The Role
Job Description
Job Description
At Kyndryl, we deploy AI innovation where it creates the greatest real-world impact. As a Forward Deployed Engineer, you will collaborate directly with customers to solve complex challenges, shaping solutions that redefine industries. You will be empowered to work at speed, supported by a global AI ecosystem, and play a pivotal role in delivering outcomes that matter. This position operates within our triad delivery model, where engineering, consulting, and product expertise come together to drive transformative results for customers.
This is not traditional consulting or pure software engineering; it is a hybrid role designed for the complexities of real-world AI deployment, with accountability for outcomes not just code.
You will blend deep engineering expertise with consultative engagement to deliver tailored solutions that drive measurable business value. Operating in dynamic environments and working closely with customer teams - often on-site - you will scope, prototype, and deploy solutions at pace. Technologies include Generative AI, Agentic AI architectures, and multi-agent ecosystems, with insights continually fed back into Kyndryl’s platforms and frameworks to accelerate future deployments.
If you are motivated by solving complex problems, excel in direct customer engagement, and aspire to shape the future of enterprise AI, this role is designed for you.
Key Responsibilities
Build autonomous agents using LLMs, planning algorithms, and decision-making frameworks.
Implement agent architectures that support autonomy, interactivity, and task completion.
Integrate agents into applications, APIs, and workflows (e.g., copilots, chatbots, automation tools).
Connect agents to external services via APIs, databases, and cloud platforms.
Tune agent behavior using feedback loops, reinforcement learning, semantic knowledge layer and user interaction.
Monitor performance and implement safety, reliability, and guardrail mechanisms.
Work cross-functionally with researchers, engineers, and product teams.
Maintain clear documentation of agent logic, design decisions, and dependencies.
Build and maintain the Enterprise Agents and Tools Registry for metadata and lifecycle management.
Implement the Agent Communication Gateway with robust security, rate limits, observability, and cost controls.
Familiarity with AI Agent orchestration patterns and workflow orchestration engines (e.g., Temporal, Airflow, etc.).
Ensure agent-level security, including authentication, authorization, and data protection.
Optimize cost, scalability, performance, and reliability of agent operations across cloud and on-prem environments.
Familiarity with knowledge graphs for agent reasoning and data integration.
Deploy and customize agentic AI platforms (e.g., LLM agents, orchestration frameworks).
Integrate AI systems with enterprise APIs, data platforms, and workflows.
Solve technical blockers across data ingestion, model deployment, and agent behavior.
Design and refine prompts to ensure clarity, compliance, and contextual accuracy.
Translate business logic into agentic workflows and task trees.
Tune agent behavior to align with real-world expectations.
Implement observability tools to ensure reliability, latency, and trustworthiness.
Maintain performance metrics and feedback loops for continuous improvement.
Build and iterate custom AI solutions tailored to customer needs, leveraging agentic AI frameworks
Own delivery end to end, from scoping to production. Working as part of the customer team to engineer and deploy production‑ready solutions that drive adoption and measurable business outcomes.
Actively contribute to the evolution of Kyndryl’s AI platforms through feedback, code contributions, and collaboration with product teams
Customer 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.
