Talent Systems and Recruiting Automation Lead

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.

Today, LangChain, LangGraph, LangSmith, and Agent Builder are used by teams shipping real AI products across startups and large enterprises. Millions of developers trust LangChain to power AI teams at companies like Replit, Clay, Coinbase, Workday, Lyft, Cloudflare, Harvey, Rippling, Vanta, and 35% of the Fortune 500.

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.

LangChain is scaling quickly, and we need a recruiting engine that not only keeps up but helps pave the way. We’re looking for a Talent Systems & Recruiting Automation Lead to design and operate the systems that power hiring across the company.

This role owns the architecture of our recruiting machine — ATS workflows, automation, recruiting data infrastructure, and the operating rhythms that keep hiring on track. Your job is to eliminate manual work, design intelligent recruiting workflows, and enable our team to hire exceptional talent faster. You’ll also evolve our Recruiting Coordination function into a high-leverage operations team that owns workflow execution, automation, and candidate experience across the hiring funnel.
