Firecrawl

Design Engineer You'll own the look, feel, and experience of Firecrawl across our entire platform — from the core product UI to docs, playgrounds, and marketing pages. You take ideas from rough sketches to production-ready pages, and you ship them fast. If you care about motion, precision, and performance, you'll thrive here. Salary Range: $160,000–$240,000/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 0.15% Location: San Francisco, CA (Hybrid) Job Type: Full-Time Experience: 3+ years 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 a year, we've hit 8 figures in ARR and 100k+ GitHub stars by building the fastest way for developers to get LLM-ready data. We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure super-intelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Build beautiful, fast UIs using Next.js, Tailwind, and Framer Motion Create and optimize product pages and interactive playgrounds Maintain and scale our internal design system across all surfaces Own UX and polish across marketing, docs, and app interfaces Collaborate directly with founders to ship high-impact features Lead proof-of-concept work for new ideas and experiences What We're Looking For A builder with a sharp eye and obsessive attention to motion, interaction, and polish. You go from concept to finished product independently. You don't wait for a spec to be perfect — you ship, iterate, and make things better every day. You've worked in fast environments before and you like it that way. Strong with Next.js, Tailwind, and Framer Motion. These are our core stack. You don't need to be an expert in all three on day one, but you should be dangerous in at least two and excited to go deep on the third. Obsessed with developer experience. Our users are developers. You understand that great design in a dev tools context means clarity, speed, and zero friction — not flashy gimmicks. You ship live projects with real users. Portfolio pieces are fine. But we want to see things people actually use — not just Dribbble shots that never saw production. Backgrounds that often do well: Design engineers at developer tools companies, frontend engineers with strong design instincts, designers who code and ship their own work, or indie builders who've launched products end-to-end. What We're NOT Looking For Pure designers who don't code. This role lives in the codebase. If you need an engineer to implement your designs, this isn't the right fit. People who optimize for pixel-perfect mockups over shipped product. We value speed and iteration. If you spend a week in Figma before touching code, you'll be frustrated here. Someone who needs a lot of structure or process. We don't have a design team, a sprint cadence, or a formal review pipeline. You'll get a problem, some context, and the trust to go solve it. A Note On Pace 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. Benefits & Perks Available to all employees Salary that makes sense — $150,000–$200,000/year (SF, U.S.-based), based on impact, not tenure Own a piece — Up to 0.1% equity in what you're helping build Generous PTO — 15 days mandatory, anything after 24 days, just ask (holidays excluded); take the time you need to recharge Parental leave — 12 weeks fully paid, for moms and dads Wellness stipend — $100/month for the gym, therapy, massages, or whatever keeps you human Learning & Developmen

Dev Rel (Docs & YouTube) You'll be the person developers learn Firecrawl from — through docs that actually help them build, YouTube tutorials they watch start to finish, and community presence that makes them feel like they're building alongside us, not just consuming our API. We have the product. We need the person who makes it impossible to not understand. Salary Range: $150,000–$200,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees in San Francisco, CA.

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 technical documentation — rewriting, restructuring, and maintaining docs so both humans and AI agents can discover and use the product effectively Run and grow our YouTube channel — scripting, filming, editing, and publishing a consistent cadence of tutorials, walkthroughs, and demos developers actually finish watching Build a presence in the AI engineering and open source community — on social, at conferences, in Discord servers, in the places developers actually hang out Translate developer feedback into product insights and route them clearly to engineering Create content that drives adoption — not just views — by meeting developers where they are in the build process Show up on camera and on stage: conference talks, livestreams, Twitter Spaces, wherever our developers are What We're Looking For An engineer who can teach. You have a software engineering background and have built with APIs, SDKs, or developer tools. You know what it feels like to hit a wall in someone else's docs — and you know how to fix it. A YouTube operator. You've owned a technical YouTube channel before — not just appeared in videos. You know the full workflow: scripting for retention, filming efficiently, editing for technical audiences, and building a publishing cadence that doesn't collapse under pressure. Fluent in the AI/ML developer ecosystem. Agents, LLM tooling, orchestration frameworks, RAG pipelines — you speak this language and you've built in it. You understand where Firecrawl fits and why developers reach for it. Thinks about docs as infrastructure. You understand that in an agent-first world, documentation needs to be structured for machines as much as humans. You have opinions about how to do that. Community-connected. You have real relationships in the AI engineering or open source world — not just followers. You can open doors for Firecrawl that cold outreach can't. Backgrounds that often do well: DevRel at an API-first or developer tools company, software engineer who started a technical YouTube channel, open source contributor with a content track record. What We're NOT Looking For Content marketers who have never shipped code People who measure DevRel success in video views over developer adoption Anyone waiting for a content calendar to be handed to them before they start creating 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 is

