Data Engineer - Palantir

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.

As a Data Engineer, you will be a key part of the Product Development Data Applications and Analytics Team (PDAAT) within the Product Development organisation. You and the team will work with leadership, cross-functionally with product engineers and leaders across the business to address, measure, and evaluate Palantir’s internal strategic and tactical performance. You will analyse cloud utilisation, user metrics, stability KPIs, cost optimisations, and ensure best in class support for our developers and product teams. You will use your analytical experience to architect custom KPIs that fit new business needs, combine disparate data sources and distil trends from internal and external data sources. You will provide cost and usage monitoring, recommendations, and advice to help maintain our analytics infrastructure that serves Palantir’s core business and development functions. You will use Palantir’s platforms just as Palantir’s customers do: creating custom applications that enable specific internal workflows, activating vast troves of data that unlock key insights, and creating views that help drive day-to-day outcomes.

Teams throughout Palantir will consult with and rely on you to help guide planning and decision-making for a wide range of topics while balancing various sets of priorities and weighing costs. You are a problem solver who loves gathering information from various sources, analysing and presenting your recommendations to technical teams, business partners, and Palantir leadership. You are a good communicator who thrives in cross-timezone collaborations and individual projects. You feel comfortable working in a data-rich and dynamic environment, putting various pieces of the puzzle together to create a coherent picture. This position will offer an exciting work environment, multi-functional exposure, and a chance to create an impact on Palantir’s product development, customer satisfaction and bottom line, by driving analysis, and recommending and implementing processes.
