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 - 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 175k+ GitHub stars, and developers, agents, and category-defining AI companies build on us every day. Growth like this is rare, and we're just getting started.
We're a small team punching far above our weight. Everyone here owns a real piece of the product and company, end to end, and runs it themselves - no hiding behind process or headcount.
This is a place for people who want to work at the frontier: an AI company building the infrastructure other AI companies run on, not one bolting AI onto an existing product. We move fast, go deep, and are building the tools superintelligence will rely on to gather data from the web.
Responsibilities
- Own the growth surfaces end to end: signup, activation, onboarding, and conversion
- Instrument the funnel, run experiments, and ship the changes that move real metrics
- Build full-stack, from the frontend a developer first touches to the backend that powers it
- Treat conversion and activation as your number, you own it, measure it, and move it
- Work close to the data, form hypotheses, test them, and iterate fast on what works
Requirements
- You're a strong full-stack engineer who's worked on growth or PLG products
- You've personally owned a conversion, activation, or funnel metric, and moved it, not just shipped features someone else measured
- You think like a scientist: hypothesis, experiment, measure, iterate, and you've run real A/B tests you can talk about, including what you learned when they didn't go as planned
- Bonus if you've shipped in-product growth surfaces at a dev-tools or SaaS company (onboarding, activation, upgrade flows, in-product guidance) or built conversion pages that measurably moved signup, not just static pages that shipped
- 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
- You've worked on developer-facing products, SDKs, playgrounds, docs surfaces, APIs, and understand how developers actually adopt tools
- You have a track record of staying with your work long enough to see it through (we look for real tenure, not a trail of short stints)
- You move fast and close the loop - you'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
