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
Account Executives are critical members of Palantir’s US Government team.

Palantir is fast-paced, and in this role you'll be expected to make decisions independently by weighing many needs and priorities.

- Develop customer profiles, including identifying target customer needs and the most effective way to address those needs.
- Establish and grow relationships with key executives.
- Drive pricing strategy and negotiation with support from contracts team and leadership.
What We Value
- In-depth knowledge of US Government procurement.
- Ability to think outside of the box / beyond traditional account strategies to reach goals.
- Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, highly technical environment. This will involve developing deep familiarity with Palantir's software platforms and how they can be used to solve a wide range of real-world problems.
What We Require
- Minimum 5 years of experience in a leadership role focused on account management and strategy.
- Experience building and managing relationships within DCSA.
- An active US Secret security clearance or higher.
