We build the foundation for agent engineering in the real world, helping developers move from prototypes to production-ready AI agents that teams can rely on. We began as widely adopted open-source tools and have grown to also offer a platform for building, evaluating, deploying, and operating agents at scale. With $125M raised at Series B from IVP, Sequoia, Benchmark, CapitalG, and Sapphire Ventures, we’re at a stage where we’re continuing to develop new products, growth is accelerating, and all team members have meaningful impact on what we build and how we work together. LangChain is a place where your contributions can shape how this technology shows up in the real world. Today, our platform includes LangSmith (Observability, Evaluation, Deployment, Fleet, and Sandboxes), our open source frameworks (LangChain, LangGraph, and Deep Agents), and the newly launched LangSmith Engine for autonomous agent improvement. We have 100M+ monthly open source downloads, 6,000+ active LangSmith customers, and 5 of the Fortune 10 use LangSmith in production (+ 35% of the Fortune 500 overall), including teams at Klarna, Clay, Coinbase, Workday, Lyft, Cloudflare, Harvey, Rippling, Vanta, LinkedIn, Monday.com, Nvidia, and Bridgewater. About Us: ## About the role In person 5 days/week in San Francisco We're looking for a Senior Fullstack Engineer for our commercial product LangSmith, an observability and evals platform.

Includes LangSmith Engine for automated issue detection and root cause analysis. Supports Python, TypeScript, Go, and Java SDKs. - **[LangGraph](https://www.langchain.com/)**: Open source framework for building production agents with low-level control, durable checkpointing, and support for human-in-the-loop, multi-agent swarms, and A2A/MCP protocols. - **[LangChain](https://www.langchain.com/)**: Original open source framework for building agents quickly with templates and any model provider. - **[Deep Agents](https://www.langchain.com/)**: Agent harness for autonomous, long-horizon tasks with built-in memory and concurrency. - **[Fleet](https://www.langchain.com/)**: No-code agent builder that lets non-technical users describe tasks in plain language; agents act across daily tools with enterprise security. ## Market Standing - **Valuation/Market Cap**: $1.25 billion (unicorn status, per November 2025 Series B round) - **Key Metric**: Total Funding – $160 million (Seed: $10M led by Benchmark; Series A: $25M led by Sequoia Capital; Series B: $125M led by IVP). Annual Revenue (LinkedIn estimate): $8.5 million. - **Notable Investors/Partners**: IVP (lead Series B), Benchmark (lead Seed), Sequoia Capital (lead Series A).
