Description
You'll build the products developers and AI agents reach for when they need to take action on the web, not just read it. This is hands-on product engineering at the core of where Firecrawl is going: shipping the agent features that let LLMs navigate, decide, and act across the open web, owning them from idea to production, and obsessing over the details that make an API a joy to build on.
Salary Range: $235,000–$260,000/year Equity Range: Competitive equity , details shared during the process.
What You'll Do
- Build and ship developer-facing agent features from idea to production
- Own the reliability and quality of agent behavior against a live, unpredictable web that constantly changes and fights back
- Turn hard, ambiguous problems (multi-step navigation, action reliability, recovery from failure, keeping agents on task) into clean APIs developers love to use
- Work directly with the engineering team on the roadmap and the tradeoffs behind it
- Dogfood the product, read the GitHub issues, and let real developer pain drive what you build
What We're Looking For
- You've built and shipped developer-facing product that people actually used
- You care about developer experience like a designer cares about pixels: latency, output schema, docs, the whole feel of it
- You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped features
- You move fast and close the loop - you'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper
