About the role

Forward Deployed Engineers (FDEs) work directly with customers to design and implement data-driven solutions using Palantir platforms. FDSEs operate in small teams with end-to-end ownership on high-stakes projects, often onsite with customers, and collaborate across product teams to solve complex problems.

Responsibilities

  • Impact: We take on meaningful and challenging projects that change the world for the better.
  • Ownership: We see projects through from beginning to end, working through any obstacles we may encounter.
  • Collaboration: We work internally with people from a variety of backgrounds — such as other FDEs, product teams, and Deployment Strategists. We also work externally with our customers, often on site, to understand and solve their problems.
  • Trust: We trust each other to effectively manage time and priorities and give people the space to think for themselves.
  • Growth: We encourage ourselves and our peers to seek new challenges and opportunities for growth, as well as find new ways to innovate and share knowledge.
  • Learning: We often face entirely novel problems where we need to pick up a lot of new knowledge and learn how to use it to make progress. We believe experiential learning is one of the best teachers.

Qualifications

  • Strong engineering background, preferred in fields such as Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, and Data Science.
  • A highly analytical mindset and eagerness to solve technical problems with data structures, storage systems, on-premises and cloud infrastructure, front-end frameworks, and other technical tools.
  • Experience or interest in working with and using large scale data to solve valuable business problems.
  • Strong coder with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages such as Python, Java, C++, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar.
  • Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively in teams of technical and non-technical individuals, and comfortable working in a rapidly changing environment with dynamic objectives and iteration with users.
  • Ability to continuously learn, work independently, and make decisions with minimal supervision.
  • Ability to travel throughout Europe 70-90% of the time.
  • NATO Security clearance or the ability to obtain a clearance.
  • Fluency in English.
