Summary Generated by Built In
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 technologies, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, improve the efficacy of the American government, and more.
The Program
Neurodivergent individuals will play a disproportionate role in shaping the future of America and the West. They see past performative ideologies and perceive beauty in the world that still exists — which technology and art can expose.
The current LLM tech landscape positions them to dominate. Pattern recognition. Non-linear thinking. Hyperfocus. The cognitive traits that make the neurodivergent different are precisely what make them exceptional in an AI-driven world.
Palantir is launching the Neurodivergent Fellowship as a recruitment pathway for exceptional neurodivergent talent. This is not a diversity initiative. We believe neurodivergent individuals will have a competitive advantage as elite builders of the next technological era, and we're hiring accordingly for all roles.
This program is designed for those who think differently, and that's the point. Whether you're self-taught, formally educated, or somewhere in between, we're looking for builders who can see patterns others miss and solutions others overlook.
The Role
You'll join Palantir as a full-time employee to build software and deliver customer outcomes. You'll work on real problems: helping customers deploy AI-powered solutions, building the software platforms of the future, and transforming how organizations operate. You'll be held to the same performance standards as any Palantir engineer, and your career progression will be based purely on merit and impact.
We move fast. We expect excellence. We don't require you to sit still.
What We’re Looking For
We want excellent people from any background (no formal diagnosis or disclosure required).
What We Require
- Eligibility to work in the United States
- Willingness to work in New York or Washington, D.C.
