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
Software Engineers at Palantir build software at scale to transform how organizations globally use data. As a Software Engineer on Developer Infrastructure, you'll identify, develop, and drive investments to improve the velocity and quality of our engineering, as well as bolster the happiness and productivity of other developers.
The Developer Infrastructure role spans a spectrum of areas, such as build and software supply-chain systems, platform runtime environments, telemetry relating concurrency, memory/performance optimizations, and monitoring/alerting. Your primary users will be other developers at Palantir. They will be empowered with the software you develop to build capabilities used by research scientists, aerospace engineers, intelligence analysts, and economic forecasters in countries around the world. There will be opportunities to contribute to open source software, including projects maintained by others that we leverage. You'll work autonomously within a community that will support and challenge you as you grow to become a strong technical contributor and engineering leader.
Given the push of our new AIP product, and as we expand our AI product offerings, the demand for Python expertise has grown significantly. In response, we are building a Python Development Infrastructure team that will play a crucial role in shaping Palantir's approach to Python, a language that has not been extensively used in our products before.
Core Responsibilities
We're hiring engineers who are passionate about empowering developers to solve real-world problems. If you're motivated to develop reliable, performant, scalable systems and tools, here are some examples of the types of work you'd get to do:
* Define and build standard practices for how services are operated and observed throughout their deployment * Build libraries and tooling for defining service APIs and the RPC interactions between microservices; like the conjure ecosystem * Help developers understand and adhere to development best practices by building great tools and development processes * Push Palantir to the cutting edge of software supply chain security Technologies We Use A variety of languages, including Python, Java, Go, and TypeScript.
Open-source databases like Cassandra, Lucene, Elasticsearch
Open-source libraries/frameworks like GraphQL, Undertow, Jackson, Log4j, Rattler and Conda.
