AI Summary

• Build and deploy end-to-end AI/LLM workflows for enterprise clients, owning high-stakes projects from strategy through production implementation. • Requires hands-on experience building LLM solutions, strong ML fundamentals, and proficiency in languages like Python, Java, C++, or TypeScript. • Work directly with customers to understand needs, set AI strategy, and solve real-world problems at scale across new markets and industries. • Strong engineering background preferred with degree in Computer Science, Mathematics, Software Engineering, Physics, or Machine Learning. • Travel up to 25% to client sites; opportunity to influence Palantir's product roadmap and work at the forefront of Gen AI innovation.

A World-Changing Company Palantir builds the world’s leading software for data-driven decisions and operations.

You will be on the forefront of extending Palantir's existing footprint and strategy into new markets and problem spaces opened up by Gen AI.

Core Responsibilities Forward Deployed AI Engineers’ responsibilities look similar to those of a hands-on AI startup CTO: you’ll work in small teams to own delivery of high stakes projects with clients. A day’s work may include building LLM workflows on a large scale, interacting with customers to understand their needs and set their AI strategy, but the most impact will be driven by implementing solutions into the real world of our partner's organizations. Do you aspire to be an entrepreneur or an Applied AI leader?
