About the role

What You'll Do

  • Own the technical side of the sales cycle: discovery, solution architecture, demos, and proof of concepts
  • Get hands-on with the product in front of customers, show them exactly how Firecrawl solves their problem
  • Answer the deep technical questions that make or break a deal, and know when to pull in engineering
  • Build POCs and technical proposals that turn "interesting" into "signed"
  • Be the trusted technical voice for prospects, and bring their feedback back to product and engineering
  • Partner closely with the revenue team to move deals forward and hit team targets

What We're Looking For

  • You've done technical pre-sales, solutions engineering, or a customer-facing technical role, ideally at a developer or API product
  • You're technical enough to earn a developer's respect: you can read code, use an API, and build a real POC yourself
  • You can translate between deep technical detail and business value without losing either audience
  • You're energized by customer conversations and comfortable owning your part of a deal's outcome
  • You move fast and close the loop - you'd rather ship a POC and iterate than perfect a deck

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience at a developer or API product
