Palantir builds the world's leading software for data-driven decisions & operations. By bringing the right data to the people who need it, our platforms empower our partners to develop lifesaving drugs, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, & more.

Forward Deployed Software Engineers (FDSEs) work directly with customers to quickly understand their greatest problems & design & implement solutions to use data against them. In this role, you'll apply your problem solving ability, creativity, & technical skills to help organizations use their data to drive a real impact in the world.

FDSEs deploy ground breaking technical solutions to solve our customers' hardest problems. Projects often start with an open-ended question like How can our technology push the envelope on data protection capabilities that enable collaboration on the most sensitive data while meeting all compliance requirements?” FDSEs lead the way in developing a solution, from high-level system design & prototyping to application development & data integration. As an FDSE, you make use of everything around you: Palantir products, open source technologies, & anything you & your team can build to create real impact.

Whether you aspire to be an entrepreneur or an engineering leader, we believe Palantir is the best place - with the best colleagues - to learn how. You'll learn how to unpack a problem & understand the costs & consequences of its solution. You'll learn new technologies & languages, & even develop them yourself. You'll work autonomously & make decisions independently, within a community that will support & challenge you as you grow & develop.

You work with customers around the globe, where you gain rare insight into the world's most important industries & institutions. We help our customers protect vulnerable populations, deter future violence, & more. Each mission presents different challenges, from the regulatory environment to the nature of the data to the user population. You will work to accommodate all aspects of an environment to drive real technical outcomes for our customers.
