Forward Deployed Software Engineer

Palantir Technologies is seeking a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE) to join their team in Paris. As an FDSE, you'll work directly with customers to tackle their most critical challenges using data-driven solutions. The role combines technical expertise with business acumen, similar to a startup CTO position. You'll be responsible for understanding client problems, designing solutions, and implementing them end-to-end.

The position offers unique exposure to various industries and institutions, working on projects that have real-world impact. Your daily responsibilities will vary from architectural discussions and data wrangling to coding custom applications and strategic planning. The role requires strong technical skills, particularly in languages like Python, Java, and TypeScript, along with the ability to work autonomously and make independent decisions.

Palantir's culture emphasizes impact, ownership, and collaboration. They believe in the power of in-person work while offering hybrid flexibility. The company is committed to fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion, welcoming candidates from all backgrounds. They focus on individual growth rather than traditional career ladders, providing multiple pathways to success.

The ideal candidate will have at least one year of post-college experience, strong engineering fundamentals, and excellent coding abilities. You should be comfortable working with large-scale data systems and be willing to travel to client sites as needed. The role offers the opportunity to learn new technologies, develop leadership skills, and contribute to meaningful projects that make the world better.

Working at Palantir means joining a community that supports and challenges you to grow. The company invests in employee well-being and provides flexible work arrangements to help team members achieve their best outcomes. If you're passionate about solving complex problems, working with cutting-edge technology, and making a real impact, this role offers an excellent opportunity to advance your career while contributing to meaningful projects.
