About the Business Area

Our technology teams sit within our Group Chief Information Office (GCIO), building the digital platforms, systems, and products our customers and colleagues use every day, keeping assets and data secure, and delivering exceptional digital experiences.

Who you are

You’re curious, collaborative and motivated by solving real problems with technology. What matters most here isn’t having everything figured out already — it’s your mindset, your willingness to learn and how you work with others. You could be a great fit if you enjoy breaking down complex challenges, thinking logically and building high-quality solutions. You care about doing things well, take pride in your work and want to keep improving. You’re comfortable sharing ideas, listening to different perspectives and working with people across teams, cultures and locations. Technology moves fast, and that excites you rather than puts you off. If you’re eager to grow your technical skills, explore new tools and help build solutions that make a real difference at scale, this could be the right place for you.

What you'll do

• Work with engineers and other technology colleagues on projects that support HSBC’s digital-first approach.
• Depending on your team, you could help develop new products and services, improve existing ones, and support software that keeps the business moving.
• Meet engineers, architects and colleagues across the wider business, and get hands-on with coding frameworks, programming languages, AI tools and modern ways of working across development and operations.
• Help monitor performance, investigate technical issues and suggest improvements.
• Participate in structured assessments aligned to securing a graduate role, demonstrating how you think, collaborate and deliver through tasks such as project work, presentations, interviews or skills-based evaluations.

What you'll learn

• Build your engineering foundation through a mix of technical training, skills development and practical learning.
