Job Description

· Contribute to the development and deployment of GenAI solutions including prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), fine-tuning, AI agents, and multi-agent systems (MAS), with solutions operationalized through Palantir Foundry workflows, applications, and ontology-backed data products.

· Develop and integrate econometric and statistical models such as generalized linear models (GLMs), time-series models, and semi-parametric approaches into Foundry-based pipelines and analytical workflows.

· Build, train, and deploy machine learning models including XGBoost, random forests, and support vector machines, leveraging Foundry’s distributed compute environment (Spark / PySpark) for scalable feature engineering and model execution.

· Design, build, and maintain production-grade data pipelines in Palantir Foundry, including transforms on structured and unstructured datasets, supporting end-to-end ingestion, transformation, feature generation, and model scoring.

· Leverage Python, PySpark, SQL, and related Foundry tooling for large-scale data processing, transformation, and integration across multiple internal and external data sources.

· Contribute to Foundry ontology design and implementation, supporting ontology objects and links with pipelines aligned to modeling, application, and client workflow requirements.

· Ensure data quality, lineage, governance, and security across Foundry datasets and pipelines, supporting auditability and regulatory review.

· Support compliance with model risk management and AI governance standards including SR 11-7, Colorado SB21-169, NIST frameworks, ISO 42001, and NAIC Model Bulletins throughout model development, validation, deployment, and monitoring.

· Apply DevOps and MLOps best practices including Git-based version control, CI/CD, automated testing, infrastructure-as-code, and system monitoring in collaboration with Foundry, cloud, and data engineering teams.

· Deploy AI and analytics solutions into real-world client environments, integrating models with Foundry-powered applications, dashboards, and decision workflows.

· Monitor and research emerging AI, GenAI, and data-platform capabilities, incorporating new Foundry features and best practices into solution design.

· Support project delivery and client engagements, working with structured and unstructured data in Foundry to improve business processes, operational workflows, and data-driven decision-making.

· Support documentation and technical analysis for validators, auditors, and regulators, including detailed descriptions of Foundry pipelines, ontologies, modeling logic, and controls; communicate complex concepts clearly to non-technical stakeholders. · Collaborate with cross-functional teams including data engineers, architects, and data scientists to deliver scalable, high-quality Foundry-enabled AI and analytics solutions aligned to client needs.

· Mentor and support associates and senior associates, providing coaching, technical guidance, and hands-on support across AI modeling and Palantir Foundry development.

· Support business development activities, including technical solutioning, participation in sales cycles, and contribution to proposals that highlight Palantir-enabled AI and analytics capabilities.

· Contribute to the development of internal GenAI assets and foundational platforms, building reusable Foundry pipelines, ontologies, and analytics components to scale the firm’s practice.
