With a focus on high-impact transformation, turnaround, and performance improvement, the firm partners with clients across industries, including aerospace and defense, to deliver results when it matters most.

#### About the Role

AlixPartners is seeking a highly skilled, U.S.-based Front-End Developer for a part-time freelance engagement, with the potential to extend into a full-time role. This role focuses on building and enhancing front-end experiences within Palantir Foundry, supporting data-driven analytics dashboards used in high-stakes business environments.

The ideal candidate is a senior, adaptable developer who thrives in a dynamic environment, deals well with ambiguity, brings strong business acumen, and can contribute strategic insights - not just code. You’ll work closely with internal stakeholders to iterate on dashboard improvements and new feature development, often in industries like aerospace and defense. 

This role is ideal for a mature developer who not only delivers high-quality code but also acts as a thought partner challenging assumptions, suggesting alternative approaches, and helping stakeholders uncover better solutions. If you enjoy solving messy problems, working directly with decision-makers, and shaping the final product, not just executing tasks you’ll thrive in this role.

#### Required Skills

- U.S. Citizenship (required due to project security considerations)
- Deep experience with Vega (JSON-based) charting in Palantir Foundry, including multi-layer and complex visualizations
- Strong UX/UI experience (send portfolio examples in addition to resume)
- Strong front-end development experience (JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML, CSS)
- Expertise with Palantir Foundry platform
- Ability to look at the big picture and translate ambiguous requirements into effective front-end solutions
- Strong communication skills for engaging with non-technical stakeholders
- Comfortable working independently in a fast-paced, fast-changing environment, with maturity to effectively prioritize, make tradeoffs, and suggest alternatives

#### Nice to Have Skills

- Back-end development experience or familiarity with full-stack environments
- Previous consulting experience or exposure to enterprise clients
- Familiarity with aerospace, defense, or other regulated industries
- Startup or product-oriented mindset with a bias toward action and iteration

#### Additional Information

- Engagement Type: Part-time freelance (initial 4 weeks), with potential for full-time extension up to 3 months; Engagement may expand as client needs evolve—initial part-time scope is guaranteed, with potential to flex into full-time depending on project demand

- Location Requirement: U.S.-based candidates only; must be U.S. citizens who live in the U.S. (green card holders NOT eligible for this role)

- Working Style: Remote, flexible hours with high autonomy; We value speed and pragmatism - solving today’s problem quickly, then iterating tomorrow as requirements evolve

- Team Dynamic: Expect frequent iteration and evolving requirements; looking for proactive problem-solvers
