Responsibilities

  • Dogfood relentlessly. You build with the API before you ship changes to it. You feel the friction first. You read every GitHub issue, every Discord thread, every support ticket that touches scrape - not because someone asked you to, but because that's where the product signal lives.
  • Run fast product experiments. Form a hypothesis about what would make scrape better, instrument it, ship it, measure it, decide quickly. You're comfortable making calls with imperfect data because waiting for perfect data means shipping nothing - and the competition isn't waiting.
  • Raise the bar on developer experience. Firecrawl's users are technical. They notice when response formats drift, when error codes are unhelpful, when docs lag behind behavior. You notice too - and you fix it before they have to ask.

Additional Information

Product Engineer - Scrape You'll own Firecrawl's flagship product - the scrape endpoint that turns any URL into clean, LLM-ready data with a single API call. It's the product 100k+ developers know us for, the one that put Firecrawl on the map, and the one every new AI app reaches for when it needs the web as input. Your job is to make it unbeatable: faster, more reliable, better formatted, and more delightful to integrate than anything else on the market. This isn't a maintenance role. Scrape is the front door - and the front door has to be the best part of the house. At a 26-person company, the gap between "the scraper works" and "developers can't imagine using anything else" is exactly one person. You're that person. Salary Range: $180,000 to $290,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees in San Francisco, CA. Compensation outside the U.S. is adjusted fairly based on your country's cost of living.) Equity Range: Up to 0.15% Location: San Francisco, CA or Remote (Americas, UTC-3 to UTC-10) Job Type: Full-Time Experience: 3+ years shipping developer-facing products - ideally in scraping, crawling, browser automation, or data infrastructure Visa: US Citizenship/Visa required for SF; N/A for Remote About Firecrawl 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 a year, we've hit 8 figures in ARR and 120k+ GitHub stars by building the fastest way for developers to get LLM-ready data. We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure superintelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep.
