Generative AI Data Scientist (Palantir – Must Have)

Job Title: Manager – Generative AI Data Scientist (Palantir – Must Have) Location: Atlanta, GA | Hybrid (3–4 days onsite) Job Overview: We are seeking a highly skilled and visionary Data Science Manager with deep expertise in Generative AI and Palantir Foundry/AIP to lead our AI initiatives. In this role, you will architect and operationalize enterprise-grade GenAI solutions, including LLM-based applications, RAG pipelines, and model fine-tuning workflows. You will mentor a team of data scientists and engineers while collaborating with cross-functional stakeholders to deliver transformative AI products across Foundry environments. Key Responsibilities: • Lead and mentor a team of data scientists in designing, building, and deploying Generative AI solutions using Palantir Foundry, Ontology, Object Types, and AIP logic. • Define the roadmap and strategy for GenAI adoption in AIP, ensuring alignment with business objectives. • Oversee fine-tuning and adaptation of foundation models using Foundry-integrated pipelines, including custom training datasets and model evaluation workflows. • Design and implement scalable Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) pipelines using AIP Logics and Foundry Code Workbooks, integrating embedding models and vector databases (FAISS, Pinecone, ChromaDB). • Establish best practices for prompt engineering, model evaluation, and bias mitigation within Foundry governance and audit frameworks. • Collaborate with product, engineering, and MLOps teams to deliver end-to-end AI workflows and integrate GenAI outputs into Workshop applications, APIs, and dashboards. • Monitor and apply emerging trends in LLMs, transformers, and GenAI to continuously innovate Foundry-native implementations. • Represent the Data Science team in leadership forums, communicating technical concepts and business impact effectively. Required Skills & Experience: • 10+ years in Data Science / Machine Learning, with at least 3 years leading teams and hands-on experience in LLMs / Generative AI on enterprise platforms like Palantir. • Proven track record delivering AI solutions from concept to production, including ontology design, pipeline orchestration, and Workshop deployment. • Strong proficiency in Python and ML/AI frameworks (Transformers, LangChain, PyTorch, TensorFlow, Hugging Face), integrated into Foundry Code Workbooks and AIP logic. • Experience with LLMs (e.g., GPT-4, Claude, Mistral, LLaMA) and GenAI ecosystems (LangChain, LlamaIndex, PromptFlow). • Knowledge of embedding models, semantic search, and vector databases, with practical Foundry integration experience. • Familiarity with MLOps practices, particularly in hybrid cloud environments involving Palantir. • Strong leadership, people management, and stakeholder management skills. • Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence technical and non-technical audiences, especially in Foundry governance and data stewardship contexts.
