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.

FDSEs solicit constant feedback on their work from both customers and colleagues, improving our products over time with rapid iteration cycles.

You work with customers around the globe, where you gain rare insight into the world’s most important industries and institutions.
