Head of Brand
About the role
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.
Responsibilities
- 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
Requirements
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.
Qualifications
- Proven organic growth. You've moved the needle on search visibility and social reach for a technical product.
- 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.
Skills
- Understanding of developer mindset
- Experience owning brand for a developer-facing product
- Sharp, opinionated writing skills
- Organic growth expertise
- Experience working directly with founders
- Knowledge of LLMs as a distribution channel
