Palantir is known for building technology used in defense, energy, and other high-stakes operational environments where software has to work in the real world, not just on a roadmap. In this episode, a16z partner Erin Price-Wright sits down with Akshay Krishnaswamy, Chief Architect at Palantir, to explain the company’s Forward Deployed Engineer model. They discuss what forward-deployed engineering actually is, how it differs from services or solutions roles, and why it has become central to building software for complex, mission-critical problems. The conversation also explores the tradeoffs of the model, including how to avoid turning into a consultancy, how it shapes product development and hiring, and when this approach makes sense for founders building infrastructure and enterprise companies.
