**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**

As a **Senior Agentic AI Architect** at Kyndryl, you are the visionary who shapes the architecture of intelligent, autonomous systems that redefine how enterprises operate.

You’ll lead the design and implementation of agentic AI solutions that go beyond traditional AI, combining reasoning, planning, autonomy, and orchestration to deliver measurable business impact.

Each day brings opportunities to architect transformative solutions, mentor engineering teams, and set the technical direction for enterprise-scale adoption of agentic AI.

You’ll engage deeply with business leaders and stakeholders—translating strategic objectives into agentic AI architectures.

Instead of just building models, you’ll define system blueprints for **multi-agent ecosystems** that can plan, reason, collaborate, and act in dynamic enterprise environments.

Your expertise will guide the integration of data, knowledge graphs, APIs, and enterprise systems into scalable, secure, and resilient architectures.

In this role, you’ll take ownership of the **end-to-end solution lifecycle** : business understanding, system design, governance, and deployment of intelligent agent frameworks that can adapt and evolve.

Leveraging advanced reasoning, **retrieval-augmented generation (RAG)** , orchestration frameworks, and LLMOps practices, you’ll architect solutions that are not only functional but **scalable, explainable, secure, and enterprise-ready** .

Beyond prototypes, you’ll ensure agentic AI becomes **embedded in enterprise processes** —enabling automation, decision augmentation, and continuous value realization.

You’ll define reference architectures, best practices, and guardrails for deploying agentic AI responsibly, ensuring compliance with enterprise policies around **security, privacy, and trust** .

As a senior leader, you’ll guide engineering teams, influence platform strategy, and partner with cloud providers and technology alliances.

If you’re ready to **set the standard for enterprise agentic AI adoption** , architecting the future of intelligent, autonomous systems at scale, join us at Kyndryl.

Together, we’ll push the boundaries of what’s possible and unlock the next generation of enterprise transformation.
