You'll work directly with customers to get Firecrawl integrated, running, and scaling inside their products. That means writing real code, debugging real systems, and turning customer needs into shipped solutions — fast. This is not a support role. It's a technical ownership role with a customer face.

Firecrawl is the easiest way to extract data from the web. Developers use us to reliably convert URLs into LLM-ready markdown or structured data with a single API call. In just over a year, we've hit 8 figures in ARR and 100k+ GitHub stars by building the fastest way for developers to get clean, structured web data.
We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure for the AI era. We ship fast and deep.
Own technical integration delivery for priority customers — from first API call through production scale
Write TypeScript/Node.js code to build, customize, and debug integrations with payments systems, cloud platforms, and third-party APIs
Debug complex real-world issues live with customers — crawling edge cases, data pipeline failures, infra constraints
Build reusable solutions and playbooks that turn one-off customer problems into repeatable wins for the team
Translate customer friction into clear product and engineering insights and route them to the right people
Work closely with core engineering on reliability, performance, and DX improvements driven by what you're seeing in the field
A strong TypeScript/Node.js engineer. You write clean, production-quality code and you're fast. You've built integrations with external APIs and you understand what makes them brittle.
Experienced with payments and cloud platforms. You've worked with Stripe or similar billing systems. You've integrated with GCP, Vercel, or comparable cloud providers. You don't need to Google the basics.
Solid on backend and data fundamentals. You can design a system, model a schema, and reason about data at scale. You know when to reach for a relational database and when not to.
Security-aware. You understand the common auth patterns — OAuth, API keys, JWTs — and you know where the traps are when integrating third-party systems.
High ownership with customers. You're comfortable in ambiguous, high-stakes situations with real customers. You communicate clearly, set expectations honestly, and follow through.
Backgrounds that often do well: integration or platform engineers, solutions engineers who write real code, early engineers at API-first startups who owned customer-facing technical work.
Engineers who hand off customer problems to someone else after the first call
Solutions engineers who demo well but can't ship production code
Anyone who needs a fully-scoped ticket before they can start moving
We're a small team doing a lot. Roles here are loosely defined on purpose — you'll own things that don't have a clear owner yet, and that's a feature, not a bug. If you need your scope fully defined before you can move, this probably isn't the right fit. If you want to build something that matters inside one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure companies in the world, let's talk.
Salary that makes sense — $160,000–$220,000/year (SF, U.S.-based), based on impact, not tenure
Own a piece — Up to 0.1% 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

Wellness stipend — $100/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human
Learning & Development — Expense up to $1,000/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 spouse/kids) — no weird loopholes, just care that works
Life & Disability insurance — Employer-paid short-term disability, long-term disability, and life insurance — coverage for life's curveballs
Supplemental options — Optional accident, critical illness, hospital indemnity, and voluntary life insurance for extra peace of mind
Doctegrity telehealth — Talk to a doctor from your couch
401(k) plan — Retirement might be a ways off, but future-you will thank you
Pre-tax benefits — Access to FSAs and commuter benefits (US-only) to help your wallet out a bit
Pet insurance — Because fur babies are family too
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: integrations you've built, systems you've owned, or customer-facing technical projects you've shipped. A quick note on what excites you about this role specifically.
Intro Chat (~20 min) — Quick alignment call. We'll talk about what you've built, how you work with customers under pressure, and what you'd want to tackle first.
Deep Dive Chat (~60 min) — A hands-on integration problem. We're evaluating how you debug, how you communicate your reasoning, and how you make decisions when the requirements are incomplete.
Founder Chat (~30 min) — Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (1–2 weeks) — Work on a real integration challenge with an actual customer use case. We evaluate on code quality, problem-solving, and how you handle ambiguity.
Decision — We move fast after the trial.
If you want to be the engineer who gets Firecrawl running inside the products that matter — and you're as comfortable with customers as you are with code — this is your shot.
