Electric Bike Engineer Jobs (NOW HIRING)

You'll build the systems that let anyone turn the open web into a search index. Firecrawl's search product is one of our fastest-growing surfaces, and we need engineers who can make crawling, ranking, and retrieval fast, reliable, and cheap at scale. You'll own real infrastructure from day one — not tickets in a backlog.

Salary Range: $190,000-$260,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees in San Francisco, CA. Compensation outside the U.S. is adjusted fairly based on your country's cost of living.)

Equity Range: Up to 0.05%

Location: San Francisco, CA or Remote (Americas, UTC-3 to UTC-10)

Job Type: Full-Time

Experience: 3+ years building production backend or infra systems

Visa: Must be authorized to work in the US or eligible remote-hire regions. We are not sponsoring visas at this time.

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 - 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 147k+ GitHub stars, 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. 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.

• Design and build the crawling, indexing, and retrieval systems behind Firecrawl Search
• Push down latency and cost per query while search volume grows
• Improve ranking quality and freshness for LLM-driven retrieval
• Own services end to end — design, ship, monitor, and iterate in production
• Work directly with the Head of Search and the rest of the search team on the roadmap

• You've built and operated backend or distributed systems at real scale
• You care about latency, cost, and correctness in equal measure
• You're comfortable owning ambiguous problems and turning them into shipped systems
• You move fast and close the loop — you'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper

• Someone who needs a fully-specced ticket to start
• Someone who wants to specialize narrowly and hand off everything else
• Someone who optimizes for process over shipping

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.

• Salary that makes sense — $190,000–$260,000/year, based on impact, not tenure
