Forward Deployed Engineer (Palantir)
Our client are looking for a forward deployed engineer to spearhead their Palantir practice, delivering transformative decision intelligence solutions for major European enterprises. Combine deep technical expertise with strategic client partnership whilst building world-class capability within our team.
Role:
- Lead end-to-end Palantir implementations from discovery through to production deployment, taking ownership of technical architecture decisions and implementation quality
- Design and deliver high-impact bootcamps that prove value quickly, converting sceptics into advocates through compelling demonstrations of the platform's transformative potential
- Navigate complex enterprise environments to identify and prioritise use cases that deliver the highest business value, working from first principles to understand true organisational needs rather than stated requirements
- Articulate Palantir's value proposition to C-suite audiences, translating technical capabilities into business outcomes they care about
Skills
- 5-8+ years as Palantir focussed Forward Deployed Engineer with demonstrable progression to enterprise leadership roles or complex technical implementations
- Enterprise-scale battle scars - you've worked on implementations large enough to trigger multiple failure modes, ideally at companies where Palantir has become mission-critical (reference examples: major aerospace, mining, insurance, healthcare systems, or government programmes)
- Deep Foundry technical expertise across the full stack: Pipeline Builder, Ontology, Workshop, OSDK, Code Repositories, Actions, and AIP/agentic capabilities - you can build production-grade applications not just prototypes
- Production deployment experience including performance optimisation, data pipeline architecture, permissioning at scale, audit requirements, and operational maintenance
