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 drugs, forecast supply chain disruptions, locate missing children, and more.

The Role

Palantir’s dynamic in-house legal team works to proactively address legal issues so that Palantir can continue to drive positive impact in the world. As Legal Counsel, you will be a key contributor to both the Legal team and the company as a whole. We’re a team that values both creativity and teamwork - whether operating solo or collaboratively, we endeavour to achieve great results on challenging, time-sensitive projects. You'll be given open ended objectives and will find ways to turn them into outcomes. By focusing on the broad vision without losing sight of the details, you'll bring large and multi-phase projects to successful completion while prioritising team outcomes over individual wins. You are able to deliver complex information in an understandable way, and can manage high touch stakeholders in a constantly shifting landscape.

You enjoy the responsibility that comes with owning problems and finding solutions. You are empathetic and able to effectively navigate a complex organisation involving a wide variety of audiences, including under time-sensitive situations. You are ready to jump into a deal at a moment’s notice and become an expert on the intricate details of the contracts that enable Palantir to implement its cutting-edge technology to solve real-world problems. You are passionate about conceiving and implementing scalable systems that increase your impact, and that of the in-house legal team, over time.
