Requirements
~1 min readFDE Academy USA is a one-week, in-person bootcamp at our Denver Tech Center office. You'll spend five days building real solutions on Palantir Foundry alongside our engineering team — no lectures, no theory-only sessions, just hands-on education on a realistic use case. At the end of the week, our top performers walk away with a job offer to join Unit8 as a Forward Deployed Engineer.
No prior Foundry experience required. We're looking for people who learn fast, think in systems, and are energized by ambiguous problems — not people who already know the platform.
- Day 1 — Foundry fundamentals, environment setup, your first guided build
- Day 2–4 — Applied build sprints: ontology modeling, data pipelines, and a Workshop application, with our engineers pairing alongside you through a realistic but self-contained challenge that mirrors real client work
- Day 5 — Present what you built
- On the next Monday - top performers get a call from our recruiting team
- Recent or upcoming graduate in Computer Science, Data Engineering, or a related field
- Solid CS fundamentals: data structures, algorithms, databases, and at least one general-purpose language (Python, Java, TypeScript, or similar)
- Coursework, personal projects, hackathons, or internships that show you can build, not just study
- Comfort with ambiguity and a fast learning curve — you won't know Foundry/AIP yet, and that's fine
- Curiosity about how data platforms power real decisions in industries like manufacturing, energy, and financial services
- Format: Fully in-person, Denver Tech Center (DTC), CO
- Duration: 1 week
- Equipment: Bring your laptop
- Cohort: Small group, working closely on realistic challenges with Unit8 engineers all week
Submit your CV and complete a short technical assessment. We'll confirm your spot in the cohort ahead of the bootcamp week.
