Washington DC United States Palantir Technologies Full time

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

Palantir's defense product vertical builds mission-critical products for the modern warfighter. We provide a complete ecosystem where customers can securely integrate and visualize their data, and build sophisticated, full-fledged programs such as common operating pictures, alert-triaging inboxes, and resource allocation planning tools driven by rich-ML models. Our customers use our defense offering to perform rich analyses that drive core operations within their organizations - these programs are relied upon for daily operations in the command centers and battlefronts of militaries across the world.

This is a frontend engineering role focused on application development for our defense product offering, where you will be responsible for crafting the applications that organizations use every day to keep their countries safe. You will be architecting and developing interfaces to make sophisticated, data-intensive workflows both powerful and approachable, including to non-technical users. You may spend one day talking to users to better understand their needs and identifying product gaps to improve. The next day, you might find yourself putting that customer context to use and brainstorming how to handle intricate UX needs with your teammates. You’ll regularly face sophisticated technical problems, requiring you to scope out the solution design and finding an incremental path to shipping the new features. As part of this, you will own APIs and schemas that power your frontend code, and work with backend engineers in developing them together. You’ll be constantly exploring new horizons and building new skills in service of real world needs: between type theory, operational transforms, 2D and 3D mapping, UI design systems, high-scale graphics rendering, evidence-based performance optimization, and the never-ending need to decompose user asks into rich, sophisticated, and maintainable software, there is always a new challenge to be faced.

Core Responsibilities

As a frontend engineer working on our defense product offering, you will be involved throughout the product lifecycle - from idea generation, design, and prototyping to execution and shipping.

Some examples of product work you could work on are:
  • Build for high-scale, collaborative, geospatial workflows (Gaia )
  • Design sophisticated frameworks to enable complex workflows across applications in a single workspace
  • Develop the next generation of real-time collaborative tooling and data-analysis solutions (Secure Collaboration )
Technologies We Use
  • Typescript and React are central to our frontend development.
  • Blueprint as a re-usable frontend component library.
  • A combination of open-source and internal technologies that suit the problems at hand.
  • Industry-standard build tooling, including Gradle, Webpack, GitHub, and CircleCI.
What We Value
  • Passion for building user interfaces that enable users to tackle their problems.
  • Ability to work optimally in teams of technical and non-technical individuals, e.g. brainstorming and iterating with product designers
  • Skill and comfort working in a constantly evolving environment with dynamic objectives and iteration with users.
  • Experience building high-quality software in a fast-paced CI/CD development environment
  • Proven ability to learn continuously, work independently, and make decisions with minimal supervision.
  • Ability to learn new technology and concepts, even without in-depth experience. Motivated by unlocking or improving user workflows while still maintaining engineering quality.
What We Require
  • 2+ years of frontend software engineering experience.
  • Strong frontend coding skills. Regardless of which frameworks you use or how you learned them, we’re looking for people who can write clean, effective code. You should already have proficiency in JavaScript and an understanding of how web technologies work.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent understanding of algorithms, performance, and systems design.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Eligibility and willingness to obtain a US Security clearance.

Life at Palantir

We want every Palantirian to achieve their best outcomes, that’s why we celebrate individuals’ strengths, skills, and interests, from your first interview to your longterm growth, rather than rely on traditional career ladders.

Based on business need, there are a few roles that allow for “Remote” work on an exceptional basis. If you are applying for one of these roles, you must work from the state in which you are employed. If the posting is specified as Onsite, you are required to work from an office.

Palantir is committed to promoting a culture of diversity, equity, and inclusion and is proud to be an Equal Employment Opportunity and Affirmative Action employer. We believe that all Palantirians share the responsibility of upholding our commitment to these values and encourage candidates from a wide range of backgrounds, perspectives, and lived experiences to join us in solving the world’s hardest problems.
