This year, DBS will be focusing its outreach efforts on five engineering roles, namely Engineering Lead; Solution Architect; ReactJS Developer; Full Stack Developer; and Software Development Engineering in Test.
Soh Siew Choo, Group Head of Big Data/AI and Consumer Banking Technology at DBS shared that the overwhelming response to the first edition of DBS Women in Tech had shattered the myth that there is a limited pipeline of women for technology roles.

This year, DBS was the only Asean company to be listed in the index’s top global quartile, attesting to the bank’s achievements in building a respectful, diverse and inclusive culture.
