The Role Are you ready to join the team of software engineering experts at Kyndryl? We are seeking a technically strong Software Engineering Technical Specialist - Workday Integrations to design, deliver, and support integrations across Kyndryl's enterprise HR ecosystem, with Workday as the system of record. As a Software Engineering Technical Specialist, you will develop and support integration solutions within enterprise HR domains such as Workday HCM, payroll, benefits, identity and access management, and third‑party HR platforms. You will be a technical leader-contributing deep domain expertise, guidance, and technical ownership across the integration lifecycle. At Kyndryl, effective communication and collaboration are critical. In this role, you will work closely with HR, Payroll, Benefits, Security, and external vendors to translate business and regulatory requirements into secure, reliable Workday integration solutions.

You will drive the design, development, testing, deployment, and operational support of Workday integrations, leveraging platform‑native frameworks and enterprise integration patterns.
