Job description
- Youβve personally owned a revenue metric (paid conversion, upgrade rate, expansion, or NRR), and moved it, not just shipped features someone else measured
- Youβre a strong full-stack engineer whoβs worked on growth or PLG products
- Youβve personally owned a conversion, activation, or funnel metric, and moved it, not just shipped features someone else measured
- You think like a scientist: hypothesis, experiment, measure, iterate. Youβve run real A/B tests you can talk about, including what you learned when they didnβt go as planned
- Youβve worked on developer-facing products (SDKs, playgrounds, docs surfaces, APIs) and understand how developers actually adopt tools
- You have a track record of staying with your work long enough to see it through. We look for real tenure, not a trail of short stints
- You move fast and close the loop. Youβd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
- Bonus if youβve shipped in-product growth surfaces at a dev-tools or SaaS company (onboarding, activation, upgrade flows, in-product guidance) or built conversion pages that measurably moved signup
- Bonus for experience with our stack (Next.js, React, Tailwind, TypeScript, Vercel, PostgreSQL, and the Anthropic Claude API) or for having built with LLMs in production: prompt engineering, tool use, inference pipelines

- Own the monetization surfaces end to end: pricing, plans, upgrade flows, and the self-serve to sales handoff
- Instrument the revenue funnel, run pricing and packaging experiments, and ship the changes that move paid conversion and expansion
- Treat paid conversion and net revenue retention as your number. You own it, measure it, and move it, * Salary that makes sense: $235,000-$260,000 USD/year, based on impact, not tenure

- 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

- Supplemental options: Extra life and AD&D, accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, plus pet, legal, and identity protection through MetLife, Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Show us growth work youβve shipped and, ideally, a metric you owned and moved. We care about what youβve built, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. Weβll talk about what youβve been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what youβre looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical Chat (~45 min): Weβll dig into a real problem from our world: how youβd instrument and improve a piece of our funnel, or a growth experiment youβd run and how youβd measure 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): Ship a real, scoped piece of growth work with the team, paid at a contractor rate. Itβs the truest signal for both sides. You see what building at Firecrawl actually feels like, and we see how you ship. Remote-friendly, and weβll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to own the code that turns developer curiosity into adoption at one of the fastest-growing companies in AI, you should join us.
About the company
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. Itβs the boring-hard problem everyone building with LLMs eventually hits, solved.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and weβre spending it building the largest repository of knowledge in the world. We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 192k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 40 repositories of all time, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and weβre just getting started.
Weβre a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves. No hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
