Join to apply for the Software Engineer, New Grad role at Palantir Technologies

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
Software Engineers at Palantir build software at scale to transform how organisations around the world use data. In this role, you’ll have an opportunity to grow more quickly than you ever envisioned as you contribute high-quality code directly to Palantir Gotham, Palantir Apollo, or Palantir Foundry: products that are deployed at some of the most important institutions across the public and private sectors. You\’ll create features used by research scientists, aerospace engineers, intelligence analysts, and economic forecasters in countries around the world. Palantir\’s Product Development organisation is made up of small teams of Software Engineers, each focusing on a specific aspect of a product. For example, you might join a team that builds a Foundry front-end application, or a component of the Gotham release infrastructure. We encourage communication and collaboration among teams to share context, skills, and experience, so you\’ll also have the opportunity to learn about other business areas.
Core Responsibilities
As a Software Engineer, you are involved throughout the product lifecycle – from idea generation, design, and prototyping, to execution and shipping, all while also being paired with a mentor dedicated to your growth and success. You\’ll collaborate closely with technical and non-technical counterparts to understand our customers\’ problems and build products that tackle them. One of the most effective ways to understand what our users need is to meet them. You may receive an opportunity to tour the assembly line at an auto-manufacturer or join a counter-terror analyst at their desk to really understand their mission and difficulties.
SWE Principles Include

Ownership: We see projects through from beginning to end in spite of obstacles we may encounter.
Collaboration: We work internally with people from a variety of backgrounds — such as other Software Engineers, Product Managers, Designers and Product Reliability Engineers. We also partner with our business development teams (Forward Deployed Engineers, Deployment Strategists) in order to understand and solve our customers\’ problems.
Trust: We trust each other to effectively handle time and priorities, and don\’t micromanage. We want people to have the space to think for themselves, while feeling supported by their team.

Technologies We Use
Skills
It doesn’t matter what languages you know when you join us; what matters is that you can write clean, effective code and learn new languages quickly. Our software is constantly evolving, so we need engineers who can do the same. Alongside peers that bring diverse experience – whether you’re a former university Teaching Assistant, switched to computer science recently, or are a hackathon enthusiast — you\’ll build your skills to apply the best technology to solve a given problem. Right now, we use:

A variety of languages, including Java and Go for backend and Typescript for frontend
Open-source technologies like Cassandra, Spark, Elasticsearch, React, and Redux
Industry-standard build tooling, including Gradle and GitHub

What We Value

Ability to communicate and collaborate with a variety of individuals, including engineers, users and non-technical team members.
Willingness to learn and make decisions independently, and the ability to ask questions effectively.

What We Require

Engineering background in fields such as Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, and Physics.
Familiarity with data structures, storage systems, cloud infrastructure, front-end frameworks, and other technical tools.
Experience coding in programming languages, such as Java, C++, Python, JavaScript, or similar languages.
