By combining human ingenuity with transformative technology, we develop innovative solutions that drive progress for the people and systems that strengthen our nation. Our mission is rooted in agility, scalability, and a commitment to exceeding expectations, ensuring impactful results for our clients and communities.

How You Will Make an Impact

Navaide is seeking a skilled Data Engineer to lead data engineering and analytics projects within the Palantir Foundry platform. The ideal candidate will be proficient in data architecture, processing, and solution development in Foundry’s native platform. This role involves close collaboration with various departments and key client stakeholders to design and implement data solutions that enhance operational efficiency and decision-making. If you are proactive, curious, and a skilled analytics technologist with a pragmatic approach to engineering challenges, this role may be perfect for you.

Key Duties & Responsibilities

Pipeline Design & Orchestration

  • Pipeline Development: Build and maintain ETL/ELT pipelines in Foundry’s Pipeline Builder and Code Repositories — from raw ingest through staging to curated, production-ready datasets.
  • Data Integration: Connect and sync external source systems into Foundry using Data Connection, unifying data across logistics, personnel, and financial domains.
  • Ontology Modeling: Design and extend object types, properties, and links in Ontology Manager, reflecting real-world mission processes and back downstream workflows.
  • Pipeline Hygiene: Enforce automation, version control, orchestration, and health monitoring via Data Lineage to keep data flows secure, repeatable, and auditable.
  • Architecture Standards: Define and enforce data architecture standards for distributed environments within Foundry and adjacent platforms.

Data Quality, Governance & Observability

  • Data Quality: Build scalable, rule-based methods in Foundry to assess accuracy, completeness, and timeliness — with feedback loops that drive remediation.
  • Lineage & Compliance: Leverage Data Lineage to trace dataset provenance, supporting discovery, traceability, and regulatory compliance.
  • Performance Optimization: Tune pipeline schedules, workloads, and resource allocation for cost-efficient, reliable performance.
  • Monitoring: Surface latency issues and pipeline failures against SLAs.

Collaboration & Standards Development

  • Cross-Team Partnership: Work directly with analysts, product leads, and mission stakeholders to translate requirements into clean, well-documented data products.
  • Technical Leadership: Mentor junior engineers and establish Foundry engineering standards for naming, object design, testing, and change management.

Relevant Skills & Experience

  • 4+ years of experience in data engineering, platform engineering, or analytics engineering
  • Hands-on experience building and maintaining production-grade pipelines, data connections, and ontologies in Palantir Foundry (Pipeline Builder, Code Repositories, Ontology Manager, Data Lineage, Workshop)
  • Strong proficiency in Python and SQL; comfort with TypeScript/JavaScript
  • Traditional data lakehouse experience (Databricks, Snowflake, dbt)
  • Familiarity with Foundry Data Connection architecture — setting up sources and syncs from external systems
  • Proven delivery in DoD or federal environments
  • Familiarity with Navy, DON, or DoD logistics, financial, or personnel data landscapes
  • Strong communication skills; able to work across technical and non-technical stakeholders
  • Palantir Foundry Data Engineer or Application Developer certification preferred
  • Eligibility to obtain US Government Security Clearance

Travel

Up to 10% travel, depending on environment cutovers, stakeholder design sessions, and validation/test events.

Education

Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Engineering, Information Systems, Mathematics, Physics, or a related technical field, or equivalent experience.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
