About this role

Role Overview

The Solutions Engineer position at LangChain in Chicago is a remote-friendly, full-time technical role designed for professionals with extensive industry experience. This position is ideal for candidates who thrive at the intersection of engineering, product, and sales, working directly with clients to bring complex AI systems to production.

Key Responsibilities

Take ownership of the technical win by partnering with account executives to conduct technical discovery, scope evaluations, and design proof-of-concept projects that mirror real-world client workloads.
Act as the primary technical authority during architecture reviews, security and infrastructure discussions, and head-to-head competitive evaluations.
Collaborate directly with customer engineering teams to co-architect and build production-ready artificial intelligence agents from initial prototype through final rollout.
Guide clients in operating and deploying complex agent-based applications, including conversational systems, multi-step workflows, and research agents.
Deliver technical training sessions, workshops, and product demonstrations tailored to developer audiences.
Provide post-sale advisory support on architecture, roadmap-level decisions, and best practices while identifying new account expansion opportunities.
Translate field insights into reusable proof-of-concept assets, example code, and cookbooks while feeding feedback directly to product teams.

Requirements

Bring six or more years of relevant technical experience in software engineering, solutions engineering, sales engineering, customer engineering, or founding and product engineering, preferably within a startup or scale-up environment.
Demonstrate proven capability in guiding the technical thread of a sales cycle, including discovery, competitive evaluations, and architecture reviews.
Possess the communication skills needed to explain intricate technical tradeoffs clearly, build trust with developers, and facilitate decisive customer action.
Exhibit a history of taking personal responsibility for client outcomes rather than simply offering recommendations.
Maintain a strong bias toward action and a readiness to independently resolve complex challenges.
Show a genuine enthusiasm for operating AI agents in live production settings rather than merely constructing basic demonstrations.

Nice to Have

Previous experience successfully deploying AI agents into production environments utilizing frameworks like LangChain or LangGraph.
Background in carrying a technical quota or collaborating closely alongside a sales team to impact pipeline goals.
Familiarity with large language model observability, evaluation, or safety guardrails.
Practical knowledge of major cloud infrastructure platforms such as AWS, GCP, or Azure, along with containers and basic Kubernetes concepts.
