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.

Palantir's defense product vertical builds mission-critical products for the modern warfighter. We provide a complete ecosystem where customers can securely integrate & visualize their data, & build sophisticated, full-fledged programs such as common operating pictures, alert-triaging inboxes, & resource allocation planning tools driven by rich-ML models. Our customers use our defense offering to perform rich analyses that drive core operations within their organizations - these programs are relied upon for daily operations in the command centers & battlefronts of militaries across the world.

This is a frontend engineering role focused on application development for our defense product offering, where you will be responsible for crafting the applications that organizations use every day to keep their countries safe. You will be architecting & developing interfaces to make sophisticated, data-intensive workflows both powerful & approachable, including to non-technical users. You may spend one day talking to users to better understand their needs & identifying product gaps to improve. The next day, you might find yourself putting that customer context to use & brainstorming how to handle intricate UX needs with your teammates. You'll regularly face sophisticated technical problems, requiring you to scope out the solution design & finding an incremental path to shipping the new features. As part of this, you will own APIs & schemas that power your frontend code, & work with backend engineers in developing them together. You'll be constantly exploring new horizons & building new skills in service of real world needs: between type theory, operational transforms, 2D & 3D mapping, UI design systems, high-scale graphics rendering, evidence-based performance optimization, & the never-ending need to decompose user asks into rich, sophisticated, & maintainable software, there is always a new challenge to be faced.

As a frontend engineer working on our defense product offering, you will be involved throughout the product lifecycle - from idea generation, design, & prototyping to execution & shipping.
