Sep 20, 20211 min read

DBS continues to add tech talent with plans to hire around 150 related positions via a virtual hackathon.

DBS will hire for around 150 technology positions through a virtual hackathon, Hack2Hire, an annual program in its fourth edition, according to a statement.

The positions will be for 14 developer and engineering roles across artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and blockchain technologies.

Successful candidates from the hackathon will be invited for a final interview during the event.

The latest expansion follows 140 job openings previously announced in May during the bank’s female-focused virtual career fair.

With Covid-19 greatly accelerating the pace of digital adoption, it is now more important than ever to ensure that our digital offerings continue to stay ahead of our customers’ needs, said DBS’ group head of big data/AI and consumer banking technology Soh Siew Choo.
