Forward Deployed Infrastructure Engineer, Internship - US Government

As an FDIE intern, your responsibilities look similar to those at a small startup, with the resources, stability, and mentorship of an established tech company. You’ll work in small teams with minimal supervision and own end-to-end execution of real infrastructure projects. Your day might span discussing systems architecture with fellow engineers, debugging a production issue, building automation to eliminate a manual process, or deploying new Palantir products across production environments. FDIE interns are treated just like full-time engineers, with significant freedom and ownership over their work. Specifically, you can expect to:

Deploy and operate Palantir software across production environments, including monitoring, alerting, configuration management, and upgrades

Debug, improve, and optimize Palantir’s services and infrastructure with a focus on long-term reliability and scalability

Reduce manual operations by automating workflows, processes, and runbooks wherever possible

Develop novel solutions in Palantir’s Foundry and Apollo platforms to solve infrastructure challenges
