About the Role We're looking for a
Developer Experience Engineer
to be the bridge between our product and the developers who use it. You'll build in public, create integrations, ship open source projects, and make sure every touchpoint—docs, demos, tutorials, landing pages—helps developers succeed with Firecrawl.

Create and improve developer documentation—make it clear, accurate, and useful
Film demos and walkthroughs for product launches and marketing content
Be a technical pair of eyes on marketing copy, landing pages, and announcements
Build landing pages and handle minor design work for campaigns and launches
Contribute to Launch Week setup, execution, and content creation
Engage with the developer community—GitHub issues, Discord, Twitter, wherever they are
Build in public and share what you're working on
Who You Are
3+ years as a software engineer, devrel, or similar technical role
You ship side projects and genuinely enjoy building things
You can write—technical content that's clear, concise, and helpful
You're comfortable on camera or willing to get there (demos, walkthroughs, etc.)
You have opinions about what makes good developer experience
You're active in the developer community—open source, Twitter, blogs, whatever your thing is
Can context-switch between code, content, and creative work without losing momentum
Bonus: Experience with web scraping, AI/LLM tooling, or developer tools
