Senior Technical Lead

Key Responsibilities

• Own end-to-end delivery of Palantir Foundry data pipelines, including ingestion, transformation, Foundry Rules (Java), and Ontology Object management.
• Lead the implementation of AIP Logic automations for requirement extraction, answer matching, scoring, and LLM-based document processing workflows.
• Design and maintain pipeline lineage, schedules, and monitoring to ensure data freshness and platform reliability.
• Build and maintain integration connectors between Foundry and external systems — Salesforce, Snowflake, REST APIs, and media sets.
• Manage and troubleshoot compute modules (Docker-based C# programs) used for document export and Word generation workflows.

Team Leadership & Code Quality

• Lead a team of 3–6 developers and data engineers, conducting code reviews, sprint planning, and technical mentoring.
• Define coding standards, branching strategies, pull request processes, and repository hygiene for Foundry code repositories.
• Translate architecture blueprints from Technical Architects into sprint-ready technical tasks with clear acceptance criteria.
• Identify and resolve technical blockers, escalating to Palantir or architecture teams as needed with well-documented issue descriptions.

Day-2 Support & Operational Excellence

• Serve as the technical lead for Day-2 support — owning SOP runbooks, triage playbooks, and on-call readiness for Palantir-based platforms.
• Monitor pipeline health, respond to PagerDuty alerts, resolve schema conflicts, credential failures, and build failures in production environments.
• Proactively identify performance bottlenecks (e.g., long-running campaign builds, massive dataset joins) and drive optimization.
• Lead Day-2 support training sessions for new team members and client stakeholders, covering system architecture, common failure modes, and escalation paths.

Collaboration & Stakeholder Communication

• Work directly with Architects to validate technical designs and surface implementation risks early.
• Engage with client technical counterparts and Palantir forward-deployed engineers to align on platform capabilities and best practices.
• Provide clear, concise status updates on delivery progress, blockers, and technical risks to project leadership.
