Arlington, Virginia

AI Strategy and Engineering in Arlington, VA.

The Pentagon, DARPA, and the largest concentration of defense decision-makers in the country. Arlington is where DoD technology strategy originates and where programs execute.

The defense center of gravity

Arlington anchors the entire U.S. defense enterprise.

The Pentagon houses the Office of the Secretary of Defense, the Joint Staff, and the headquarters of all military services. DARPA operates from Arlington, funding breakthrough technology programs that shape military capability for decades. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency, Defense Contract Management Agency, and Office of Naval Research all maintain Arlington offices.

The U.S. Army awarded Palantir a 10-year, $10 billion Enterprise Agreement consolidating 75 contracts into a single framework for Foundry and AIP across the entire Army. That program is managed from Arlington. So is the demand for engineers who can deliver against it.
