Life at Palantir
We want every Palantirian to achieve their best outcomes, that’s why we celebrate individuals’ strengths, skills, and interests, from your first interview to your longterm growth, rather than rely on traditional career ladders.

In keeping consistent with Palantir’s values and culture, we believe employees are “better together” and in-person work affords the opportunity for more creative outcomes. Therefore, we encourage employees to work from our offices to foster connectivity and innovation. Many teams do offer hybrid options (WFH a day or two a week), allowing our employees to strike the right trade-off for their personal productivity. Based on business need, there are a few roles that allow for “Remote” work on an exceptional basis. If you are applying for one of these roles, you must work from the state in which you are employed. If the posting is specified as Onsite, you are required to work from an office.
If you want to empower the world's most important institutions, you belong here. Palantir values excellence regardless of background. We are proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer for all, including but not limited to Veterans and those with disabilities. Palantir is committed to making the application and hiring process accessible to everyone and will provide a reasonable accommodation for those living with a disability. If you need an accommodation for the application or hiring process, please reach out and let us know how we can help.
Please note that you will never be asked to submit a payment or share financial information to participate in our interview process. If you suspect that you've been contacted by a scammer, we recommend you cease all communication with the individual and consider reporting them to the relevant authorities, such as the US FBI Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3).
If you would like to understand more about how your personal data will be processed by Palantir, please see our Privacy Policy.
Core Responsibilities
Develop automation and tooling for corporate and customer-facing identity platforms
Build, secure, and manage geo-redundant containerized services (EKS and ECS) in AWS and Azure
Scale the implementation of Single Sign-On (SSO) integrations across multiple Entra ID tenants using infrastructure-as-code frameworks
Build tooling to standardize and scale operational workflows across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
Extend the identity platform to non-human identities, treating workloads and AI agents as first-class principals with scoped, short-lived credentials
Build the governance layer: an access graph that makes entitlements legible and a policy engine that makes authorization decisions enforceable and auditable
Design token-issuance and federation flows that make least-privilege, ephemeral access the default
Research and drive adoption of emerging authentication and session security standards (such as device-bound session credentials and continuous access evaluation) in collaboration with Security Engineers
Pressure-test designs and partner with Identity Security Engineers to threat model implementations before they ship
Partner with Security Compliance Engineers to build services that reduce the cost and complexity of compliance enforcement
What We Value
Technical proficiency in identity protocols (SAML, OIDC, OAuth 2.0, LDAP, Kerberos, FIDO2, WebAuthn)
Experience managing identities and governance workflows on platforms such as Entra ID, Keycloak, AWS Cognito, or Okta
Experience with policy engines and authorization-as-code, and with relationship-based access modeling or entitlement graph design
Experience with token issuance and federation, including OAuth 2.0 token exchange, short-lived credentials, and workload identity federation
Non-human identity experience: workload and machine identity (service-to-service authentication, mTLS, workload attestation), plus interest in agentic identity (agents as principals, delegation and on-behalf-of flows, and attribution across a delegation chain)
What We Require
3+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), DevOps, software engineering, or an equivalent discipline, with a strong passion for security
Experience deploying and operating containerized services (EKS, ECS, or similar) in AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud
Experience building and operating production services or APIs, not only automation scripts
Expert-level proficiency in a language such as Go (preferred), Python, or TypeScript
Experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Helm, CloudFormation, or similar)
An active TS/SCI security clearance, or eligibility and willingness to obtain one
