Job Description:
A World-Changing Company At Palantir, we---re passionate about
building software that solves real problems. We partner with the
most important institutions in the world to transform how they use
their data. Our technology has been used to stop terrorist attacks,
discover new medicines, gain an edge in global financial markets,
and more. If these types of projects excite you, we'd love for you
to join us. The Role Forward Deployed Software Engineers (FDSEs)
work directly with customers to quickly understand their greatest
problems and design and implement solutions to use data against
them. Our customers rely on Palantir---s platforms for some of
their most critical operations, and projects often start with an
open ended question like "How do we evaluate wildfire risk and
optimize a power grid as a result" or "How do we quickly assess our
food supply chain and modify it to deliver life saving assistance
on time?" As an FDSE, you---ll apply your problem solving ability,
creativity, and technical skills to help organizations use their
data to drive a real impact in the world. You---ll have the
opportunity to gain rare insight into and contribute to some of the
world---s most important industries and institutions. As an FDSE
Intern, your responsibilities look similar to those at a small
startup, with the resources, stability and mentorship of an
established tech company: You---ll work in small teams with minimal
supervision and own end-to-end execution of high stakes projects.
Your day might span discussing architecture with fellow engineers,
wrangling massive-scale data, coding a custom web app, speaking
with customer executives, or establishing strategy for your team.
FDSE Interns are treated just like full time engineers, with
significant freedom and ownership over their work. Interns take
responsibility for real world projects and outcomes that our
customers rely on. Our Principles Impact: We address meaningful and
exciting projects that change the world for the better. Ownership:
We see projects through from beginning to end, working through any
obstacles we may encounter. We trust each other to effectively
handle time and priorities and give people the space to think for
themselves. Collaboration: We work internally with people from a
variety of backgrounds --- such as other FDSEs, product teams, and
Deployment Strategists. We also work externally with our customers,
often on site, to understand and tackle their problems. Growth: We
believe experiential learning is one of the best teachers and
encourage ourselves and our peers to seek new challenges and
opportunities for growth, as well as fine new ways to innovate and
share knowledge. What We Value Ability to continuously learn, work
independently, and make decisions with minimal direction.
Engineering background, preferred in fields such as Computer
Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, and Data
Science. Proficiency with one or more programming languages, such
as Python, Java, C++, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar. Ability to
collaborate in teams of technical and non-technical individuals,
and comfortable working in a constantly evolving environment with
dynamic objectives and iteration with users. An eagerness to
creatively solve technical problems with data structures, storage
systems, cloud infrastructure, front-end frameworks, and other
technical tools. Interest in working with and using large scale
data to solve valuable business problems. Willingness and interest
to travel as needed to client sites. Ability to travel 25-50%
preferred, but requirements vary by team and location. Must be
planning on graduating in 2024. This should be your final
