Developers use us to reliably convert URLs into LLM-ready markdown or structured data with a single API call. In just over a year, we've hit 8 figures in ARR and 100k+ GitHub stars by building the fastest way for developers to get clean, structured web data. We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure for the AI era. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Own Firecrawl's brand positioning end-to-end — from how we describe ourselves on the homepage to how we show up in competitive comparisons and LLM recommendations Write and ship launch copy, product announcements, website updates, and social posts that actually land with a technical audience Grow and manage our presence on Twitter/X and LinkedIn — not just posting, but building a community and a point of view Run competitive analysis and translate it into messaging that differentiates us clearly — without marketing-speak Partner directly with founders and product to align brand with roadmap and GTM priorities Shape the content calendar and own the cadence of what goes out across every channel Think about discoverability beyond SEO — including how LLMs surface and recommend tools like ours What We're Looking For Someone who understands how developers think. Not just what they do — but how they evaluate tools, what they distrust, and what makes them share something with their team. You've built brand for a developer-facing product before and you have receipts. A writer first. The best brand work here will be in words — short‑form, sharp, opinionated. You write copy that sounds like a smart person talking, not a marketing team hedging. Proven organic growth. You've moved the needle on search visibility and social reach for a technical product. You know what Eric Ahrefs‑checks when he looks at your past companies — and yours holds up. Comfortable working directly with founders. No brand committee. No approval chain. You'll sit close to the people making product decisions and be expected to have a strong point of view on how we talk about what we're building. Thinks about LLMs as a distribution channel. You understand that discoverability now includes AI tools recommending products — and you know how to write for that world. Backgrounds that often do well: in‑house brand at a developer tools or infra company, head of marketing at an early‑stage API startup, founding marketer who owned everything from positioning to social. What We're NOT Looking For Brand strategists who hand off execution to someone else People who measure success in impressions and engagement rate over organic growth and real developer mindshare Anyone who needs a brand playbook handed to them before they can start We’re a small team doing a lot. Roles here are loosely defined on purpose — you’ll own things that don’t have a clear owner yet, and that’s a feature, not a bug. If you need your scope fully defined before you can move, this probably isn’t the right fit. If you want to build something that matters inside one of the fastest‑growing AI infrastructure companies in the world, let’s talk.
