The Role As a Platform Engineer on Palantir's Identity Platform team, you will design, build, and operate secure-by-design identity infrastructure and tooling. You will make identity governance and access management easier and more secure to implement for Palantirians and customers worldwide. As part of Palantir's best-in-class Information Security organization, you will research, implement, and scale innovative solutions that help Palantir stay ahead of a dynamic threat landscape. You will help the team build the next-generation identity platform that treats agents and workload identities as first-class principals: the access graph that makes entitlements legible, the policy engine that makes authorization enforceable and auditable, and the token-issuance layer that keeps access short-lived, scoped, and least-privilege by default. Your work will shape the arc of these components from design to production. You will join the high-performing Identity Platform team, engineers who are passionate about delivering identity outcomes at scale that reduce risk and friction. The team builds and operates the identity platforms that serve both corporate and production (customer-facing) infrastructure, and the paved-road tooling and secure baselines that teams across Palantir deploy on.

Scale Labs, Research Scientist — AI Controls and Monitoring As the leading data and evaluation partner for frontier AI companies, Scale plays an integral role in understanding the capabilities and safeguarding AI models and systems. Building on this expertise, Scale Labs has launched a new team focused on policy research, to bridge the gap between AI research and global policymakers to make informed, scientific decisions about AI risks and capabilities. Our research tackles the hardest problems in agent robustness, AI control protocols, and AI risk evaluations to help governments, industry, and the public understand and mitigate AI risk while maximizing AI adoption. This team collaborates broadly across industry, the public sector, and academia and regularly publishes our findings. We are actively seeking talented researchers to join us in shaping this vision. As a Research Scientist focused on AI Controls and Monitoring, you will design methods, systems, and experiments to ensure that advanced AI models and agents remain aligned with intended goals, even in high-stakes or adversarial environments. For example, you might: Develop monitoring techniques and observability methods that track AI behavior in real time to identify and flag deviations, emergent capabilities, or anomalous outputs; Research mechanisms for layered control, including fail-safes, oversight protocols, and intervention methods that can halt or redirect AI systems when risks are detected; Design red-team simulations to probe weaknesses in oversight and control mechanisms, and build mitigations to close identified gaps; Collaborate with policymakers, engineers, and other researchers to establish standards and benchmarks for AI monitoring and escalation. Ideally you’d have: Commitment to our mission of promoting safe, secure, and trustworthy AI deployments in the industry as frontier AI capabilities continue to advance. Practical experience conducting technical research collaboratively. You should be

Platform administration isn't the part of the product anyone screenshots for a demo. Nobody's writing a blog post about your identity provisioning flow. But it's the thing every other team at Diligent quietly depends on more than any other dev team in the company and when it breaks, everyone notices immediately. If that kind of quiet, high-stakes ownership sounds appealing rather than thankless, keep reading. This role is for someone who wants real skin in the game: you build it, you ship it, you support it. We're a high-initiative team that improves things we see first and asks permission later, building secure, event-driven microservices in TypeScript on AWS, and treating infrastructure as code the same way we treat application code: with rigor, not as an afterthought. Here's a breakdown of what you'll do (not all of it, just the important stuff) Design and build secure, scalable full-stack services using AWS serverless tech (Lambda, SQS, API Gateway) — with real attention to event-driven patterns and observability, not just "does it work on my machine." Own your services in production. That means building good observability, keeping an eye on alerts, and responding to them before they become bigger problems. Build infrastructure as code with AWS CDK and push for CI/CD that ships safely and often — not "big bang" releases you have to pray over. Design RESTful APIs other teams will actually want to consume: clear contracts, sane versioning, no surprises. Write tests — unit, integration, end-to-end — as part of how you build, not a chore you do after. Show up to architecture discussions with opinions and documentation, not just vibes. Use AI tools to move faster on coding, debugging, testing, and research — but you're still the one who validates the output. These are the essentials you'll need to get an interview 2-3 years of professional software engineering experience in an agile, full-stack-focused environment. Solid full-stack fundamentals: request lifecycles, d

Position Overview: As a Software Engineer II at Diligent, you’ll take on a hands-on technical role in building secure, scalable, and high-performing serverless microservices using TypeScript on AWS. You’ll contribute meaningfully to our mission of making governance effortless for our customers, working in a team of passionate and talented individuals that owns its services end to end—from architecture and implementation to monitoring and continuous improvements. This role is ideal for a mid-level engineer who writes solid code and embraces AI-powered tools to work smarter and faster. You’ll help shape architectural discussions, and scale modern development practices, including responsible use of AI in workflows. Key Responsibilities Design and implement secure, scalable, high-performing, yet simple solutions using AWS Serverless technology. These solutions should strive to be event-driven, highly observable, with infrastructure as code, and tightly leveraging AWS’s ecosystem of services. Optimize your development and delivery experience in order to maximize your team’s productivity and deploy continuously to production. Work in a collaborative environment where you regularly pair, plan, and execute tasks as a team and maintain a healthy development flow by adhering to Agile processes and driving iterative enhancements. Use AI tools to accelerate coding, debugging, testing, research, and code reviews, always validating outputs and applying judgment. Required Experience/Skills 3–5 years of professional software engineering experience in an agile, fast-paced environment. AI Tooling & Practices: Uses AI to boost productivity, skilled in prompt engineering, and evaluates AI outputs responsibly (bias, cost, ethics). Familiar with core AI concepts (tokens, context length, embeddings, hallucinations), understands high-level LLM behavior, and recognizes safe vs. unsafe use cases (privacy, security, fairness). Cloud & infrastructure basics: Hands-on with AWS ser