Executive Assistant to the CEO You'll be the person who makes sure nothing falls through the cracks in our CEO's world — his calendar, his inbox, his commitments, his time. This is a role built on trust, precision, and quiet excellence. You won't be asked to reinvent the wheel. You'll be asked to make sure every wheel turns exactly when it should, every single day. You'll report directly to the CEO. Salary Range: $150,000–$180,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees in San Francisco, CA.) Equity Range: Up to 0.05% Location: San Francisco, CA (In-person) Job Type: Full-Time Experience: 3+ years as an Executive Assistant, or equivalent operational support experience Visa: US Citizenship/Visa required About Firecrawl Firecrawl is the easiest way to extract data from the web.

We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure super-intelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Own the CEO's calendar with zero ambiguity. Every meeting has a purpose, an agenda, the right attendees, and the right prep attached — or it doesn't get scheduled. You'll manage competing requests, protect deep work time, and make judgment calls about what deserves the CEO's attention and what doesn't. The calendar is your system, and it runs flawlessly. Triage the inbox so nothing gets lost. The CEO's inbox is high-volume and high-stakes. You'll build and maintain a triage system that surfaces what's urgent, drafts responses where appropriate, and ensures that important threads — investor follow-ups, customer escalations, partnership opportunities — never stall because they got buried. Inbox zero isn't aspirational; it's the standard. Ensure every commitment has follow-through. Prepare briefing materials and context docs before key meetings. Capture action items afterward and track them to completion. Coordinate logistics for board meetings, investor updates, and external engagements with the kind of attention to detail that makes people wonder how everything always runs so smoothly. Handle sensitive information with complete discretion. You'll have access to confidential conversations, financials, personnel decisions, and strategic plans. Discretion isn't a nice-to-have — it's the foundation of this role. You protect the CEO's trust and the company's confidence by never letting sensitive information travel where it shouldn't. Take care of the operational details. Travel arrangements, expense reports, scheduling logistics, and the hundred small things that keep an executive's work life running. You don't see these as beneath you — you see them as the backbone of everything else working. Use AI tools to make your systems even tighter. We're an AI company, and we expect you to use AI tools — Claude, ChatGPT, automation platforms — to streamline your own workflows. If there's a repetitive task, your instinct should be to systematize it. You don't need to be an engineer, but you should be the kind of person who's already experimented with these tools. Earn deeper context over time. This role starts tactical — owning the calendar, inbox, and logistics — and expands as trust is built. Over time, you'll gain visibility into strategic priorities, leadership dynamics, and company planning. The more you prove your judgment and discretion, the more context and responsibility you'll earn. What We're Looking For Borderline obsessive about details and follow-through. You're the person who triple-checks the meeting link, confirms the dinner reservation, and flags the scheduling conflict before anyone else notices. Nothing slips. That's not a goal for you — it's how you're wired. High emotional intelligence and low ego. You read rooms well. You know when

Forward Deployed Engineer (Integrations) You'll work directly with customers to get Firecrawl integrated, running, and scaling inside their products. That means writing real code, debugging real systems, and turning customer needs into shipped solutions — fast. This is not a support role. It's a technical ownership role with a customer face.

