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

Our team members are subject matter experts in both cybersecurity and US Government policy. We’re excited about generating creative solutions to ambiguous security requirements. Our mission is deploying software in support of our customers' most critical needs as quickly as possible while upholding the government's trust. We achieve this through close consultation with stakeholders and direct ownership of the Authorization to Operate (ATO) process.

As an Information System Security Engineer (ISSE), you support a variety of projects which draw from your wide spectrum of technical experience. You are resourceful, collaborative, and take initiative to improve our processes over time. Most importantly, you are passionate about taking on new challenges and finding innovative ways to support critical missions.

Core Responsibilities
  • Achieve ATOs for Palantir software across multiple government customers with minimal oversight.
  • Provide outstanding customer service, policy expertise, and high-quality documentation.
  • Partner with engineers to interpret security requirements and plan effective control implementations.
  • Translate and synthesize complex concepts and architectures into clear body of evidence artifacts, including System Security Plans (SSP) and architecture diagrams.
  • Represent Palantir and provide credible cybersecurity expertise in government assessments and audits.
What We Value
  • Proficiency in interpreting and communicating government policy to a diverse audience.
  • Ability to multitask under pressure, using time management and organizational skills.
  • A meticulous attention to detail and demonstrated ability to operate creatively within rigid government processes.
  • Experience with information security fundamentals and core technologies (e.g., authentication, encryption, firewalls, vulnerability scanning, SIEM/SOAR, audit logs).
What We Require
  • Active U.S. DoD Secret or Top Secret clearance and willingness to upgrade and maintain a higher level of access.
  • Proven experience with cybersecurity in a US Government context.
  • Willingness and interest to travel as needed to customer sites. Ability to travel 25% preferred, but requirements vary by location.

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. Paying attention to the needs of our community enables us to optimize our opportunities to grow and helps ensure many pathways to success at Palantir. Promoting health and well-being across all areas of Palantirians’ lives is just one of the ways we’re investing in our community. Learn more at Life at Palantir and note that our offerings may vary by region.

In keeping consistent with Palantir’s values and culture, we believe employees are “better together” and in-person work affords the opportunity for more creative outcomes. Therefore, we encourage employees to work from our offices to foster connectivity and innovation. Many teams do offer hybrid options (WFH a day or two a week), allowing our employees to strike the right trade-off for their personal productivity. 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.
