At PVM, we serve those who serve, as a Palantir ally for mission impact. We are a veteran-founded, Palantir Vanguard partner - and the only small business providing services in that tier. In Huntsville, that means helping our government partners tackle real problems in National Security, Readiness, and Space - not building shelfware.

Help Us Build PVM's Huntsville Hub

This role is an opportunity to take a front seat in PVM's Huntsville hub - you'll have front-row proximity to mission, direct mentorship from Palantir experts, and a clear growth path as you get in early while we are building the hub from the ground up. You'll be working in small, senior teams with real autonomy and be able to truly own your work-without the bureaucracy you may find at large companies.

About the Role

You are the technical leader for your hub's implementations. You own architecture, secure code delivery, team mentorship, and forward-looking research to ensure every solution is innovative, scalable, and mission-ready. At PVM, a Delta doesn't just oversee code. You architect solutions, lead delivery on projects, mentor builders, and stay ahead of trends, combining deep technical expertise with leadership, to multiply mission impact.
