Northslope builds custom products for ambitious organizations that are reinventing their industries - from the largest fortune 500 companies and governments to the smallest startups. We solve our customers' most mission-critical problems with unmatched velocity, bringing their disparate enterprise data into operator-centered workflows that move atoms in the real world and change how people approach their work each day.

We build our products on the Palantir Foundry & AIP platform, the world's first Enterprise Operating system. We focus on enterprise-wide data integration, practical deployment of ML and LLM solutions, and deep understanding of operator's pain points. We build ironman suits for operators, so they can better achieve their mission and deliver more value to the bottom line.

At Northslope, we're built different. Traditional professional services companies are designed for years-long, cookie‑cutter projects that stay the same day in and day out. We take pride in being more like a product startup than a traditional services firm. We value velocity, ingenuity, and grit, and we relentlessly focus on delivering tangible outcomes for our customers.

We also have fun. We get to work on big, hard problems, in a fast‑paced environment, alongside sharp teammates who help us continuously grow and delight in one another's successes. We offer full benefits and all the perks you'd expect of a modern tech startup, and we are a distributed global team with hubs in London, New York, and Denver.

• Only Valuable Problems: Not every problem is worth solving. We work on the projects that will significantly improve our customers' bottom lines.
• Outcomes, Not Activity: We create value, not extract it. We focus on our business impact, not racking up billable hours.
• Forward Deployed Engineering: We never build in a vacuum. We go to the heart of the problem and build alongside our users.
• Expand the Possible: AIP & Foundry are powerful. We keep our eyes on the horizon to spot new opportunities for value on the platform.

At Northslope, you'll get to build products that solve mission-critical problems at large customers across a variety of industries, alongside a team of sharp, high-horsepower, caring people who want to win. If you're looking for a fast‑paced, high‑growth environment and an opportunity to work on a wide array of big problems, we'd love to chat.

Northslope is committed to building a strong, diverse team.
