Build and manage a partner pipeline, execute outbound outreach, facilitate integrations, and organize events to generate partner engagement.
Strong outbound communication skills, persistence, relationship instincts, organizational skills, and experience with ecosystem integrations or community programs.
Distribution Partnerships Lead Location: San Francisco (in-person, with travel for events) Type: Full-time About Firecrawl Firecrawl helps developers turn the web into clean, structured data for LLMs and apps. We’re building a product developers love — and we grow by shipping fast, staying close to users, and finding leverage. About the role We’re hiring a Distribution Partnerships Lead to build a partner channel that compounds: products and platforms that integrate Firecrawl and distribute it to their users. This is not a “manage inbound” role. You’ll create the pipeline, run the conversations, and drive integrations to launch. If you’re the kind of person who follows up (politely) until there’s a real answer — and then turns that answer into action — you’ll do well here. What you’ll do Build and own a pipeline of distribution partners (apps, platforms, devtools, AI products) who can embed Firecrawl Run outbound end-to-end: targeting, messaging, follow-ups, and creative ways to get meetings Turn “interesting” into “integrating”: align on value, define the integration path, and push deals to shipped launches Plan and execute events in SF (meetups, dinners, workshops, conference side-events) that produce high-quality partner conversations Create lightweight partner enablement assets (1-pagers, integration docs, launch checklists) to make execution frictionless Track pipeline rigorously and communicate progress + blockers clearly You might be a fit if you… Don’t take no for an answer (persistent, respectful, consistently follow through) Can write outbound that gets replies and keep momentum through multiple follow-up cycles Have strong relationship instincts with founders, product leaders, and GTM teams Move fast, stay organized, and ship outcomes (not just activity) Default to high agency: you spot gaps, propose solutions, and execute without waiting to be asked Communicate clearly and proactively — people shouldn’t be surprised by progress or problems Learn fast and use tools/AI to multiply your output Backgrounds that often do well Former founders Top-performing SDRs / outbound operators ready to own the full motion Partnerships / BD at an early-stage company where you built the playbook What success looks like A clear partner ICP + target list, with consistent meetings booked Repeatable outreach that converts to real partner commitments Integrations shipped (not just “promising conversations”) Events that reliably generate partner pipeline and deepen relationships A growing distribution channel that reaches users through partner products Bonus points Devtools / API / platform integration experience You’ve built ecosystem distribution (integrations, marketplaces, embedded offers) You’ve run events/community programs that drive measurable pipeline
