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

Are you ready to take your leadership skills to the next level and make a significant impact through technological innovation and service delivery excellence? As a Squad Leader, you'll drive a team of highly skilled and motivated professionals, entrusted with delivering state-of-the-art solutions and pioneering initiatives that will chart the future of Kyndryl.

Your role as a Squad Leader extends beyond traditional leadership. You'll be the go-to-expert in your technology and service domain – guiding, motivating, and mentoring your squad to ensure the seamless delivery of services and initiatives. Collaborating closely with cross-functional teams is paramount to achieving our business objectives and transforming requirements into strategic opportunities.

You will be at the forefront of service quality – dedicated to ensuring that your team not only meets but exceeds customer expectations while adhering to relevant Service Level Agreements (SLAs). Managing escalations, engaging with customers, optimizing workflows and priorities, and efficiently handling backlogs will be second nature to you. You'll run Agile ceremonies – driving improvement in our delivery processes. Your determination to enhance squad outcomes is the catalyst for success.

As a Squad Leader, you'll be the bridge between business requirements and innovative solutions. Through close collaboration with stakeholders, you'll gain profound insights into their needs and translate them into strategies that push the boundaries of what's achievable. You will be the champion for continuous improvement, and your end-to-end ownership of your technology and service domain will empower you to transform business requirements into the opportunities that drives Kyndryl forward.

This role is instrumental in how we deliver exceptional services to our customers – building their trust and confidence in our capabilities. Your work will not only impact the way we do business but also redefine how we deliver excellence in technology services. If you're ready to lead from the front, drive innovation, and shape the future of technology service delivery, this role is your gateway to a rewarding and impactful career journey with us.
