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

Key Responsibilities

• You will work with teams that are modernizing applications to help study the existing application.
• You will highlight software design issues, potential opportunities for improvement, and recommend architectures that could work for the rewritten / replatformed code.
  You will interpret scan data from tools like CAST to understand the existing application.

Your future at Kyndryl

There are lots of opportunities to gain certification and qualifications on the job, and you'll continuously grow as a Cloud Hyperscaler. Many of our Infrastructure Specialists are on a path toward becoming either an Architect or Distinguished Engineer, and there are opportunities at every skill level to grow in either of these directions.

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.

Required Skills

• Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field.
• 3–5 years of experience in application consulting, implementation, or support.
• Excellent communication and client-facing skills.
• Ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.
• Experience with the CAST toolset for analyzing COBOL code.
• Proficiency developing in COBOL.
• Analyze client requirements and translate them into functional application configurations.
• Strong understanding of migration strategies including rehosting, replatforming, refactoring, and replacement.
• Ability to assess legacy systems for technical debt , integration complexity, and modernization potential.
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker, Kubernetes) and microservices architecture for modern application design.
• Ability to design and implement API-first architectures and integrate with modern SaaS platforms.
• Experience in modernizing monolithic applications into modular, scalable systems.

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with platforms like SAP, Oracle, Infor, Salesforce, or Microsoft Dynamics.
• Familiarity with cloud environments (Azure, AWS, GCP).
• Knowledge of SQL, APIs, and integration tools.
• Certification in relevant applications or methodologies (e.g., PMP, Agile, ITIL).
• Knowledge of data migration tools and ETL frameworks (e.g., Azure Data Factory, Talend, Informatica).
• Proven experience in planning and executing application migrations from legacy platforms (e.g., AS/400, mainframe, HP Tandem, on-prem ERP) to modern cloud or hybrid environments.
• Understanding of security and compliance considerations during migration (e.g., data encryption, access controls, GDPR/HIPAA).
  Strong documentation skills for migration plans, architecture diagrams, and post-migration validation.
