Head of Brand

Head of Brand HEAD OF BRAND You'll own how Firecrawl shows up in the world — the positioning, the voice, the social presence, the launch copy, and everything in between. Right now, we're one of the fastest-growing developer tools on the internet. This role is about making sure the world knows it, understands it, and chooses us over everything else. Salary Range: $160,000–$210,000/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. You can explore how we calculate this here: https://www.firecrawl.dev/careers/compensation.) Equity Range: Up to 0.1% Location: San Francisco, CA or Remote (Americas, UTC-3 to UTC-10) Job Type: Full-Time Experience: 4+ years owning brand at a developer-facing or technical product company Visa: US Citizenship/Visa required ABOUT FIRECRAWL Firecrawl is the easiest way to extract data from the web. 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 A NOTE ON PACE 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 somethin ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
