Day 2 Build — Firecrawl MCP + a Remote Job Scrape

What I scraped: I connected the Firecrawl MCP server to Claude Code and scraped a remote job board for Enterprise Account Director roles (my own title) paying $173K+. Came back with 22 listings in a clean CSV; title, company, salary, location, and a direct link to each. Adobe, Cision, Yubico, Pendo all in there. Screenshot below.

What surprised me: I didn't tell Claude Code which Firecrawl tool to use. I just described what I wanted in plain English and it picked the right one on its own; mapping the site first, then extracting structured data into columns. When one scraping approach stalled mid-run it caught it and self-corrected without me stepping in. Watching it run a couple agents at once on different tasks was the part that actually made me sit up.

One use case idea: pointing this at the same job boards but for my Airbnb side; scraping comparable Lincoln Park short-term rental listings to pull nightly rates, amenities, and review counts into one sheet for pricing benchmarks. Could do the same for any client account I want to research fast.

Whole thing only cost about 30 of my 500 free credits 😅