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 technical integration delivery for priority customers — from first API call through production scale Write TypeScript/Node.js code to build, customize, and debug integrations with payments systems, cloud platforms, and third-party APIs Debug complex real-world issues live with customers — crawling edge cases, data pipeline failures, infra constraints Build reusable solutions and playbooks that turn one-off customer problems into repeatable wins for the team Translate customer friction into clear product and engineering insights and route them to the right people Work closely with core engineering on reliability, performance, and DX improvements driven by what you're seeing in the field What We're Looking For A strong TypeScript/Node.js engineer. You write clean, production-quality code and you're fast. You've built integrations with external APIs and you understand what makes them brittle. Experienced with payments and cloud platforms. You've worked with Stripe or similar billing systems. You've integrated with GCP, Vercel, or comparable cloud providers. You don't need to Google the basics. Solid on backend and data fundamentals. You can design a system, model a schema, and reason about data at scale. You know when to reach for a relational database and when not to. Security-aware. You understand the common auth patterns — OAuth, API keys, JWTs — and you know where the traps are when integrating third-party systems. High ownership with customers. You're comfortable in ambiguous, high-stakes situations with real customers. You communicate clearly, set expectations honestly, and follow through. Backgrounds that often do well: integration or platform engineers, solutions engineers who write real code, early engineers at API-first startups who owned customer-facing technical work. What We're NOT Looking For Engineers who hand off customer problems to someone else after the first call Solutions engineers who demo well but can't ship production code Anyone who needs a fully-scoped ticket before they can start moving A Note On Pace We're a small team doing a lot.

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.

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.

Head of Marketing You'll own the growth engine behind how Firecrawl acquires and activates users — across content, SEO/GEO, product marketing, partnerships, social, and emerging agent-first distribution channels. This is not a narrow channel role. You'll run the operating system behind our signup growth: pacing, channel mix, performance diagnosis, prioritization, and team execution. You'll work closely with Eric, who owns growth strategy and the major bets, while you own turning that strategy into a machine that performs every single week.

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 weekly signup pacing and growth across core acquisition channels — you're accountable to the number, not just the strategy Build a defensible signup mix across SEO/GEO, partnerships, brand, and other durable channels that compound over time Run cross-channel planning, prioritization, and execution — including managing channel owners across content, PMM, partnerships, brand, and distribution Run weekly performance reviews: diagnose misses, identify what's working, and ship corrective action plans fast Partner with product and engineering on activation, onboarding, and growth constraints that live outside marketing's direct control Keep Eric focused on strategy and major bets — not on stitching the whole machine together week to week What We're Looking For A true operator, not a strategist. You've owned a growth number before — not advised on one. You know the difference between a channel that's underperforming and a channel that needs to be killed, and you make that call without waiting for someone else to tell you. Experienced running marketing for a technical or developer-facing product. You understand how developers discover tools, evaluate them, and decide to actually use them. You've built growth systems for an audience that hates being marketed to. Strong management instincts. You can run a team with a mix of channel specialists, create cadence, drive accountability, and keep everyone moving in the same direction — without needing perfect information to do it. Fluent in modern distribution. SEO/GEO, content, product launches, AI-native discovery — you have real operational depth across multiple channels, not just talking points. Good messaging taste. You're not a pure brand specialist, but you know what good looks like. You can maintain a high bar across everything that goes out without being the bottleneck. Comfortable working directly with founders. No marketing committee. No approval layers. You'll have a direct line to Eric and be expected to push back, make calls, and own the outcome. Backgrounds that often do well: head of growth or marketing at a developer tools or API-first company, early marketing leader at a PLG SaaS startup, founder-marketer who built a growth engine from scratch. What We're NOT Looking For Marketing leaders who are great at strategy decks and weak on execution People who need a fully-staffed team under them before they can move the needle Anyone who mistakes activity — campaigns launched,

Product Engineer — Search You'll own the developer-facing search experience at Firecrawl — taking the retrieval and ranking improvements coming out of research and shipping them as a product developers can't stop using. This isn't a pure research role and it isn't a pure backend role. You sit at the intersection: you understand how the systems work deeply enough to improve them, and you care about how they feel to use obsessively enough to make them great. At a 26-person company, the gap between research and shipped product is exactly one person. You're that person. Salary Range: $180,000–$290,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees.

