Forward Deployed Software Engineer

Palantir Technologies is seeking a Forward Deployed Software Engineer (FDSE) to join their team in Amsterdam. As an FDSE, you'll work directly with customers to tackle complex data challenges and implement solutions that drive real-world impact. The role combines technical expertise with customer interaction, similar to a startup CTO position.

You'll be part of a company that builds world-leading software for data-driven decisions and operations, helping organizations across various sectors solve critical problems. Your work could range from helping develop lifesaving drugs to forecasting supply chain disruptions or locating missing children.

The position offers unique opportunities to gain insight into some of the world's most important industries and institutions. Your responsibilities will be diverse and challenging - from architecting solutions and handling massive-scale data to developing custom web applications and leading strategic initiatives. You'll work autonomously in small teams, owning projects from conception to completion.

This role is perfect for someone who combines strong technical skills with excellent problem-solving abilities and communication skills. You'll need to be comfortable working with large-scale data systems, proficient in programming languages like Python, Java, or TypeScript, and able to adapt to new technologies quickly. The position requires Dutch language fluency and involves 25-50% travel to client sites.

Palantir offers a unique growth environment where you'll learn to unpack complex problems, develop new technologies, and make independent decisions while being supported by a community of talented peers. The company promotes a culture of collaboration and innovation, with a strong emphasis on personal and professional development.
