Who We Are At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission-critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. So why work at Kyndryl? We are always moving forward – always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities. The Role Are you passionate about taking AI out of the lab and applying it to real-world business challenges? Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where rapid prototyping meets rigorous engineering standards? Then there’s a good chance you will love being a part of our AI Engineering team at Kyndryl, where you will see the immediate impact of your solutions on our clients' success. As a Forward Deployed Engineer at Kyndryl, you will be at the forefront of designing, developing, and implementing cutting-edge AI software solutions. Your work will be allocated directly to high-impact sales pursuits and active AI client projects. You will play a critical role in demonstrating the value of our technology, delivering code that solves complex problems, and applying strong software design principles to ensure our innovations are scalable and reliable. You will be responsible for developing and maintaining the standardized toolsets that enable agents within state-of-the-art agentic frameworks to interact with external systems. Using Python and core AI frameworks, you will architect the solution, test the code, and implement the MCP (Model Context Protocol), APIs, and message brokers required for microservice integration. You will ensure that all implemented components are appropriately documented, unit-tested, and deployed via modern CI/CD and containerization pipelines. As a valued member of our team, you will provide work estimates for assigned development work and guide features, functional objectives, or technologies being built for interested parties. You will have the freedom to drive innovation, utilizing your expertise in rapid prototyping to deliver value fast, while using your deep engineering knowledge to ensure those prototypes can scale into enterprise-grade solutions.

Who You Are You’re good at what you do and possess the required experience to prove it. However, equally as important – you have a growth mindset; keen to drive your own personal and professional development. You are customer-focused – someone who prioritizes customer success in their work. And finally, you’re open and borderless – naturally inclusive in how you work with others.
