Description For Forward Deployed Software Engineer - Warp Speed

Palantir Technologies is seeking a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE) for their Warp Speed initiative, focused on revitalizing the American Industrial Base. This role combines technical expertise with business acumen, working directly with customers from factory floor to boardroom.

As an FDSE, you'll function similar to a startup CTO, leading end-to-end execution of high-stakes projects in small teams. Your work will span architecture discussions, data handling at scale, custom web app development, executive communications, and team strategy setting. The role offers unique exposure to critical industries and institutions globally.

The Warp Speed initiative builds upon Palantir's manufacturing excellence, aiming to transform and modernize American industrial capabilities. You'll apply your problem-solving abilities, creativity, and technical skills to help organizations leverage their data for meaningful impact.

Working at Palantir offers exceptional growth opportunities, with a culture that values individual strengths over traditional career ladders. The company provides comprehensive benefits, including medical, dental, vision insurance, commuter benefits, flexible PTO, parental leave, and fertility benefits. While primarily hybrid-based in New York, the role involves up to 25% travel to client sites.

This position requires a strong engineering background, preferably in Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, or Data Science, with demonstrated coding proficiency in languages like Python, Java, C++, or TypeScript/JavaScript. The ideal candidate should be highly analytical, eager to tackle technical challenges, and comfortable working in dynamic environments with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

Join Palantir to be part of a world-changing company that empowers organizations to make data-driven decisions and operations, contributing to initiatives from lifesaving drug development to supply chain optimization and child safety.
