About this role

Growth Engineer, Product Growth

You'll write the code that turns developers discovering Firecrawl into developers who can't live without it. This is a full-stack engineering role pointed entirely at growth: you'll own the signup, activation, onboarding, and conversion experience, and you'll be measured on the funnel metrics you move, not just the features you ship. You'll instrument, experiment, build, and iterate on the product surfaces that drive our PLG motion. You'll own real conversion outcomes from day one.

What You'll Do:

Own the growth surfaces end to end: signup, activation, onboarding, and conversion

Instrument the funnel, run experiments, and ship the changes that move real metrics

Build full-stack, from the frontend a developer first touches to the backend that powers it

Treat conversion and activation as your number, you own it, measure it, and move it

Work close to the data, form hypotheses, test them, and iterate fast on what works

What We're Looking For:

You're a strong full-stack engineer who's worked on growth or PLG products

You've personally owned a conversion, activation, or funnel metric, and moved it, not just shipped features someone else measured

You think like a scientist: hypothesis, experiment, measure, iterate, and you've run real A/B tests you can talk about, including what you learned when they didn't go as planned

Bonus if you've shipped in-product growth surfaces at a dev-tools or SaaS company (onboarding, activation, upgrade flows, in-product guidance) or built conversion pages that measurably moved signup, not just static pages that shipped

Bonus for experience with our stack (Next.js, React, Tailwind, TypeScript, Vercel, PostgreSQL, and the Anthropic Claude API) or for having built with LLMs in production: prompt engineering, tool use, inference pipelines

You've worked on developer-facing products, SDKs, playgrounds, docs surfaces, APIs, and understand how developers actually adopt tools

You have a track record of staying with your work long enough to see it through (we look for real tenure, not a trail of short stints)

You move fast and close the loop - you'd rather ship, measure, and iterate than perfect on paper

What We're Not Looking For:

A growth marketer, this is an engineering role that writes production code

A backend engineer with no interest in the product surface or the metrics

Someone who's only ever shipped features without owning an outcome

A pattern of short stints, we want someone who commits