We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure superintelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Ship search improvements that developers notice. Take retrieval and ranking improvements from research and turn them into product changes that make developers say "this just works." You know that a 200ms latency improvement isn't just a benchmark win — it's a better product. You ship the whole thing: the API change, the docs update, the example that makes it obvious. Own the search API end-to-end. You're responsible for how Firecrawl's search endpoint feels to integrate, use, and build on. That means response format, latency, error handling, pagination, filtering — every surface a developer touches. You're the person who notices when something is confusing before a user files a GitHub issue about it. Dogfood relentlessly. You build things with the API before you ship them. You feel the friction before your users do. You read every GitHub issue, every Discord thread, every support ticket that touches search — not because someone asked you to, but because that's where the product signal lives. Translate research into product decisions. You work closely with the Search/IR and RL Research Engineers. You understand their work well enough to make good product calls about what to prioritize, what to expose to users, and what to keep under the hood. You ask good questions. You push back when something technically elegant would make the API worse. Run fast product experiments. You form a hypothesis about what would make search better for developers, instrument it, ship it, measure it, and decide quickly. You're comfortable making calls with imperfect data because waiting for perfect data means shipping nothing. Raise the bar on developer experience. Firecrawl's users are technical. They have high standards. They notice when response formats are inconsistent, when error messages are unhelpful, when documentation doesn't match behavior. You notice too — and you fix it before they have to ask. What We're Looking For Obsessive about developer experience. You think about DX the way a designer thinks about pixels. Latency, response structure, error messages, API ergonomics — these things matter to you on a visceral level. You've built APIs that developers loved and you know the difference between an API that works and one that delights. Speaks both product and engineering fluently. You can read a ranking algorithm and understand its implications for the search experience. You can write

Product Researcher You'll be the person who figures out what Firecrawl should build next — and why. Right now, our engineers are shipping great infrastructure, and our support and sales teams are handling inbound well. But the bigger product bets — the ones that turn a good tool into a dominant platform — are stalling because nobody has the bandwidth to do real customer discovery. We have a state-of-the-art commercial research paper search endpoint with one customer using it. We have answers, reranking, monitoring — strong features that aren't getting the focused attention they deserve. You fix that. This isn't a PM role where you write tickets and manage a backlog. You're in the field. You talk to customers — a lot of them. You find the patterns, source the insights, and bring them back to the team in a way that changes what we prioritize. You're the bridge between what developers are actually trying to do and what we're building. Salary Range: $160,000–$230,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees.

We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure superintelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Talk to customers constantly. This is the job. You're running 15-25 customer conversations a week — discovery calls, user interviews, onboarding sessions, churn conversations. You're not surveying people. You're having real conversations that uncover what they're building, where they're stuck, and what would make Firecrawl indispensable to their workflow. You develop a sixth sense for what customers say versus what they actually need. Find the insights that change priorities. You don't just report what customers said — you synthesize it. You spot the patterns across dozens of conversations and turn them into clear, actionable product recommendations. "Here's the use case we're missing, here's how big it is, here's what we'd need to build, here's why it matters now." You bring receipts. Own customer discovery for new product surfaces. When the team is exploring a new direction — a new endpoint, a new pricing model, a new market segment — you're the person who goes deep. You map the landscape, talk to the right people, and come back with a clear picture of whether it's worth pursuing and how to win. You've done this at the 0-to-1 stage and you've done it at scale. You know the difference. Be the voice of the customer in every product conversation. You're in the room when product and engineering decisions are being made. Not to slow things down — to make them sharper. You bring real user context that prevents the team from building technically impressive things nobody asked for. Close the feedback loop. When the team ships something based on your research, you go back to the customers who informed it. You validate. You measure. You learn. Discovery isn't a one-time phase — it's a continuous cycle that compounds the more you do it. Create content from customer conversations. The best product research doubles as marketing. Customer stories, use case write-ups, product positioning insights — you naturally produce content that helps the team sell and market, not just build. What We're Looking For Ex-founder energy.

Research Engineer — Reinforcement Learning You'll bring reinforcement learning to Firecrawl's core product — building the training infrastructure, reward pipelines, and fine-tuning systems that make our models meaningfully better at extracting, understanding, and structuring web data. This isn't theoretical RL research. You'll build your own training infra, run fast experiments, ship models to production, and bridge the gap between classical RL approaches and modern LLM agent systems. If you care as much about training throughput as you do about reward design, this is the role. Salary Range: $180,000–$290,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees.

