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 lifesaving drugs, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, and more.

The Role

Talent Strategists work directly for one of our business or product development teams. We work to achieve the same mission using a different and complementary set of tools. We internalize the gravity, urgency, and meaning of our company’s work, inspiring us to find the exceptional individuals we know our teams need to win.

We innovate constantly to achieve these ends. We design creative and effective hiring operations to respond to the demands our teams face. We embrace breaking these apart and evolving when the terrain beneath us shifts. We scan constantly for what’s working and what’s failing, leveraging data and our keen intuition.

Your ability to source uniquely excellent candidates and ascertain team fit is critical in this role. This requires embedding, not merely engaging, with a range of counterparts at the company, from the C-suite to Forward Deployed Engineering. The demands are intense, meaningful, and ever-changing. If this sounds as enticing as it does challenging, you’ll thrive here.

Core Responsibilities

• Design and own the entire hiring lifecycle, including job description crafting, referral engagement, talent sourcing, interview process design, offer and closing, and evaluation of the end-to-end process for strength and risk.
• Actively surface talent using a range of strategies, from referrals to sourcing new leads.
• Build deep relationships with your business or product team as well as the talent you guide into Palantir.

What We Value

• Clear ability to navigate competing demands, relentlessly generating new solutions in response to constraints, new information, and changing terrain.
• Critical and data-driven approach to managing candidate pipelines and overall hiring processes.
• Demonstrated drive to work within an intense and mission-driven team representing a range of skillsets and personalities.
• Strong problem-solving skills; proven history of building and rebuilding processes from the ground up.

What We Require

• 1+ years of experience identifying, recruiting, and working with exceptional talent (does not need to be traditional Recruiting experience; we are open to a range of backgrounds).
• Extraordinary communication and interpersonal skills.

Salary

The estimated salary range for this position is $90,000 - $120,000/year. Total compensation for this position may also include Restricted Stock units, sign-on bonus and other potential future incentives. Further note that total compensation for this position will be determined by each individual’s relevant qualifications, work experience, skills, and other factors. This estimate excludes the value of any potential sign-on bonus; the value of any benefits offered; and the potential future value of any long-term incentives.

Benefits

• Employees (and their eligible dependents) can enroll in medical, dental, and vision insurance as well as voluntary life insurance.
• Employees are automatically covered by Palantir’s basic life, AD&D and disability insurance.
• Commuter benefits.
• Relocation assistance.
• Take what you need paid time off, not accrual based.
• 2 weeks paid time off built into the end of each year (subject to team and business needs).
• 10 paid holidays throughout the calendar year.
• Supportive leave of absence program including time off for military service and medical events.
• Paid leave for new parents and subsidized back-up care for all parents.
• Fertility and family building benefits including but not limited to adoption, surrogacy, and preservation.
• Stipend to help with expenses that come with a new child.
• Employees can enroll in Palantir’s 401k plan.
