Forward Deployed Software Engineer - US Government

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 We’re looking for Forward Deployed Infrastructure Engineers who can help us build, operate, and maintain high-performance, scalable, and reliable services for Palantir platforms, products, and deployments. You'll get to use your creativity to develop novel solutions to evolving challenges and automate processes wherever possible, using whichever tools are best for the job including industry-leading LLM and AI technology! As a Forward Deployed Infrastructure Engineer, every day is different! You will be developing software and providing high-quality support for software systems that are critical to solving our government’s greatest challenges. We strongly believe in engineering teams being responsible for the operations of their services in production. As such, you’ll work closely with forward deployed teams and product teams to participate in sensible, scalable, systems design and share responsibility with them in diagnosing, resolving, and preventing production issues.

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 We are a software engineering team with expertise in enabling ML models in production. We deploy AI models to run in variety of environments: air-gapped government networks, forward-deployed defense environments, edge nodes, and enterprises with strict data sovereignty requirements. Our customers rely on us for frontier AI capabilities running on hardware they control, often with constrained GPU resources and limited direct access. Rising to that challenge and meeting those expectations is what Palantir's excels at. We treat models like any other software: continuously tested, continually delivered, packaged for reproducible deployment, and built for long-term maintainability. You will own services end-to-end, and work across the full stack, from inference engines, GPU scheduling to deployment pipelines, observability, and integration with Palantir's platform. The goal is to deliver new models and capabilities quickly and continuously. Join us if you want to solve problems at the intersection of infrastructure and machine learning that directly enable critical customers.

Who are we? Cohere is the leading security-first enterprise AI company. We build cutting-edge foundation AI models and end-to-end products that are designed to solve real-world business problems. We’re training and deploying frontier models for enterprises who are building AI systems. We believe that our work is instrumental to the widespread adoption of AI and we are looking for folks that want to be part of that. We obsess over what we build. Each one of us is responsible for contributing to increasing the capabilities of our models and the value they drive for our customers.

The Public Sector software engineers (SWEs) create the core product building blocks forward-deployed teams use to develop agentic capabilities that function across multiple domains. SWEs responsibilities include building the systems required to ingest and process federal datasets to support real-time decision-making in contested environments. We develop novel agentic enabling capabilities that includes: Create multi-layered guardrails around agents Optimize data retrieval for agents Orchestrate fleets of asynchronous agents Automatically alerts users to deviations in data Illustrating how an agent reached a decision As a Staff Software Engineer, you will orchestrate the implementation of vertical features and horizontal capabilities to include mentoring other engineers on defining requirements with stakeholders and communication tradeoffs of technical implementations on feature and capabilities until they are accepted by the stakeholders. You will: Orchestrate feature implementation across the Federal engineering team to ensure architectural consistency. Define technical strategy for agentic guardrails, explainability, and fleet orchestration. Ensure system reliability and performance across multiple security classifications and network types. Mentor engineers in the process of defining requirements with stakeholders and gathering acceptance. Communicate high-level technical trade-offs and implementation strategies to senior government stakeholders and Scale C-Suite members. Influence the long-term product strategy and technical roadmap for the Federal business unit. Consult on the architecture of AI-powered solutions for large-scale federal contracts. Ideally you will have: Full Stack Development: Proficiency in front-end, back-end development and infrastructure, including experience with modern web development frameworks, programming languages, and databases Cloud-Native Technologies: Familiarity with cloud platforms (e.g., AWS, Azure, GCP) and experience in
