The AI Solutions division within Wealth Management IT drives the adoption and industrialization of Artificial Intelligence across Wealth Management IT, with a specific focus on delivering secure, governed and value-driven AI capabilities for IT teams.

The AI for IT squad focuses on embedding AI into the daily work of IT teams in order to improve software delivery, operational resilience, cyber risk management and engineering productivity. The ambition is to progressively move from isolated assistants and copilots toward governed AI capabilities directly embedded into IT processes across three core domains: Build, Run and Secure.

We are looking for a hands-on and highly motivated Data Scientist / AI Expert to join the AI for IT squad in Singapore.

The role will contribute to the design, evaluation, prototyping, implementation and industrialization of AI solutions dedicated to IT transformation. The candidate will work on strategic AI for IT initiatives covering developer productivity, AI-assisted production operations, vulnerability analysis and remediation, and the continued evolution of specialized AI assistants and agents deployed within the Wealth Management IT ecosystem.

The ideal candidate combines strong data science and AI engineering skills with a pragmatic delivery mindset. The role is not limited to research or experimentation: the objective is to build concrete, secure and usable AI solutions that can be adopted by IT teams in their day-to-day activities.
