Josiah Coad Applying for Deployed Engineer · Dallas

Hi, LangChain team. 🦜

I'm Josiah Coad. I founded Marky, a GenAI product I scaled to 200K users / $2M, with our entire AI backend running on LangStack at 10K+ daily invocations. I've followed you from day one. I've built our company on your stack, collaborated with your team, and advocated for you throughout. This page shows how much I'd love to be part of your team.

"I migrated my entire codebase to LangStack after doing it all myself for two years and it's changed everything. I'm just kicking myself for the two years wasted doing it myself rather than using the frameworks LangStack provides."

30-minute call on LGP pricing changes after billing went live. Discussed Marky's usage profile, what would scale, what wouldn't, and what would keep us on the platform.

★ The inflection
Migrated Marky's entire AI backend to the LangStack
After two years building agents the hard way. Single decision that shaped everything that followed: 3x approval rate, 2x conversion to paid, and the start of every event above.

Foundation
Founded Marky. Started following Lance Martin's videos and reading every LangChain / LangSmith release. Built AI workflows from scratch for ~18 months before the LangStack migration.

Talks & Teaching

~6 years ago I founded the largest data-science hackathon and taught at it. I also trained Fortune-1000 teams through my company Coaded, LLC. I'd love to teach LangStack and sponsor hackathons with y'all.
