Palantir Foundry Engineer

About the Position

We are seeking a Palantir Foundry & AIP Engineer with hands-on experience across the full Foundry ecosystem and Palantir’s Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP). This role goes beyond data engineering: you will design, build, and operationalize AI-powered workflows, agents, and applications that drive tangible business outcomes. The ideal candidate is a self-starter, able to translate complex business needs into scalable technical solutions, and confident working directly with stakeholders to maximize the value of Foundry and AIP.

Responsibilities

• AIP & AI Enablement:
  • Support the design and deployment of AIP use cases such as copilots, retrieval workflows, and decision-support agents.
  • Ground agents and logic flows using RAG (retrieval-augmented generation) by connecting to relevant data sources, embedding/vector search, ontology content.
  • Use Ontology-Augmented Generation (OAG) when needed: operational decision making where logic, data, actions, and relationships are embedded in the Ontology.
  • Collaborate with senior engineers on agent design, instructions, and evaluation using AIP’s native features.
• End-to-End Delivery: Work with stakeholders to capture requirements, design solutions, and deliver working applications.
• User Engagement: Provide training and support for business teams adopting Foundry and AIP.
• Governance & Trust: Ensure solutions meet standards for data quality, governance, and responsible use of AI.
• Continuous Improvement: Identify opportunities to expand AIP adoption and improve workflow automation.

Requirements

• Minimum 10 years of experience in IT/Data.
• Minimum 5 years of experience as a Data Platform Engineer/Data Engineer.
• 2+ years of professional experience with the Palantir Foundry ecosystem (data integration, ontology, pipelines, applications).
• Strong technical skills in Python, PySpark, SQL, and data modelling.
• Practical experience using or supporting AIP features such as RAG workflows, copilots, or agent-based applications.
• Ability to work independently and engage directly with non-technical business users.
• Strong problem-solving mindset and ownership of delivery.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with AIP Agent Studio concepts (agents, instructions, tools, testing).
• Exposure to AIP Evals and evaluation/test-driven approaches.
• Experience with integration patterns (APIs, MCP, cloud services).
• Consulting or applied AI/ML background.
• Experience in Abu Dhabi or the broader MENA region.
