Jobbeschreibung

We are a high-impact consultancy specialising in Palantir Foundry and AIP. Founded by ex-Palantir engineers and elite consultants, we deliver rapid, high-value solutions to our clients through deep technical expertise and real business impact.

Our mission

Solve the world's biggest challenges with the best data & AI operating system: Foundry & AIP.

The role

We are hiring a driven and ambitious Senior Engineer with deep experience in Palantir Foundry to lead delivery for strategic client projects. As one of our first hires, you'll work directly with founders and take ownership of high-impact projects. You will:

• Build end-to-end workflows from data integration to decision tools using Foundry
• Work directly with client stakeholders of all levels (CxOs, product leads, data teams) to uncover opportunities and deliver business value
• Lead engineering teams on high-visibility projects, from beginning to end
• Shape our engineering culture, delivery model, and future product direction

You bring

• Strong software engineering background (e.g., Python, Spark, TypeScript)
• Deep understanding of data modelling, ontologies, and operational workflows
• Ability to lead engineering teams in complex client environments
• Consulting mindset: able to speak business and tech with various types of stakeholders
• Startup energy: proactive, independent, high-output with attention to quality
• End-to-end experience with Palantir Foundry / AIP
• Databricks is a plus

Broad exposure matters more than years: two years across many use cases (from Data Connection to Ontology-aware apps) beats five years doing only data pipelines at one place. You can work independently with clients, without close supervision. We're looking for people with a founder mindset: proactive, fast, and fully accountable.

Location

Zurich-based, hybrid. You're in or near the Greater Zurich area - within about a 90-minute (1.5h) commute - so you can build side by side with the team and be at Swiss client sites when it counts.

• Elite team: Work with ex-Palantir and top Foundry experts
• Serious impact: Lead engagements from day one and directly contribute to company development
• High-growth: Together we will build something rare: a boutique, technical and high-impact consultancy
• True ownership: Take end-to-end responsibility for strategic client outcomes and internal initiatives
• High agency, low politics: Lean team, zero red tape. Your ideas shape client delivery, internal tooling, and company strategy
• Zurich hub, real proximity: Build alongside the founders and close to our Swiss clients, with off-sites and travel when it helps
• Base compensation: 120-150k CHF (+ bonus)
