Sales Engineer

Sales Engineer

You'll be the technical partner in every deal that matters. When a developer or company is evaluating Firecrawl for serious scale, you're the one who shows them what it can do, architects the solution to their problem, runs the proof of concept, and answers the hard technical questions that decide the deal. You sit at the intersection of engineering and revenue: fluent enough to earn a developer's trust, commercial enough to move a deal forward.

You'll report to our VP of Revenue and Success and own the technical side of the sales motion from day one.

Salary Range: $235,000-$275,000 OTE, depending on experience. Typical split is 75% base / 25% variable. (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: Competitive equity — details shared during the process.

Location: San Francisco, CA (Hybrid, on-site required)

Job Type: Full-Time

Experience: 3+ years in sales engineering, solutions engineering, or a technical customer-facing role at a developer or API product

Visa: Must already be authorized to work in the US or our eligible remote-hire regions. We're not able to sponsor visas right now, though that may change down the line.

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 150k+ Git Hub 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.

• Own the technical side of the sales cycle: discovery, solution architecture, demos, and proof of concepts

• Get hands-on with the product in front of customers, show them exactly how Firecrawl solves their problem

• Answer the deep technical questions that make or break a deal, and know when to pull in engineering

• Build POCs and technical proposals that turn  interesting  into  signed

• Be the trusted technical voice for prospects, and bring their feedback back to product and engineering

• Partner closely with the revenue team to move deals forward and hit team targets

• You've done technical pre-sales, solutions engineering, or a customer-facing technical role, ideally at a developer or API product

• You're technical enough to earn a developer's respect: you can read code, use an API, and build a real POC yourself

• You can translate between deep technical detail and business value without losing either audience

• You're energized by customer conversations and comfortable owning your part of a deal's outcome

• You move fast and close the loop - you'd rather ship a POC and iterate than perfect a deck

• A pure account executive who can't get technical

• An engineer who doesn't want to be in front of customers

• Someone who needs a fully-built playbook before they can run a deal

We operate at an absurd level of urgency because the window for what we're building won't stay open forever. If that excites you, keep reading. If it doesn't, no hard feelings — but this role probably isn't for you.

• Salary that makes sense — $235,000-$275,000 OTE, depending on experience

• Own a piece — Gain competitive 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

• Parental leave — 12 weeks fully paid, for all parents

• Wellness stipend — $100/month…
