About You
You are proficient in Python and have experience in a previous or current job writing code on a day-to-day basis. You understand the challenges of finding the right data to answer a problem, cleaning data, and then distilling findings to executive-level insights under extreme time pressure. You are a master data manipulator — able to design systems, implement pipelines, decomp existing codebases, and clearly present findings to leadership.
You are a problem solver who loves gathering information from various sources, analyzing and presenting your recommendations to technical teams, business partners, and Palantir leadership.
