## Role details

## Role

Software Engineers at Palantir build software at scale to transform how organizations around the world use data. In this role, you’ll have an opportunity to grow quickly as you contribute high-quality code directly to Palantir Gotham, Palantir Apollo, or Palantir Foundry—products deployed at major institutions across public and private sectors. You’ll create features used by research scientists, aerospace engineers, intelligence analysts, and economic forecasters globally. Palantir's Product Development organization consists of small teams focused on specific product aspects, such as Foundry front-end applications or Gotham release infrastructure. We encourage communication and collaboration across teams to share context, skills, and experience, offering opportunities to learn about other business areas.

## Core Responsibilities

As a Software Engineer, you are involved throughout the product lifecycle—from idea generation, design, and prototyping to execution and shipping—while being paired with a mentor dedicated to your growth and success. You’ll collaborate closely with technical and non-technical counterparts to understand our customers' problems and build products that address them. A strong way to understand user needs is to meet them in person, potentially touring an assembly line at an auto manufacturer or working with a counter-terror analyst to grasp their mission and challenges.

  
- Contribute high-quality code to Palantir Gotham, Apollo, or Foundry.
  
- Participate in idea generation, design, prototyping, and shipping of features.
  
- Collaborate with engineers, product managers, designers, and reliability engineers.
  
- Engage with customers and stakeholders to understand problems and develop solutions.
  
- Learn about other business areas through cross-team collaboration.

## Principles

  
- **Ownership:** See projects through from start to finish despite obstacles.
  
- **Collaboration:** Work with colleagues from diverse backgrounds and partner with Forward Deployed Engineers and Deployment Strategists to solve customer problems.
  
- **Trust:** Manage time and priorities without micromanagement, while receiving team support to think independently.

## Technologies We Use

We value the ability to write clean, effective code and the willingness to learn new languages. Our software evolves continually, so engineers adapt and grow along with it. Our current tech landscape includes:

  
- A variety of languages, including Java and Go for backend, and TypeScript for frontend.
  
- Open-source technologies such as Cassandra, Spark, Elasticsearch, React, and Redux.
  
- Industry-standard build tooling including Gradle and GitHub.
