Software Development
Full Stack Developer, AI Engineer (Applied/Software), Backend Developer, Software Engineer
You'll write the code that turns developers discovering Firecrawl into developers who can't live without it. This is a full-stack engineering role pointed entirely at growth: you'll own the signup, activation, onboarding, and conversion experience, and you'll be measured on the funnel metrics you move, not just the features you ship. You'll instrument, experiment, build, and iterate on the product surfaces that drive our PLG motion.
You'll report to our VP of Revenue and Success and own real conversion outcomes from day one.
Salary Range: $225,000–$290,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.

Experience: 5+ years as a full-stack engineer, with growth/PLG experience and metrics you personally owned

About FirecrawlFirecrawl 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 170k+ 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.
What You'll DoOwn 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
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, Type Script, 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
A growth marketer, this is an engineering role that writes production code
A backend engineer with no interest in the…
