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.\nThe Role\nYour role\nThe Forward Deployed Engineer (FDE) is a delivery-first role for early career engineers who want to work where AI systems meet real enterprise complexity.\nAs an FDE, you will embed directly with customer delivery teams to help build, prototype, and deploy AI-enabled solutions in production environments. This is not a traditional software engineering role and not classic consulting. It is a hybrid role designed for real-world AI deployment, where success is measured by outcomes and production scaled solutions, not experiments.\nYou will deliver defined technical components under guidance from senior engineers, while developing consulting fundamentals through direct customer exposure. You will work with modern AI development tools, generative and agentic AI architectures, and enterprise cloud platforms, learning how to translate technical work into customer value.\nWhat you will do\nCustomer Engagement & Solution Integrity: Partner with customers to understand business challenges and translate them into high-quality, fit-for-purpose technical solutions, prioritising the right outcome over the fastest one\nRapid Prototyping: Build and iterate custom AI solutions tailored to customer needs, leveraging agentic AI frameworks\nOwnership, Deployment & Partnership: Own delivery end to end, from scoping to production. Work as part of the customer team to engineer and deploy production-ready solutions that drive adoption and measurable business outcomes.\nOptimization: Troubleshoot and enhance system performance, scalability, and reliability\nField Intelligence: Systematically capture deployment learnings, document best practices, and proactively share insights to inform enhancements to Kyndryl’s core platforms and frameworks\nContinuous Learning: Adapt quickly to emerging technologies and evolving customer requirements by engaging in ongoing professional development\nPlatform Contribution: Actively contribute to the evolution of Kyndryl’s AI platforms through feedback, code contributions, and collaboration with product teams\nKyndryl currently does not require employees to be fully vaccinated against COVID-19, however, if you are hired to work at a client, customer, or partner location, you may be required to show proof of vaccinationto align with their respective COVID-19 vaccinationpolicies. Those who believe they are eligible may apply for a medical or religious accommodation prior to the start of employment.\nWho You Are\nRequired skills and experience\nProgramming Proficiency: Demonstrable expertise in Python, (or another modern language such as C#, Node.js or TypeScript); experience working with AI/ML frameworks like TensorFlow or PyTorch is a plus\nSoftware Engineering: Solid grasp of the software delivery lifecycle, version control (Git & GitHub), and data engineering tools such as Pandas and Spark\nCloud & Distributed Systems: Experience with cloud AI platforms (AWS, Azure, Google AI) and distributed computing architectures Preferred skills and experience\nOpen-Source Ecosystems: Familiarity with community-driven AI tools and libraries, including Hugging Face and relevant repositories\nT-shaped Profile: Deep technical expertise in one or two domains, with broad understanding across AI/ML, cloud, and consulting\nAgentic AI Systems: Experience designing, building, or integrating multi-agent systems and orchestration frameworks (e.g., LangGraph, Semantic Kernel, Agent Framework, AutoGen, CrewAI), including the development of agent protocols and coordination mechanisms\nRetrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) & Knowledge Systems: Practical knowledge of deploying RAG architectures and integrating structured and unstructured knowledge sources into AI solutions\nPerformance & Security: Knowledge of system-level optimisation and security best practices for scalable AI systems\nBusiness Acumen: Ability to translate business requirements into technical solutions and communicate technical value to diverse stakeholders, including executive audiences\nFlexibility: Willingness to travel and work on customer premises as required\nEducation: Degree-level qualification in Computer Science, Informatics, Data Science, Engineering, or a closely related discipline - or equivalent professional experience\nBased in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex (or ready to relocate immediately) with a hybrid schedule of 3 days onsite per week at the Frisco, TX\nThe compensation range for the position in the U.S. is $73,440 to $139,680 based on a full-time schedule.\nYour actual compensation may vary depending on your geography, job-related skills and experience.
