New York, New York, United States Palantir 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

Backend Software Engineers at Palantir build software at scale to transform how organizations use data. Our Software Engineers are involved throughout the product lifecycle, from idea generation, design, prototyping, and production delivery. You will collaborate closely with technical and non-technical teammates to understand our customers' problems and build products that solve them. We encourage movement across teams to share context, skills, and experience, so you'll learn about many different technologies and aspects of each product. Engineers work autonomously and make decisions independently, within a community that will support and challenge you as you grow and develop, becoming a strong technical contributor and engineering leader.

Your day-to-day workflow will vary, adapting to the requirements of our users and the technical challenges that arise. One day, you may find yourself collaborating with other engineers to architect a new system that enables a novel workflow, the next you could be fine-tuning performance to enable low-latency operational outcomes.

Our Product Development organization is made up of small teams of Software Engineers. Each team focuses on a specific aspect of a product and work collaboratively to build cross functional capabilities, streamline user workflows and continuously improve our software's efficiency and reliability.

We're hiring engineers who are passionate about solving real-world problems and empowering developers and end-users to do their work optimally. If you're motivated to develop reliable, performant, scalable systems and design robust APIs and primitives, below are some examples of the types of product work you'd get to do in this role:

Core ResponsiblitiesArchitecting, developing, and maintaining high-performance, scalable backend services that underpin our our operational data and AI systemsMaintaining high coding standards through the development of guidelines, active participation in code reviews, and fostering a culture of continuous improvement and knowledge sharing among your teamBuilding robust APIs for use by front-end developers and interfacing external systems, and collaborating with front-end developers to integrate user-facing elements with server-side logicDesigning efficient data structures and algorithms to manage large-scale and high throughput dataOptimizing applications for speed and scalability through performance analysisActively improve user workflows by collaborating with cross-functional teams, ensuring seamless experiences across product boundaries and a cohesive user experienceTechnologies We UseDifferent backend languages, including Java, Rust, Python and GoDistributed systems technologies such as Kafka, Cassandra, Elasticsearch and SparkDocker and Kubernetes for containerization and orchestrationIndustry-standard build tooling, including Gradle and GitHubWhat We ValueA deep understanding of server-side logic, efficient data handling, and distributed systemsStrong focus on creating user-oriented workflows and solutions, crossing product boundaries to deliver cohesive and solid user workflows that ensure a seamless and intuitive user experienceExperience building high-quality software in a fast-paced CI/CD development environmentAbility to work collaboratively in teams of technical and non-technical individuals and understand how technical decisions impact the people who will use what you're buildingSkill and comfort working in a constantly evolving environment with dynamic objectives and iteration with usersActive US Security clearance, or eligibility and willingness to obtain a US Security clearance is beneficial but not necessary
