A World-Changing Company
Palantir builds the world’s leading software for data-driven decisions and 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, and more.
The Role
Are you passionate about engineering quality, efficiency, and increasing the impact of engineers around you?
Software Engineers at Palantir build software at scale to transform how organizations globally use data. As a Software Engineer on Developer Productivity, you’ll identify, develop, and drive investments to improve the velocity and quality of our engineering, as well as bolster the happiness and productivity of other developers.
The role spans a spectrum of areas, such as build and software supply-chain systems, platform runtime environments, telemetry relating concurrency, memory/performance optimizations, and monitoring/alerting. Your primary users will be other developers at Palantir. They will be empowered with the software you develop to build capabilities used by research scientists, aerospace engineers, intelligence analysts, and economic forecasters in countries around the world. There will be opportunities to contribute to open source software, including projects maintained by others that we leverage. You’ll work autonomously within a community that will support and challenge you as you grow to become a strong technical contributor and engineering leader.
The team is hiring for Frontend and Backend engineers.
Core Responsibilities
We're hiring engineers who are passionate about solving real-world problems and empowering developers to do their work optimally. If you’re motivated to develop reliable, performant, scalable systems and tools, here are some examples of the types of work you’d get to do:
Define and build standard practices for how services are operated and observed throughout their deployment
Build libraries and tooling for defining service APIs and the RPC interactions between microservices; like the conjure ecosystem
Unify frontend build and CI infrastructure across all of Palantir
Help developers understand and adhere to development practices by building great tools and development processes
Push Palantir to the cutting edge of software supply chain security
