Palantir Foundry
Pipelines. Ontology. Workshop.
Generic Palantir courses teach you the platform. BaileyFinch teaches your team how to build what you actually need, using your own data and real use cases. Your team owns this Foundry instance for years. They should know how to run it.
Discuss Training for Your Team →Why training matters
You will own this Foundry instance for years. At some point, your team needs to know how to add datasets, modify transforms, update Workshop modules, and fix broken builds themselves. That is when the platform starts delivering real value: when internal teams can operate it without waiting on external support.
Palantir's standard training covers the basics. It does not teach you how to model your specific data, design an ontology that makes sense for your workflows, or structure code repositories that stay maintainable over time. That is what we focus on.
Training designed around your environment, your data, and the skills your team actually needs.
Training modules
Each module uses your actual data and environment. Participants build real artifacts they can use after training ends, not throwaway exercises.
We walk through your data sources and build transforms together: cleaning data, joining datasets, writing incremental logic that does not reprocess everything every run. Participants leave knowing how to build and debug production pipelines.
Data source configuration, Python and SQL transforms, incremental builds, build scheduling, debugging failed builds, code repository structure.
This is where most teams struggle. We map your data to object types, define relationships that match your business logic, and build action workflows. You learn the patterns that scale and the mistakes that cause problems later.
Object type modeling, link types and relationship cardinality, action logic, interfaces, function-backed properties, ontology migrations.
Building interfaces that people actually use takes more than dragging widgets onto a canvas. We cover module patterns, variable flows, and user experience decisions that make applications intuitive instead of confusing.
Workshop module types, board layouts, variable management, object set filtering, action triggers, map configurations, custom widgets.
If you are building for multiple organizations or business units, you need to understand spaces, organization markings, restricted views, and Marketplace packaging. We have built these architectures before and know where teams get stuck.
Organization and space design, security markings, restricted view policies, Marketplace product creation, cross-org data sharing patterns.
Delivery format and audience
01
Every exercise runs in your Foundry instance against your actual datasets. Participants build artifacts they will use after training ends. No sandbox environments with fake data that do not transfer to real work.
02
Sessions are capped to keep the instructor-to-participant ratio low. Everyone gets direct feedback on their work. This is not a lecture series; it is guided project work with engineers who have built production Foundry systems.
03
Pipeline and ontology modules target developers and data engineers. Workshop modules serve both developers and business analysts who need to build and modify applications. We meet your team where they are.
04
Basic programming experience helps but is not required for every module. Each participant needs their own Foundry account with appropriate permissions to build in your environment. We handle the rest.
Who this is for
Training is designed for organizations that are taking ownership of a Foundry instance and need their internal team to build, maintain, and extend it without permanent external support.
Federal Agencies
Agencies standing up a Foundry instance who need their civil servants and military personnel to operate the platform after contractors complete the initial build. Internal capacity from day one.
Defense Primes
Prime contractors adding Foundry to their delivery portfolio who need their engineers productive quickly. Hands-on training that eliminates the ramp-up period and gets to production delivery faster.
Existing Programs
Organizations already running Foundry who need to upskill their team on specific areas: Workshop development, advanced ontology patterns, multi-org architecture, or Code Repository best practices.
Tell us what your team needs to learn and we will design a training program around your actual use cases and environment.

For teams scaling an agent pilot, inheriting an agent system, or moving toward ATO.
