Regional banking network with 600+ branches across MENA and key financial centers
Arab Bank operates a large-scale regional banking infrastructure spanning 5,001–10,000 employees across 600+ branches in the Middle East, North Africa, and major financial hubs. The tech stack reveals a hybrid infrastructure—legacy systems (AS/400, Oracle) running alongside modern cloud (AWS, Azure, GCP) and open-source tools (Python, MongoDB, Linux)—typical of banks mid-modernization. Active hiring is sales-led (10 open roles) with significant ops and finance demand, while project work centers on cybersecurity hardening (ransomware protection, disaster recovery) and platform reliability (backup cost optimization, monitoring KPIs).
Arab Bank is the largest banking network in the Arab world, established in 1930 and headquartered in Amman, Jordan. The bank operates over 600 branches across MENA and maintains presence in London, Dubai, Singapore, Geneva, Paris, Sydney, and Bahrain. It serves three primary segments: Consumer Banking (retail), Corporate and Institutional Banking, and Treasury services. Current expansion targets Qatar, Egypt, UAE, and Morocco, with active hiring across sales, finance, and operations to support growth in these markets.
Arab Bank runs Microsoft Office, Oracle, and AS/400 for core systems, with MongoDB and Python for modern workloads. Cloud infrastructure spans AWS, Azure, and GCP. Backup tooling includes Veeam, Commvault, and NetBackup; monitoring uses Power BI and custom Jira plugins.
Current projects focus on cybersecurity (ransomware protection strategy, disaster recovery drills), infrastructure optimization (capacity planning, hardware refresh cycles, backup cost reduction), and platform tooling (Jira workflow customization, monitoring KPI design).
