End-User Computing Engineer

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

Infrastructure Specialists at Kyndryl are project-based subject matter experts in all things infrastructure – good at providing analysis, documenting and diagraming work for hand-off, offering timely solutions, and generally “figuring it out.” This is a hands-on role where your feel for the interaction between a system and its environment will be invaluable to every one of your clients.

There are two halves to this role: First, contributing to current projects where you analyze problems and tech issues, offer solutions, and test, modify, automate, and integrate systems. And second, long-range strategic planning of IT infrastructure and operational execution. This role isn’t specific to any one platform, so you’ll need a good feel for all of them. And because of this, you’ll experience variety and growth at Kyndryl that you won’t find anywhere else.

Responsibilities

• Design, deploy, and manage end-user computing solutions, such as Windows, macOS, Linux, Microsoft 365, Microsoft Intune, Jamf Azure AD, and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (Azure Virtual Desktop and W365).

• Monitor and optimize the performance, availability, and security of the end-user computing environment, using tools such as End Point Privilege Management, Splunk, Crowdstrike and Aternity.

• Develop and maintain documentation, policies, and procedures for end-user computing services, such as installation guides, configuration standards, and best practices.

• Research and evaluate new technologies and trends in end-user computing, and recommend solutions that align with the organization's goals and requirements.

• Collaborate with other IT teams, vendors, and stakeholders to ensure the integration and compatibility of end-user computing solutions with other IT systems and services.

• Train and mentor end-user computing staff and end-users on the proper use and maintenance of end-user computing solutions.

• Manage and update both the demand and inventory, licensing, and asset management of end-user computing devices and software.

• Participate in end-user computing projects and initiatives, such as migrations, upgrades, deployments, and testing.

• Provide technical support and troubleshooting for end-user computing issues, such as hardware, software, network, and security problems.

You’ll be involved early to offer solutions, help decide whether something can be done, and identify the technical and timeline risks up front. This means dealing with both client expectations and internal challenges – in other words, there are plenty of opportunities to make a difference, and a lot of people will witness your contributions. In fact, a frequent sign of success for our Infrastructure Specialists is when clients come back to us and ask for the same person by name. That’s the kind of impact you can have

This is a project-based role where you’ll enjoy deep involvement throughout the lifespan of a project, as well as the chance to work closely with Architects, Technicians, and PMs. Whatever your current level of tech savvy or where you want your career to lead, you’ll find the right opportunities and a buddy to support your growth. Boredom? Trust us, that won’t be an issue.

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.
