Job Description

A World-Changing Company

Palantir builds the world’s leading software for data-driven decisions and operations. By bringing the right data to the people who need it, our platforms empower our partners to develop lifesaving drugs, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, and more.

The Role

Our products support some of the most important and impactful work in the world, including defense, intelligence, and commercial applications. We are trusted by our customers to protect their mission-critical information in the face of advanced persistent threats. The mission of the Security Infrastructure team is to build platforms and software to enable our products and teams to provide the highest level of assurance to our customers. This role has wide-reaching impact, strong autonomy, and the resources and empowerment to make significant security improvements across all of Palantir. The skills and background of successful candidates may vary, but curiosity, tenacity, and a drive to be an extraordinary security engineer are the underpinnings of our team.

Palantir faces all manner of adversaries including hacktivists, criminal enterprises, and nation states. The infrastructure you will own powers our global information security program to detect and defeat them.

As a Site Reliability Engineer on our Security Infrastructure team, you will be hands-on and have wide-ranging impact for the security of Palantir and its customers. You will be responsible for:

•  Architecting and operating multiple, geographically distributed Kubernetes clusters supporting our mission software. These clusters run in cloud as well as air-gapped environments.
•  Operating multi-petabyte, distributed security information and event management systems that handle dozens of terabytes of security telemetry daily.
•  Operating security orchestration automation, and response (SOAR) clusters.
•  Associated data and telemetry pipelines. We ingest data from hundreds of discrete sources to arm our network defenders. Keeping these data pipelines lean, healthy, secure, and timely is germane to our detection and investigation workflows.
