Job Description
At Standard Bank Group, our Insurance and Asset Management division is uniquely positioned to deliver comprehensive investment strategies and insurance solutions to clients across Africa. By harnessing cutting-edge technology, we empower our teams to provide holistic financial advice and competitive solutions at pivotal moments in our clients’ lives.
Through advanced digital platforms, data-driven insights, and innovative tools, we go beyond traditional financial services. Our pioneering digital ecosystem ensures seamless access to a wide range of offerings- whether it’s investment guidance, insurance protection, or asset management strategies- making financial planning simpler, smarter, and more connected.
For graduates, this means joining a forward-thinking environment where technology is not just an enabler, but a driver of transformation.
Our graduate programme aims to attract talent with strong technical knowledge who can become thought leaders and trusted advisors. We combine theoretical learning and practical experience, supported by rotations across the Insurance & Asset Management Technology business lifecycle. You will learn application and technology architecture processes such as analysis, design, development, testing, deployment, and also gain exposure to operations, maintenance, and support of live production environments.
The Data Engineer role is central to building and maintaining the data infrastructure that supports business insights and decision-making. The position focuses on designing, developing, and optimizing data pipelines to ensure reliable, scalable, and secure access to information across the organization.
Working within a modern technology ecosystem, the role engages with:
Big data platforms and cloud technologies (AWS, Azure)
Databases (SQL and NoSQL such as Oracle, MS SQL Server)
Data processing frameworks (Power BI, Python, Amazon Redshift, Amazon S3, MS Graph)
Automation and DevOps tools (Docker, GIT, Bitbucket, JIRA, Confluence)
Analytics and reporting tools that enable advanced insights and visualizations
By combining engineering expertise with these technologies, the role ensures that data is accessible, accurate, and actionable for a wide range of business needs.
Upon finishing the graduate program, you will possess the requisite knowledge, skills, and experience to begin your career and potentially join Insurance & Asset Management Technology, where you can contribute to the success of the overall Standard Bank Group
