A lot of the curves I’m cutting aren’t coming out great. After zooming in in FireControl I can see the lines aren’t perfect curves - is this correct? I’m importing an svg into sheetcam & exporting g code from there.
Yes. In most cases g-code is a series of short lines so that is what you are seeing. It should cut out fine. You can smooth things based on your settings in your Manufacturing set up. If you are using Fusion 360, smoothing helps:
SheetCAM likely has a similar feature.

Firecontrol does not accurately render curves in the visualizer. They are always shown as straight line segments, but they should cut as a smooth curve, as long as the original file is a smooth curve.
