American Tech Fellowship

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, power decisions on the battlefield, locate missing children, and more.

In the 20th century, America pioneered mass production. We built the Arsenal of Democracy and won the war. Then we left this mighty Arsenal to rust. Silicon Valley, a product of Heartland work ethic, turned its back on the American worker.
It's time to reawaken the giant.
The same spirit of practical innovation that enabled America to dominate the previous century lives on in every American factory, workshop, and garage today. Some fear the proliferation of Artificial Intelligence, but we see the opportunity for a technological and industrial renaissance.
Palantir is launching the American Tech Fellowship to arm Americans with the skills to deploy cutting-edge software in the workforce. You will have an opportunity to explore and build on Palantir's Artificial Intelligence Platform (AIP) and earn a professional certification in its use. Exceptional performers will earn an opportunity to interview for a role at Palantir or partner companies, where you can use your newfound skills to contribute to the revival of American industry.
This fellowship is about more than careers. It's about restoring the promise that hard work and determination can still change your life in America. It's an investment in American excellence, and evidence of our belief that America's greatest builders are still to be discovered.
The American worker, given the right tools and opportunity, remains our competitive advantage. It's time to prove it.

In this fellowship, you'll participate in a comprehensive training program with our partner, Ontologize, to level up your technical skills on Foundry and AIP. You'll learn how to deploy Palantir's advanced software to solve tough problems in enterprise settings and have the opportunity to engage directly with Palantir engineers and leadership.
The fellowship runs for 12 weeks, beginning on January 13, 2027. You are expected to attend live virtual sessions on two weeknights each week. We will also have optional sessions once a week and office hours throughout the duration of the program. Expect to spend 10 to 15 hours per week on instruction and project work throughout the fellowship.
This program provides valuable training to participants and is unpaid.
The window for submitting American Tech Fellowship applications is now through December 11, 2026.
