Founding Emerging Talent Recruiter

At LangChain, our mission is to enable every company to own its intelligence. We believe agents will transform how companies operate, and we're building the foundation to make that future possible. Our open-source harnesses and LangSmith platform give developers and enterprises the infrastructure to run, improve, and govern agents at scale.

We've raised $460M to date, with our most recent funding round valuing the company at $3B, backed by leading investors including Sequoia, Benchmark, IVP, and CapitalG. As we continue to expand our platform and tackle some of the hardest challenges in agent engineering, every team member has the opportunity to make a meaningful impact and help shape both our technology and the future of the industry.

More than 7,000 organizations rely on LangSmith, from fast-growing startups to Fortune 500 enterprises, including NVIDIA, Bridgewater, LinkedIn, Workday, and Rippling. We're just getting started on making high-performing agents easier to build and manage at scale.
