Description du poste

The Role

Forward Deployed Software Engineers (FDSEs) work directly with customers to quickly understand their greatest problems and design and implement solutions that use data to solve these problems. Our customers rely on Palantir’s platforms for some of their most critical operations, and projects often start with an open‑ended question such as “How do we evaluate wildfire risk and optimise a power grid as a result?” or “How do we quickly assess our food supply chain and modify it to deliver life‑saving assistance on time?” As an FDSE, you’ll apply your problem‑solving ability, creativity, and technical skills to help organisations use their data to drive real impact in the world. You’ll have the opportunity to gain rare insight into and contribute to some of the world’s most important industries and institutions.

Core Responsibilities

• Work in small teams with minimal supervision and own end‑to‑end execution of high‑stakes projects.
• Discuss architecture with fellow engineers, wrangle massive‑scale data, code custom web applications, speak with customer executives, or establish strategy for your team.
• Take responsibility for real‑world projects and outcomes that customers rely on.

Our Principles

• Impact: We address meaningful and exciting projects that change the world for the better.
• Ownership: We see projects through from beginning to end, working through any obstacles we may encounter. We trust each other to effectively handle time and priorities and give people the space to think for themselves.
• Collaboration: We work internally with people from a variety of backgrounds such as other FDSEs, product teams, and Deployment Strategists, and externally with our customers, often on site, to understand and tackle their problems.
• Growth: We believe experiential learning is one of the best teachers and encourage ourselves and our peers to seek new challenges and opportunities for growth, and to find new ways to innovate and share knowledge.

What We Value

• Willingness and interest to travel as needed to client sites; ability to travel 25‑50 % of the time preferred, but requirements vary by team and location.
• Ability to continuously learn, work independently, and make decisions with minimal direction.
• Ability to collaborate in teams of technical and non‑technical individuals, comfortable working in a constantly evolving environment with dynamic objectives and user iteration.
• Eagerness to creatively solve technical problems with data structures, storage systems, cloud infrastructure, front‑end frameworks, and other technical tools.
• Interest in working with and using large‑scale data to solve valuable business problems.

What We Require

• Engineering background, preferably in Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, or Data Science.
• Proficiency with one or more programming languages such as Python, Java, C++, TypeScript/JavaScript, or similar.
• Must be planning on graduating in 2027; this should be your final internship before graduating.

• An updated résumé / CV.