We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure superintelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Build training infrastructure and reward pipelines from scratch. Design and operate the systems that train and evaluate Firecrawl's models. You'll own the full loop — data collection, reward modeling, training runs, evaluation, and deployment. You build the infra yourself because you're the one who needs it to work. Fine-tune models to achieve state-of-the-art results. Take foundation models and make them dramatically better at web data extraction, content understanding, and structured output generation. You know how to get from "decent fine-tune" to "best-in-class" and you have the patience and rigor to close that gap. Bridge LLM agents and classical RL. The most interesting problems at Firecrawl sit at the intersection of modern LLM-based agents and classical RL techniques. You'll design reward signals for agent behaviors, apply RL methods to improve multi-step agent workflows, and figure out where traditional RL approaches outperform prompting — and vice versa. Run fast experiments and iterate. You design experiments that test meaningful hypotheses, run them quickly, and make decisions based on results. You don't spend weeks on experiment infrastructure before getting a single result. Speed of iteration is a core part of how you work. Communicate clearly to non-RL people. RL can be opaque. You translate your work into language that engineers, product people, and leadership can understand and act on. You know how to explain why a reward function matters without requiring everyone to read the paper. Collaborate closely with the team. Work directly with the Search/IR-focused Research Engineer and the engineering team to connect RL improvements with search, ranking, and the broader product roadmap. What We're Looking For Builds their own training infra and reward pipelines. You don't wait for an ML platform team to set things up. You build the training loops, reward models, data pipelines, and evaluation frameworks yourself — because you understand that infra choices directly affect the quality of results. You've operated GPU clusters, managed training runs, and debugged convergence issues in production. Can fine-tune models to SOTA.

You understand the full fine-tuning lifecycle — data curation, training dynamics, hyperparameter sensitivity, evaluation methodology — and you have the taste

Research Engineer — Search/IR Research Engineer (Focused on Search/IR) You'll own the search and information retrieval systems at the core of Firecrawl — the infrastructure that determines how we find, rank, index, and serve web content at scale. Retrieval quality is Firecrawl's deepest moat. As AI agents increasingly depend on multi-step search and enrichment, the gap between good retrieval and great retrieval compounds. You're the person who closes that gap — and widens it against every competitor. This is a full-stack search role where you'll build and operate everything from ingestion pipelines to serving layers. If you've built search indexes at massive scale and care deeply about ranking quality, freshness, and retrieval speed, this is the role. Salary Range: $180,000–$290,000/year (Range shown is for U.S.-based employees. 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 0.15% Location: San Francisco, CA or Remote (Americas, UTC-3 to UTC-10) Job Type: Full-Time Experience: 3+ years building search/IR systems at scale Visa: US Citizenship/Visa required for SF; N/A for Remote 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 a year, we've hit 8 figures in ARR and 100k+ GitHub stars by building the fastest way for developers to get LLM-ready data. We're a small, fast-moving, technical team building essential infrastructure superintelligence will use to gather data on the web. We ship fast and deep. What You'll Do Build and operate search indexes at massive scale. Design, build, and maintain the indexing infrastructure that powers Firecrawl's core product. You'll handle billions of documents and care about every millisecond of latency and every byte of storage. Own the full stack from ingestion to serving. You don't just build one piece — you own the entire pipeline. Ingestion, processing, indexing, ranking, query understanding, and serving. When something breaks at 3am, you know where to look because you built it. Solve ranking, relevance, and query understanding. Make sure the right content surfaces for the right queries. You'll build and iterate on ranking models, relevance scoring, and query parsing systems that directly impact product quality. Tackle freshness, dedup, and incremental indexing. The web changes constantly. You'll build systems that keep our index fresh without re-crawling everything, deduplicate content intelligently, and handle incremental updates at scale without rebuilding from scratch. Run experiments and ship results to production. You design experiments, measure results rigorously, and ship winners to production fast. You don't need someone to tell you what to try next — you have a backlog of ideas and the judgment to prioritize them. Collaborate closely with the team. Work directly with the RL-focused Research Engineer and the engineering team to connect search/IR improvements with model training and the broader product roadmap. What We're Looking For Has built search indexes at massive scale. Not a tutorial project — real indexes serving real traffic with real latency requirements. You've dealt with the hard problems: sharding strategies, index compaction, schema evolution, and the operational complexity of keeping billions of documents queryable and fast. Hands-on with ranking, relevance, and query understanding. You've built or meaningfully improved ranking systems. You understand BM25, learned ranking, embedding-based retrieval, and when to use which. You can reason about relevance tradeoffs and you've shipped ranking changes that moved metrics in production. Owns the full stack: ingestion → index → serving. You're not a specialist who only touches one layer. You've built and operated the entire search p
