Firecrawl The Technical Compliance Program Manager builds the operational bridge between legal requirements and technical implementation at Firecrawl. The role translates legal, security, and policy requirements into practical technical controls, monitoring, and documentation for engineers.

Responsibilities

Translate legal, security, and policy requirements into practical technical processes, controls, and documentation engineers will actually use
Implement the compliance-related technical requirements the legal team defines, and own them once they're live
Build and maintain the monitoring and controls that show our systems do what our policies and commitments require
Coordinate cross-functional compliance projects end to end across engineering, legal, sales, and ops, from novel requirement to shipped system
Document how our technical systems satisfy company policies and external obligations, in a way that survives a customer security review or an auditor's questions
Find the gaps before someone else does, escalate what matters, and drive it to closed
Build the metrics and reporting that tell leadership where we actually stand
Automate compliance wherever it's practical. You'd rather build a control that runs itself than police a process by hand

Qualification

You turn ambiguity into structureYou're a self-starterYou're an AI super userBonusWhat We're NOT Looking For

Required

You've run technical programs across engineering teams and shipped operational systems, not just tracked them in a spreadsheet
You work fluently with software engineers and can hold your own on how systems actually work
You turn ambiguity into structure. Novel, undefined requirements are the fun part, not the blocker
You're technically curious and go find out how something works rather than waiting for someone to explain it
You're extraordinarily organized and you close loops without being chased
You're an excellent communicator in both directions: you can make a lawyer understand an architecture and an engineer understand an obligation
You're a self-starter. Nobody is going to hand you a plan. You'll be designing this function while running it
You're an AI super user. This is a hard requirement, not a nice-to-have. You reach for AI to move faster by default
Bonus: direct experience with legal, regulatory, privacy, or policy requirements. Preferred, not required. We care more about how you think than what frameworks you've memorized.
What We're NOT Looking For
Someone who runs compliance as a checklist and hands engineering a list of no's
A pure legal or GRC background with no real technical depth
