Senior Software Engineer
You'll write the code that turns Firecrawl users into Firecrawl revenue. Signup and activation belong to our product growth team. Your surface starts the moment a developer is already using us and asks: should this person be paying more, and what's stopping them? You'll own the monetization funnel end to end: pricing pages, plan and upgrade flows, usage-based upsell, trial-to-paid conversion, and the self-serve path that hands a growing account to the sales team at exactly the right moment. This is full-stack engineering measured in revenue, not features. You'll report to our VP of Deployment and own real conversion outcomes from day one.

About Firecrawl
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.
In September 2026, we raised a $75M Series B led by Smash Capital, and we're 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 187k+ 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 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. That library is called Alexandria, and it starts now.
