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.

Boredom?

Trust us, that won't be an issue.

At Kyndryl we support all major cloud platforms, so you'll get the chance to use everything you know - and then some.

You'll also become expert at knowing when and how to call on other SMEs outside your wheelhouse.

Thinking your way around pre-existing limitations will grow your creativity and flexibility.

You'll learn a lot here, and if you want to work toward certifications there are plenty of opportunities.The rewards for all this are many.

You'll get to influence, create, and deliver something from start to finish.

You will have the power to delight our clients.

Your future at Kyndryl
This role opens the door to many career paths, both vertical and horizontal, and there may be opportunity to travel.

It's a great chance for database administrators or other techs to break into the cloud.

It's also a solid path to become enterprise or chief architect or a distinguished engineer! Whatever you see for yourself, you'll find the opportunity here.

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.
