About the role

Firecrawl is a web data API platform that converts URLs into clean, LLM-ready markdown or structured data. Founded in 2022 and backed by Y Combinator, it reached eight figures in ARR in its first year and recently closed a $75M Series B. The team is around 40 people across San Francisco and Toronto.

This Product Engineer owns Alexandria end to end, working directly with the founders. You'll listen to customer feedback, decide what gets built next, and ship the data provider integrations behind it — the role goes well beyond implementation and includes real product-strategy decisions.

Firecrawl runs with high autonomy: no layers, no committees, strong technical ownership and fast iteration.

Hybrid, three days a week on-site, in San Francisco or Toronto.
