Job description

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 life-saving forecasts, supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, and more.

What We're About

At its core, the Deployment Strategist role centers around leveraging data in operational and real-world action. Our customers come to us with a hunch that the only way to protect their troops, manufacture high-quality products, structure effective healthcare policies, or deliver aid to refugees safely is to make better use of their data. Deployment Strategists are responsible for turning that hunch into reality.

If you believe in the transformational power of data and technology and in your own ability to bring that power to bear against complex problems, we want to meet you.

What We Do

As a Deployment Strategist, you'll work as part of a driven and creative team of Engineers, Product Designers, and other Deployment Strategists to deploy software against the most challenging problems our world faces. Your mission is to synthesize disconnected streams of thought into a cohesive understanding of what the most important problem is, what the data means, what the product needs, what users are motivated by, and where the impact could be.

Deployment Strategists are doers who immerse themselves in our customers' most intricate workflows, partner with customer teams, explore the data, and dive into the product landscape to enable us to scale. Some Deployments Strategists may also be deployed to Palantir internal teams and problems. In this role, you'll tackle problems requiring a curious and analytical mindset, a sharp intuition for product, and strong user empathy to ultimately empower our customers to make better decisions. No two days are the same, but as a Deployment Strategist, you can expect to:

• Go onsite and meet with customer analysts to understand critical questions and pain points.
• Identify relevant datasets through deep engagement with customer problems and workflows, working with Forward Deployed Engineers to integrate data into a stable pipeline.
• Build bespoke workflows for new user groups.
• Lead training sessions to ensure the product meets user needs and is widely used to impact operations.
• Present results and proposals to audiences from analysts to C-suite executives.
• Collaborate with Software Engineering and Product Design teams to incorporate field insights into product offerings.
• Build and deliver demos to customers.
• Scope out potential engagements in new industries and locations globally.

What We Value

• We value team members who are not satisfied with surface answers and who dive into the details of data. We value low ego because the outcome matters more than who gets the credit.
• Extraordinary ability to tackle open-ended problems in unstructured environments.
• Adaptability, willingness to learn, teach, lead, and follow.
• Ability to travel 25-75%, depending on location and team.
• Experience with programming, scripting, or statistical packages (e.g., Python, R, Matlab, SQL) is a plus.
