Description

Are you excited about building world-class platforms that power mission-critical software at a huge scale? Apollo enables autonomous management and continuous deployment of software, wherever it is. We're taking SAAS to where SAAS has not gone before: from on-premise, to various cloud providers, to disconnected environments (air-gapped), to strict accreditation frameworks including IL-5 and FedRAMP, and to the edge.

As a Software Engineer on the Apollo platform, you will build software at scale to transform how organisations around the world deploy software. You will be responsible for mission-critical software powering deployment of software for both Palantir and its customers in the commercial and government space.

Core Responsibilities:

  • Build and maintain highly available systems responsible for orchestration of software deployment across hundreds of production environments
  • Engage and solve problems that customers need today with a tight feedback loop for what is important and what works
  • Working directly with other teams to solve problems that cross the team boundary
  • Debug complex issues and performance problems throughout the stack

What We Value:

  • Some familiarity with containers (Docker) and orchestration (Kubernetes)
  • Experience developing and managing highly-available distributed systems
  • Demonstrated success building systems that meet requirements around monitoring, stability, and scalability
  • Experience building high-quality software in a fast-paced CI/CD development environment
  • High empathy for developer and operators workflows and productivity

Requirements:

  • Experience in Software Engineering, Computer Science, Math, Physics or similar field
  • Strong software developer with demonstrated proficiency in programming languages, such as Java, Golang, C++, or equivalent
  • Demonstrated ability to learn and work independently and make good decisions with minimal direction
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills
  • Great problem-solving skills with ability to evolve complex systems
