Singapore telco with infrastructure, managed services, and enterprise AI/cybersecurity solutions
StarHub operates a full-stack telecom business—mobile, fixed-line, fiber, and content—serving consumers and enterprises across Singapore and Malaysia. The tech stack reveals a mature hybrid infrastructure: AWS-native cloud (ECS, EKS, Kubernetes) paired with legacy SAP and Netezza systems being phased out, plus active adoption of infrastructure-as-code (Terraform, Argo CD) and communications APIs (CPaaS). Hiring velocity is decelerating but skews senior and engineering-heavy, with visible focus on security (proactive threat hunting, incident response), network modernization, and telco-grade automation—consistent with their stated push into IoT, AI, and cybersecurity for corporate clients.
Notable leadership hires: Category Lead, Solution Sales Director, Technical Lead People Systems, Technical Program Management Lead
