About the job
This role focuses on working directly with companies building and running AI agents in production, helping to transform ideas and prototypes into reliable systems. It's a hands-on, technical position that partners with customer engineers throughout the entire lifecycle, from pre-sales evaluations to post-deployment advisory. The core objective is to achieve technical success, co-design agent architectures, and assist customers in operating agents reliably at scale using the LangChain suite. This position sits at the intersection of engineering, product, and go-to-market, influencing LangChain's adoption and providing valuable field insights back into the platform.

- Run technical demos, trainings, and workshops for developer audiences.
- Surface field feedback and contribute reusable patterns, cookbooks, and example code.
- Occasionally contribute code upstream to improve customer outcomes.
Requirements
- 3+ years in a relevant technical role (software engineering, customer engineering, solutions engineering, founding/product engineering), ideally in a startup or scale-up.
- Strong Python, JavaScript, and systems fundamentals.
- Experience designing agent-based or LLM-powered applications beyond simple API calls, including multi-step workflows, orchestration, and failure handling.
- Comfortable working directly with customers during POCs, architecture reviews, and technical evaluations.
- Ability to clearly explain technical tradeoffs and build trust with developer audiences.
