responsibilities :
Are you a mastermind when it comes to software architecture and design? Do you have a passion for developing innovative software solutions that are ahead of the curve? If so, we have the perfect role for you.
As an Application/Software Architect, youll be responsible for designing cutting-edge software frameworks, systems, and products that will set the standard for the industry. Youll use your extensive technical knowledge to conceive system interfaces and business application prototypes, while also identifying and resolving any framework design weaknesses.
Your expertise in designing major aspects of the architecture of an application, including components such as user interface, middleware, and infrastructure, will be put to use as you create and maintain documentation surrounding the software architecture, application design processes, component integration, testing guidelines, and other key elements.
As a Mainframe Application Modernisation Architect in Kyndryl’s Consulting team, you will act as a trusted advisor to our clients, guiding them through the full journey of mainframe application transformation/modernization. You will be responsible for assessing, designing, and leading modernization initiatives that align with both business and technical requirements, leveraging hybrid and cloud-native technologies. This role combines deep technical expertise, solution architecture, and client-facing consulting skills in a dynamic international environment.
Key Responsibilities:
Lead end-to-end modernization projects of Mainframe applications — from assessment and roadmap definition to architecture design, migration, and implementation (re-platforming, refactoring, re-architecting).
Define modernization strategies, including value cases, TCO assessments, and future-state roadmaps.
Design and deliver integration of mainframe technologies (COBOL, PL/I, z/OS, CICS, DB2, JCL, etc.) with cloud and microservices environments (AWS Mainframe Modernization, Azure Skytap, Kubernetes, OpenShift, containers).
Translate business requirements into robust, scalable technology solutions.
Collaborate with cross-functional technical teams, architects, and client stakeholders.
