Philippine universal bank with 870+ branches scaling digital and compliance infrastructure
Metrobank operates the Philippines' largest retail banking network (870+ branches, 1,900+ ATMs) with a tech stack centered on Java/Spring Boot + React and container orchestration (Kubernetes, Docker). The hiring velocity is accelerating across finance (40 open roles) and engineering (13), with a junior-heavy cohort, signaling investment in regulatory compliance automation and digital product expansion rather than foundational platform overhaul — projects emphasize portfolio management systems, customer analytics, and interface design for digital banking alongside process automation and data governance.
Notable leadership hires: Learning and Development Head, Commercial Banking Head, Collections Support Head
