & Product Counsel and report to the General Counsel on a legal team that's being built from scratch. The questions here are genuinely novel: who owns AI-generated output, what data access is permissioned and by whom, how liability works for infrastructure that other AI companies build on. Very few lawyers this early in their career get real reps on them.\n\n\n\nSalary Range: $246,000–$270,000 USD/year (SF) / $200,000–$211,000 CAD/year (Toronto), plus eligibility for up to $50,000 USD in semi-annual performance bonuses, totaling up to $100,000 USD annually. (Range shown is for US-based employees in San Francisco, CA, and Canada-based employees in Toronto, ON. Compensation is adjusted fairly based on your location's cost of living.)\n\nEquity Range: Competitive equity - details shared during the process. \n\nLocation: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ) or Toronto, ON (Toronto Hub) preferred, on-site five days a week. Open to remote within US time zones (UTC-5 to UTC-10) for the right candidate.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 3–8 years of commercial, technology, or product counseling experience\n\nVisa: Must be legally authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor visas right now, though that may change down the line.\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\nWe hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Draft and negotiate enterprise customer agreements, data-licensing deals, vendor contracts, NDAs, and partnership agreements\n\n - Be the legal partner sales and BD actually want in the room, not the one they route around\n\n - Advise on data rights, privacy, confidentiality, security, IP, indemnification, and limitations of liability\n\n - Work with product and engineering on data access and AI questions as they come up in deals\n\n - Help build and maintain the templates, playbooks, fallback positions, and approval thresholds that keep deals moving without a lawyer in every loop\n\n - Support the compliance programs and company policies the legal team is standing up\n\n - Spot the matters that need the GC, senior counsel, or outside counsel, and escalate them early and cleanly\n\n - Pick up whatever else the company needs legally as we grow, because early legal teams don't get to have narrow scopes\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n - 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\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - A lawyer who runs commercial legal as a gatekeeping function and measures success by deals slowed down\n\n - Someone who needs a fully staffed team, a CLM platform, and defined process before they can be effective\n\n - A pure litigator or generalist looking to pivot into commercial work on the job\n\n - Someone who wants to stay in a specialty lane. This team is four people and the work is whatever comes in\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\nIf 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.\n\n\n\n\nBENEFITS & PERKS\n\n\n\n\nAVAILABLE TO ALL EMPLOYEES\n\n - Salary that makes sense: $246,000–$270,000 USD/year (SF) / $200,000–$211,000 CAD/year (Toronto), plus eligibility for up to $50,000 USD in semi-annual performance bonuses, totaling up to $100,000 USD annually.

We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
Own the main Firecrawl repo end to end: triage issues, review PRs, cut releases, write docs
Keep the self-host experience easy: clone it, run it, keep it running, no surprises
Build out new context primitives, starting with anydoc, our document parsing engine
Make the calls on scope and API design for what belongs in a primitive and what doesn't
Think about what makes an open source project spread on its own, and build toward that
Ship code and review PRs every week. This is an engineering seat, not a community seat
A real open source track record: maintaining a popular repo, or landing significant contributions to one
You care about the self-host experience and know what makes a repo easy to clone, run, and keep running
Comfortable owning a repo end to end, from triaging issues and reviewing PRs to cutting releases and writing docs
You've built parsers, crawlers, browser tooling, or developer libraries, and have taste in what belongs in a primitive and what doesn't
You understand how open source turns into adoption and pay attention to why some projects take off
High agency. Happy to make calls on scope, API design, and what gets merged
Often a maintainer, ex-founder, early startup engineer, or builder with impressive public work
Someone looking for a developer relations role. This is an engineering seat first
Someone who wants community work to substitute for shipping code
Someone who needs a mapped-out roadmap before they'll make a scope call
Someone who's used open source but never maintained or owned a repo of real scale
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

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 resume and a link to something you've built. Repos you maintain, contributions you've landed, libraries people actually use. We care about what you've actually 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 walk through a repo you've maintained and a real problem from ours: a self-host path that's gotten fragile, a scope call on what belongs in a primitive, or a PR queue that's outgrown one reviewer. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason about maintainership, not whether you know our codebase yet.
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 on one of our open source repos, paid at a contractor rate. It's the truest signal for both sides. You see what maintaining Firecrawl's open source work actually feels like, and we see how you operate. Remote-friendly, and we'll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to own the open source surface of one of the fastest-growing AI companies in the world, you should join us.

","descriptionPlain":"OPEN SOURCE ENGINEER\n\n\n\nFirecrawl is looking for a high-agency engineer to own our open source work. That starts with the main Firecrawl repo (180k+ stars and counting, top 50 repositories of all time), which should stay the easiest thing in the category to self-host.

That's you.
This is not primarily an administrative job. It's an operational build role for someone who is genuinely energized by designing systems from nothing, who can pick up a messy process and turn it into something repeatable that engineers, salespeople, and executives actually use. You'll work across commercial contracting, compliance, legal technology, product, and regulatory matters, not by practicing law, but by building the machinery that lets the lawyers move fast.

