Lance Martin

I'm a software engineer at LangChain focused on open source and applied projects. I created many of LangChain Quickstarts focused on topics such as RAG, agents, and prompt engineering. I created LangChain's first full course, LangChain Academy, with > 35 lessons on building agents. I also created the Rag From Scratch course, which walks through the fundamentals of RAG and is features on FreeCodeCamp (>450k views). Before LangChain I spent several years as a tech lead / manager on vision systems in the self-driving industry and got a PhD from Stanford.
