LangChain is building the infrastructure that powers the next generation of AI applications. Our tools are used by thousands of developers and teams to build, debug, and ship production-grade LLM-powered products.
As our product surface area grows, so does the need for a cohesive, scalable, and high-quality UI foundation. That’s where Design Systems comes in. We’re looking for a Design Systems Engineer to help build, own, and evolve LangChain’s component library—the foundation that our frontend teams rely on to ship fast without sacrificing quality, accessibility, or consistency.
This role sits at the intersection of Design and Engineering. You’ll work closely with designers, product engineers, and platform teams to turn design intent into robust, reusable components and tooling that scale across the product.
You’ll have ownership, influence, and your work will be directly consumed across LangChain’s products.
Build out LangChain’s component library
Design and implement reusable, composable React components that are flexible, accessible, and production-ready
Partner closely with designers to translate design systems, tokens, and interaction patterns into code
Build reliable UI quality systems
Develop design system tooling and improve workflows around theming, tokens, versioning, testing, and component discovery (e.g. Storybook)
Make thoughtful architectural decisions that enable accessibility, performance, consistency, and maintainability across LangChain’s UI stack
Improve UI build and test workflows
Optimize build performance, bundling strategy, and package versioning for the component library
Maintain tooling for testing, dependency management of the UI app
Extensive experience building modular, composable, and well-documented component libraries and/or design systems
Deep knowledge of React, TypeScript, HTML, and CSS, familiarity with: styling approaches (CSS Modules, CSS-in-JS, Tailwind, Sass, etc.) and design system toolings (Storybook, Chromatic, tokens pipelines, etc.)
Experience collaborating closely with designers and non-engineering partners
Strong attention to detail and a high bar for craft and genuine passion for accessibility and inclusive design
Familiarity with testing UI components and visual regression testing
Annual salary range: $180,000 - $240,000
