Success Engineer
You’ll be the technical partner customers count on for the long haul. Once an account is live on Firecrawl, you’re the one who keeps them winning: deepening how they use the product, unblocking the hard technical problems that come up, and turning a working integration into a growing one. This is a customer-facing engineering role measured in adoption, retention, and expansion, not tickets closed. You build, you deploy, you own the outcome.
Benefits
Salary Range: $209,000–$265,000 USD/year OTE
Equity Range: Competitive equity. Details shared during the process.
Legal
Location: San Francisco, CA (SF HQ). On-site, five days a week.
Job Type: Full-Time
Requirements
Experience: 3+ years in a customer-facing technical role or equivalent
Work Authorization: Must be authorized to work in the United States. We’re not able to sponsor US visas right now, though that may change down the line.
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.
We hit 8 figures in ARR in year one and more than doubled it in year two. We have 180k+ GitHub stars, putting us in the top 50 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, working out of SF HQ and our new Toronto Hub. 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 Do
•
Own the technical health of your accounts: keep customers succeeding, deepen their usage, and catch problems before they become churn
•
Get hands-on with the product against real customer data, build integrations, and solve the technical problems that keep accounts growing
•
Run technical discovery: diagnose where a customer’s extraction or pipeline breaks, and know whether it’s usage, a bug, or a real product gap
•
Turn technical wins into adoption and expansion, and partner with the revenue team to hit team targets
•
Be the trusted technical voice for your accounts over their whole lifecycle, and bring what you learn in the field back to product and engineering
•
Know when to solve it yourself and when to pull in engineering
What We’re Looking For
•
You’ve done customer success engineering, solutions, forward-deployed, or another customer-facing technical role, ideally at a developer, API, or AI-infra product
•
You’re technical enough to earn a developer’s respect: you can read code, use an API, and build a real POC or integration yourself
•
You’ve owned accounts over time and grown them, and can point to the technical work that drove adoption and expansion
•
You check before you build: you can tell user error from a bug from a real product gap, and you don’t turn every ask into a custom feature
•
You can translate between deep technical detail and business value without losing either audience
•
You move fast and close the loop. You’d rather ship a working fix against real data than perfect a doc
Backgrounds that often do well: customer success or solutions engineers at API/devtools companies. Customer-facing engineers who owned accounts from deployment through expansion. Technical account managers who actually built things. Ex-founders who sold and delivered their own product.
What We’re NOT Looking For
•
A pure backend engineer who doesn’t want to be in front of customers
•
A relationship-only CSM who can’t get technical
•
Someone who needs a fully-built playbook before they can run
A Note On Pace
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.

Interview Process
Application Review: Send us your work and a quick note on why this excites you. Tell us about an account you grew and the technical problems you solved to keep them winning. We care about what you’ve done, not where you went to school.
Intro Chat (~25 min): A quick conversation to get to know each other before we go deep. We’ll talk about what you’ve been working on, what drew you to Firecrawl, and what you’re looking for in your next role. Time for your questions too.
Technical & Customer Scenario Interview (~55 min): We’ll walk through a real customer scenario: how you’d handle a live technical question, deepen an account’s usage, and spot expansion opportunities. We’re looking for technical depth, customer instincts, and how you think about growing an account over time, not rehearsed pitches.
Founder Chat (~25 min): Culture, pace, ownership, and how you like to work. Time for your questions too.
Paid Work Trial (~40 Hours): Take on a real, scoped customer scenario with the team, paid at a contractor rate. Build an integration, solve an account problem, or run a technical discovery. It’s the truest signal for both sides. You see what the role actually feels like, and we see how you operate. We’ll flex around your current commitments.
Decision: We move fast after the trial.
If you want to be the engineer customers ask for by name, and the reason accounts stick and grow, at one of the fastest-growing AI infrastructure startups, this is your shot.
