A Software Engineer at Palantir drives large-scale transformation through data, AI, and world-leading infrastructure that supports mission-critical workloads. You'll have an opportunity to grow more quickly than you ever envisioned as you contribute high-quality code directly to Rubix and Apollo, platforms deployed at the most important institutions across the public and private sectors. You'll join our Production Infrastructure organization, made up of small teams of engineers working on Environment Platform, Apollo, and Signals.

As a Software Engineer at Palantir, you'll own every phase of the product lifecycle,from generating ideas and designing prototypes to executing features and shipping releases,while being paired with a dedicated mentor who champions your growth. You'll work hand-in-hand with both technical and non-technical colleagues to uncover real customer problems and deliver solutions that address them.

To gain firsthand insight, you might sit side-saddle at a military exercise or partner directly with vendors using Palantir's Apollo & Rubix to put our software into the hands of warfighters and government workers. SWE principles include:

Ownership: We see projects through from beginning to end in spite of obstacles we may encounter.
