Software Engineer Intern in New York

The Role

The Connectivity team builds products that connect our most critical institutions to their most critical data. These products securely integrate databases, enterprise applications, cloud storage, web services, and streaming systems, so customers can bring data into Foundry and write back to their operational systems.

You will work across the stack, owning and building features across our UI, backend services, and compute platforms. You will work closely with experienced engineers, FDEs, and other teams to scope and build new Connectivity products and integrations, along with toolkits such as APIs, SDKs, authentication flows, and security frameworks. This role is expected to be about 75% backend and 25% frontend.

Core Responsibilities

• Build SDKs and integrations that let customers and internal teams connect to external systems
• Launch features that enable new ways of connecting data
• Work on Foundry security, including securing connected AI agents and pipelines in sensitive environments
• Identify, diagnose, and fix performance and correctness issues in high scale connectivity workflows
• Work with infrastructure teams to expose networking functionality to users
• Scale new connectivity products from first use to billions

Technologies We Use

• Java and Python
• Open-source tools such as Cassandra, Kubernetes, Envoy, GraphQL, and React
• Protocols such as TCP, UDP, TLS, and HTTP
• Gradle for builds and GitHub for collaboration

You do not need prior experience with these technologies. You will learn them here.

What We Value

• Curiosity about connectivity in cloud systems, from networking to productization, security, and authentication
• An ownership mindset and a high bar for usability, security, and correctness in production
• Comfort following problems across languages, APIs, services, networks, and execution environments
• Eagerness to learn, ask questions, and act on feedback

Palantir encourages employees to work from its offices, and many teams offer hybrid options. This role is onsite, so you are required to work from an office.
