About Us
At LangChain, our mission is to make intelligent agents ubiquitous. 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 the role
We are seeking our second IT Engineer to join our growing team in New York. Our team laid the foundation for IT at LangChain, and this role is critical to helping us mature and scale that foundation as the company grows. You'll bring deep technical expertise to our fleet management and SaaS administration, with room to shape how we manage our fleet, identity, SaaS stack, and the automation that runs the business. The ideal candidate brings startup experience, thrives in ambiguity, loves a good problem, and is excited to build scalable systems that support our global team.

Infrastructure & Automation
Build and maintain our IT infrastructure and tech stack that scales with LangChain’s rapid growth
Drive automation initiatives to reduce toil and improve efficiency using scripts, APIs, and workflow tools
Implement monitoring and documentation practices that enable operational excellence
Client Platform Engineering
Reimagine how we deploy, configure, and manage our Mac fleet. MDM (Iru) is the foundation, not the entire solution however.
Design and build a secure, reliable, and maintainable desktop environment that replaces our current patchwork of one-off scripts with version-controlled, testable, and repeatable systems
Own our approach to custom security controls and application deployment across the fleet, so updates and configuration changes are consistent and easy to roll out at scale
Build the fleet management systems now so they hold up as headcount, and the fleet, keep growing
Security & Identity Management
Drive our identity strategy, implementing secure, scalable access controls following the principle of least privilege
Identify and implement security enhancements across our SaaS stack
Partner with our Security team to drive improvement of our enterprise security posture
SaaS Administration
Administer and optimize our growing SaaS stack, managing provisioning, access controls, and lifecycle management
Become IT's central administrator for LangSmith, our own product, developing deep fluency in its administration surface
Build automated workflows for LangSmith administration using its API paired with our automation tooling, reducing manual, toil-heavy admin work
Help IT stay fluent across the internal tools we run and support, including the LLM Gateway. Another LangChain product.
Core IT Operations
Provide support to employees globally across hardware, software, networking, and IT tools
Deliver great onboarding experiences for new hires, ensuring they have the right hardware, access, and setup so they can be productive from day one
What You'll Bring
5+ years of experience in IT engineering and systems administration
Deep proficiency with Okta and Okta Workflows
Fluency in at least one general-purpose programming language (Python, JavaScript, or similar) with demonstrated ability to write production-quality scripts and automation
Versed in the us of REST APIs, webhooks, and API authentication methods; you should be comfortable reading API documentation and building integrations between systems
Demonstrated ability to build meaningful automations that reduce manual work and improve IT operations
Hands-on experience with IaC using Terraform to manage and provision IT infrastructure and applications, and comfort applying changes within an existing Terraform codebase
Experience using coding agents (e.g. Claude Code) as part of your day-to-day engineering workflow to build and ship automation faster
Strong experience with a modern tech stack that includes Google Workspace, Slack, Notion, Claude, ChatGPT
Solid understanding of MDM platforms, and ideally experience going beyond baseline MDM with fleet/configuration management tooling to manage a fleet's security and application needs
Experience administering a large or complex SaaS stack, ideally including internal or AI/LLM-based products
Strong networking fundamentals (TCP/IP, DNS, VPNs, firewalls, switching, wireless, LAN/WAN)
Annual salary range: $150,000-$170,00 USD
