The Role
 
We’re looking for Forward Deployed Site Reliability Engineers who can help us build, operate, and maintain high-performance, scalable, and reliable services for our production infrastructure, primarily across on-prem environments for the US Government.

Our team strives to automate processes wherever possible, using whichever tools are best for the job. You’ll travel to various locations where you will be the expert for Palantir’s infrastructure, helping partner teams build & configure their hardware and network for software to operate reliably within.
 
We strongly believe in engineering teams being responsible for the operations of their services in production. In this role, you’ll work closely with engineers to advocate and participate in sensible, scalable, systems design and share responsibility with them in diagnosing, resolving, and preventing production issues.
