Does anyone know of any good orchestrators for Firecracker VMs? While the technology is great, the CLI and API are still a bit too complex and low-level to implement some basic use cases in production.

This repository enables the use of a container runtime, containerd, to manage Firecracker microVMs. Like traditional containers, Firecracker microVMs offer fast start-up and shut-down and minimal overhead. Unlike traditional containers, however, they can provide an additional layer of isolation via the KVM hypervisor.
And of course AWS Fargate and Lambda use this tech under the hood transparently, so that's always an option if you don't want to host and operate it yourself.
