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 the Director of AI Innovation Hub at Kyndryl , you will lead a transformative initiative to embed Agentic AI across every Kyndryl service, driving innovation and measurable business impact. This strategic leadership role combines technical vision, commercial acumen, and delivery excellence. You’ll build and lead a world-class team of forward-deployed engineers, create cutting-edge demos and customer journeys, and position Kyndryl as an AI-native enterprise.

We’re not just imagining the future of AI — we’re building it. Fast.

Key Responsibilities

  • Serve as the strategic bridge between advanced AI technology and business transformation.
  • Define and execute the roadmap for Agentic AI integration across services and platforms.
  • Oversee development of intelligent agents and frameworks using Python, Azure ML, and other cutting-edge tools.
  • Champion rapid prototyping and demo cycles to accelerate adoption and client success.
  • Collaborate with sales and delivery teams to ensure AI solutions drive tangible business value.
  • Foster collaboration with academia and research communities, supervising industrial PhDs and contributing to publications.

If you're ready to embrace the power of Ai to transform our business and embark on an epic adventure, then join us at Kyndryl. Together, let's redefine what's possible and unleash your potential.

Your Future at Kyndryl

Every position at Kyndryl offers a way forward to grow your career. We have opportunities that you won’t find anywhere else, including hands-on experience, learning opportunities, and the chance to certify in all four major platforms. Whether you want to broaden your knowledge base or narrow your scope and specialize in a specific sector, you can find your opportunity here.

Who You Are

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 and Experience

  • Proven leadership in AI innovation, product development, or enterprise transformation.
  • Deep expertise in Agentic AI, GenAI, and autonomous systems.
  • Strong technical foundation: Python, distributed architectures, and cloud ML platforms (Azure, AWS, GCP).
  • Track record of building and scaling high-performing technical teams.
  • Ability to operate in a high-trust, low-hierarchy environment with strong strategic and execution skills.

Preferred Skills and Experience

  • Contributions to open-source AI frameworks.
  • Certifications in cloud ML platforms.
  • Experience in digital transformation and enterprise automation.
  • Recognised presence in academic or technical communities.

This position will be eligible for Kyndryl’s discretionary annual bonus program, based on performance and subject to the terms of Kyndryl’s applicable plans. You may also receive a comprehensive benefits package which includes medical and dental coverage, disability, retirement benefits, paid leave, and paid time off. Note: If this is a sales commission eligible role, you will be eligible to participate in a sales commission plan in lieu of the annual discretionary bonus program.

Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis.
