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

At Kyndryl, you’re not just taking on a job—you’re stepping into a role where your expertise shapes the future of enterprise data solutions. Unlike other companies, we give you the freedom and responsibility to lead transformative projects that impact global operations. You’ll work with cutting‑edge AWS technologies, collaborate with top‑tier professionals, and have a clear path to grow into leadership roles in cloud architecture and data engineering. If you want to make a real difference and accelerate your career, this is where you belong.

What will you do?

You’ll be the driving force behind migrating our on‑premises and SharePoint‑based data infrastructure to AWS. This isn’t just a technical migration—it’s a full‑scale modernization project where your decisions will define how data powers the business.

Here’s what your day‑to‑day will look like:

• Lead the migration strategy: Design and execute the move to AWS Data Analytics Platform (DAP) with zero disruption to ongoing operations.
• Re‑engineer workflows: Transform Python scripts and UiPath automations into AWS‑native solutions using SageMaker and Glue.
• Build robust pipelines: Create scalable ETL processes and data pipelines that integrate multiple sources like HRPS, Gateway, SharePoint, and more.
• Modernize dashboards: Migrate Tableau dashboards to AWS QuickSight while preserving functionality and user experience.
• Enable seamless access: Ensure HR officers and stakeholders can easily use dashboards and analytics in the new AWS environment.
• Document and train: Produce clear documentation and deliver training sessions so teams can confidently adopt the new systems.

What skills will make you successful?

You’ll thrive in this role if you bring:

• AWS Expertise: Hands‑on experience with SageMaker, QuickSight, Athena, Lambda, and serverless architecture.
• Infrastructure‑as‑Code: Proficiency in CloudFormation, YAML/JSON templates, and automated provisioning.
• Programming & Automation: Strong Python skills and experience with UiPath and Lambda for automation.
• Data Visualization: Ability to design dashboards in Tableau and QuickSight, plus knowledge of ETL and data pipeline design.
• DevOps Mindset: Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, GitLab, Nexus Repo, and infrastructure change management.
• Communication Skills: Strong technical writing and the ability to deliver training effectively.

Your Future at Kyndryl

This role is a launchpad for your career. After successfully leading this migration, you’ll be positioned for:

• Cloud Architecture Leadership: Move into roles where you define enterprise‑wide cloud strategies.
• Data Engineering Management: Lead teams building next‑generation data platforms.
• Specialization in AI/ML: Expand into advanced analytics and machine learning using AWS SageMaker.

At Kyndryl, we invest in your growth—through mentorship, certifications, and opportunities to lead global projects.

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.

• Experience using AWS services in Python and Command Line Interface.
• Proficiency in serverless architecture design and Lambda function development.

2. Infrastructure as Code (IaaC)

• Experience in Infrastructure‑as‑Code (eg. CloudFormation, YAML, JSON infrastructure scripts).
• Lambda function provisioning and management through IaaC templates.
• Integration of serverless components with traditional infrastructure resources.

3. Programming and Automation Skills

• Proficiency in Python programming and UiPath automation.
• Experience developing and deploying Lambda functions for data processing and automation.
• Understanding of event‑driven architecture and serverless computing patterns.

4. Data Visualisation and Analytics

• Strong background in Tableau and QuickSight dashboard development.
• Experience with ETL processes and data pipeline design.
• Knowledge of serverless data processing workflows using Lambda.

5. DevOps and Collaboration

• Experience working with DevOps stack (eg. Ship‑hats, GitLab, Nexus Repo etc).

• Experience with infrastructure change management including security groups and network ACLs.

6. Technical writing and documentation skills
