About the Role

As a Platform Engineer on Palantir's Identity Platform team, you will design, build, and operate secure-by-design identity infrastructure and tooling. You will make identity governance and access management easier and more secure to implement for Palantirians and customers worldwide. Your work will shape the arc of these components from design to production.

Responsibilities

• Develop automation and tooling for corporate and customer-facing identity platforms
• Build, secure, and manage geo-redundant containerized services (EKS and ECS) in AWS and Azure
• Scale the implementation of Single Sign-On (SSO) integrations across multiple Entra ID tenants using infrastructure-as-code frameworks
• Build tooling to standardize and scale operational workflows across AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP)
• Extend the identity platform to non-human identities, treating workloads and AI agents as first-class principals with scoped, short-lived credentials
• Build the governance layer: an access graph that makes entitlements legible and a policy engine that makes authorization decisions enforceable and auditable
• Design token-issuance and federation flows that make least-privilege, ephemeral access the default
• Research and drive adoption of emerging authentication and session security standards in collaboration with Security Engineers
• Pressure-test designs and partner with Identity Security Engineers to threat model implementations before they ship
• Partner with Security Compliance Engineers to build services that reduce the cost and complexity of compliance enforcement

Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), DevOps, software engineering, or an equivalent discipline, with a strong passion for security
• Experience deploying and operating containerized services (EKS, ECS, or similar) in AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud
• Experience building and operating production services or APIs, not only automation scripts
• Expert-level proficiency in a language such as Go (preferred), Python, or TypeScript
• Experience with infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Helm, CloudFormation, or similar)
• An active TS/SCI security clearance, or eligibility and willingness to obtain one

Skills

• Technical proficiency in identity protocols (SAML, OIDC, OAuth 2.0, LDAP, Kerberos, FIDO2, WebAuthn)
• Experience managing identities and governance workflows on platforms such as Entra ID, Keycloak, AWS Cognito, or Okta
• Experience with policy engines and authorization-as-code, and with relationship-based access modeling or entitlement graph design
• Experience with token issuance and federation, including OAuth 2.0 token exchange, short-lived credentials, and workload identity federation
• Non-human identity experience: workload and machine identity (service-to-service authentication, mTLS, workload attestation), plus interest in agentic identity (agents as principals, delegation and on-behalf-of flows, and attribution across a delegation chain)
