Our portfolio spans over-the-air (OTA) update systems, simulation training platforms, fleet sustainment software, and enterprise applications supporting aircraft manufacturing.
We’re growing quickly and looking for a Full-Stack Software Engineer to help design, develop, and deploy robust applications that directly enable manufacturing, operational planning, and execution — all within a Foundry-integrated ecosystem.
If you thrive in fast-moving environments, enjoy solving complex problems with modern software, and want to see your code deliver immediate impact, this role is for you.
What you'll do:
- Execute the development and release of Foundry-backed applications that power MES, ERP, and operational analytics.
- Develop end-to-end features: From backend services and data transformations to user-facing interfaces — ensuring performance, maintainability, and security.
- Collaborate with production managers, engineers, and supply chain teams to understand workflows and deliver scalable software solutions.
- Leverage Palantir Foundry: Use Foundry’s APIs, ontology, and visualization tools to integrate data across multiple domains.
- Deliver continuously: Write well-tested, maintainable code and iterate quickly based on real-world feedback.
- Shape the roadmap: Contribute to technical direction, make sound architecture decisions, and help scale our Foundry development capabilities.
Required qualifications:
- 5+ years of experience in full-stack application development with proven ownership of deployed solutions.
- Hands-on experience designing and building React application and TypeScipt/Javascript based backend (API)
- Strong skills in data modeling, working with large datasets, and building analytical workflows.
- Solid foundation in software design, testing, and documentation.
- Ability to deliver complex projects independently while collaborating effectively across teams.
Preferred qualifications:
- Familiarity with Palantir Foundry (ontology, pipelines, APIs, visualization) or other large-scale data platforms.
- Hands-on experience designing and operating Python data-processing pipelines
- Experience building software for manufacturing, supply chain or aircraft maintenance.
- Familiarity with modern software delivery practices (version control, testing, CI/CD).
