Being part of Decho means working at the cutting edge of Palantir technology and harnessing its capabilities with purpose. Our teams are united in their mission to be drivers of positive change in the world’s most influential organisations. This includes strengthening our advantage in the defence, infrastructure and public safety – empowering more public and private institutions to unlock their full potential.
The Role
As a Managing Engineer – Forward Deployed – you will operate with high individual, team and client ownership. You will be accountable for the day to day management of your project stakeholder relationship. Leading a team of engineers; who design solutions that unify complex data landscapes, build workflows that drive smarter decisions and partner with organisations to deliver sustainable transformation. Working directly with your clients, you will be the face of Decho, requiring a unique blend of technical mastery and high emotional intelligence (EQ) to navigate complex environments. You will enable your deployment engineers to have creative freedom to architect solutions, working iteratively to build fast, demonstrate their work to clients and refine it based on real-time feedback.
What You’ll Do
- End-to-End Delivery: Take significant ownership of client problems, handling everything from deep data engineering knowing that may require low/no code Palantir Foundry tooling, or Python and PySpark ark code repos – to building user-facing front-end applications and widgets in TypeScript or REACT
- Client Advisory & Translation: Sit directly alongside clients, distinguish their goals, requirements and translate complex technical language into stakeholder appropriate communication
- AI Integration: Actively embed AI workflows into existing applications using cutting-edge tools like AIP Logic Functions, AIP Analysts, and AIFDE
- Decho Labs Innovation: Contribute to Decho Labs to build tangible internal products. Feed your deployment learnings back into the company so our teams learn from your success and we create compounding assets of value for internally and for our clients
- Innate Collaboration: Driving deployment day-to-day self-assignment of taskings. Actively drive participation across all levels in our “show and tell” culture through teachbacks and tech reviews and uplift your colleagues through our highly active internal support channels
What We Are Looking For
- Problem Solvers: We expect individuals to influence highly nuanced client environments. We care more about your ability to drive ownership across decomposition of complex use cases and architectural solutions than rote memorising of coding syntax
- Fluency in multiple core languages (Python, SQL, TypeScript and/or REACT) and the capability to pick up others quickly. You are highly competent across complex data engineering principles, ETL pipelines and application development
- Familiarity with Palantir (Foundry, Gotham, or similar) is preferred but not mandatory provided you have a demonstrable ability to learn fast and apply at pace
- High EQ & Curiosity: The emotional intelligence to influence client expectations, a proactive self-starting nature and the humility to know you don’t know everything and search for and accept help.
- Leading from the front: Experience in driving high standards and upskilling engineers across different environments
- Impact-Driven Communication: Accountable for engineers’ capability to present impressive demos, simplify complexity for non-technical users and focus on delivering genuine client impact as an individual and across your project team