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.
Build and maintain the contract management, legal operations, and compliance systems the function runs on
Own the legal technology stack: CLM, e-billing, matter management. Pick the tools, run them, make them work
Build and run contract intake and routing, from first request to signature
Take on the creative and novel tasks that don't require a law degree but do require someone reliable to own them end to end
Support the legal team on research, regulatory monitoring, and special projects
Work with finance, sales, product, engineering, HR, and security to keep legal workflows moving
Manage outside counsel and legal vendor relationships, including billing, budgets, and engagement terms
Find the repetitive work and standardize, automate, or kill it with technology and AI
Track legal spend, contract volume, and turnaround time, and report out on where things actually stand
Take on more ownership over time, shaped by what you're good at and what you want to get good at
Strong candidates may come from legal operations, contracts, compliance, business operations, consulting, technology, professional services, or somewhere else entirely. What matters is that the work was complex and you were the one who owned the details.
You process a lot of AI output without shipping slop. You can run large volumes of AI-generated content through your own judgment and have what comes out the other side be right. This is the single most important thing on this list
You drive projects to done independently. Nobody is going to hand you a plan or check your work at every step
You've built or meaningfully improved a process, not just maintained one that was already there
You turn a vague ask into a working process. Undefined scope is the fun part, not the blocker
You're extraordinarily organized and you close loops without being chased
You're excellent in writing and out loud, with sales, finance, and leadership, not just with lawyers
You have good judgment and real discretion with confidential information
You master new tools fast. Every system here will be new to you and that shouldn't slow you down
You're intellectually curious about how legal, business, and technology decisions actually get made
You're an AI super user. Hard requirement, not a nice-to-have. You reach for AI to move faster by default
A law degree is not required, and this role isn't limited to people on any particular educational or professional track.
If you're seriously weighing law school, this job is an unusually good look before you commit. You'll work directly with experienced attorneys and see how they actually handle commercial negotiations, product questions, regulatory issues, corporate matters, and risk calls, at a company where all of it is happening at the frontier of AI.
That said, law school is neither expected nor preferred. Legal operations is a substantive career in its own right and it's growing fast. We'd be just as excited about someone who wants to build a long career in legal ops, contracts, compliance, or business operations. What we want is someone who wants to become excellent at this job, take real ownership, and grow with us.
Someone who wants a fully built-out legal ops function to maintain rather than build
Someone who needs the requirements fully defined before they can start
Someone who treats AI output as finished work
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.

What we want is someone who wants to become excellent at this job, take real ownership, and grow with us.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Someone who wants a fully built-out legal ops function to maintain rather than build\n\n - Someone who needs the requirements fully defined before they can start\n\n - Someone who treats AI output as finished work\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: $140,000–$160,000 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).

Show us a process or system you built or fixed, what was broken, and what you changed. 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. What you've been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you're looking for. Time for your questions too.\n\nSystems Chat (~45 min): We'll dig into a real problem from our world (standing up a contract intake process from nothing, or taking a manual workflow and automating it) and talk through how you'd approach it. Come ready to think out loud. We care how you reason, not whether you've used a particular tool.\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 work, 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. 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 design a modern legal operations function from scratch at one of the fastest-growing AI companies in the world, you should join us.\n\n👉 Apply now."},{"id":"0c635f7b-559b-4bca-930a-fcac4a9c4a7d","title":"General Counsel","department":"Legal Team","team":"Legal Team","employmentType":"FullTime","location":"San Francisco, CA","secondaryLocations":[],"publishedAt":"2026-09-16T12:36:43.504+00:00","isListed":true,"isRemote":false,"workplaceType":"OnSite","address":{"postalAddress":{"addressRegion":"","addressLocality":""}},"jobUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/0c635f7b-559b-4bca-930a-fcac4a9c4a7d","applyUrl":"https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/firecrawl/0c635f7b-559b-4bca-930a-fcac4a9c4a7d/application","descriptionHtml":"You'll run legal at Firecrawl, all of it. 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). On-site, five 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: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.
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.

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.

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":"SEARCH ENGINEER\n\n\n\nYou'll keep Firecrawl connected to the open web. Every product we ship depends on reliably accessing pages at web scale, and the modern web actively resists automation with detection systems, challenge flows, and fingerprinting that evolve weekly. This role is equal parts research and engineering: understand how those systems work at the deepest level, then turn that understanding into infrastructure that keeps our scraping fast, reliable, and resilient. If you like taking apart obfuscated JavaScript on a Tuesday and shipping the fix to production on Wednesday, this is for you.\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). On-site, five days a week.\n\nJob Type: Full-Time\n\nExperience: 3+ years building browser automation, web infrastructure, or systems-level software\n\nWork Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States or Canada. We're not able to sponsor US visas right now. 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\nWe hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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.\n\n\n\n\nWHAT YOU'LL DO\n\n - Reverse engineer detection: Research how modern websites detect and challenge automated traffic, and take apart those mechanisms and challenge flows\n\n - Find the signals: Identify the browser, device, network, and behavioral signals that separate automated access from human traffic\n\n - Replicate and harden: Reproduce those signals synthetically in authorized test environments to validate and harden our approaches\n\n - Turn research into production: Build the automation, diagnostic, and monitoring tools that keep scrape reliability high as the web shifts\n\n - Own scrape success rate: Measure it, explain regressions, and ship the fixes\n\n - Ship fleet-wide: Work with platform engineers to roll improvements out across the crawling fleet at scale\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR\n\n - Languages: Strong JavaScript/TypeScript and/or Python, and comfortable picking up whatever a problem demands\n\n - Browser internals: Real understanding of rendering, JS engines, headless automation (CDP, Playwright, Puppeteer), and where automated browsers differ from real ones\n\n - Network fundamentals: Solid grasp of HTTP/TLS, proxies, and browser and device fingerprinting\n\n - Reverse-engineering instincts: You can read minified, obfuscated code and figure out what it's actually checking\n\n - Research with a shipping habit: You go deep on how something works, then land the fix in production, not just a writeup\n\n - 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\n\n\n\n\nWHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR\n\n - Needs a spec: Someone who needs a fully specced ticket to start\n\n - Narrow lane: Someone who wants to specialize narrowly and hand off everything else\n\n - Process first: 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 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).
