Position Overview

As a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE), you will play a critical role in understanding and addressing our clients' most pressing challenges. You will design and implement comprehensive solutions that respond to their needs, continuously refining our products through ongoing feedback from both clients and peers.

FDSEs tackle complex problems by delivering innovative technical solutions. Projects often begin with ambiguous inquiries such as “What causes customer attrition?” or “How can we enhance the detection of money laundering?” You will lead the development process from conceptual system design and prototyping to application coding and data integration. Leveraging Palantir's products as well as open-source technologies, you and your team will drive significant impact.

Your work will span across global clients, providing unique insights into some of the most vital industries and institutions. We assist our customers in identifying insider trading, optimizing disaster relief efforts, combating healthcare fraud, and much more. Each mission presents diverse challenges, including regulatory landscapes and data characteristics, which you will navigate to ensure meaningful technical results for our clients.

Whether your goal is to become an entrepreneur or a leader in engineering, Palantir offers an unparalleled environment—alongside exceptional colleagues—for your growth journey. You will learn to dissect complex problems, evaluate the implications of various solutions, and acquire new technologies and programming languages, while also having the opportunity to innovate and create. You will operate independently, making impactful decisions with the support and challenge of a collaborative community that fosters your development.
