Internships with Core Strats (SG/UK), plus permanent open roles (SG/HK/PL/FR/UK/NY)

We still have several open positions for Haskell (technically Mu, our in-house variant) developers with Core Strats at Standard Chartered Bank. Since my previous post we now also have “internship” positions; these are temporary positions with a duration of up to 3 months, treated as contractors. We are especially interested in students doing an MSc or PhD in Computer Science or closely related field, with typed functional programming interest/experience. Successful applicants will have the option to work in a hybrid fashion. The conditions for these roles are:

  1. Candidates must have completed an undergraduate degree (like BSc)
  2. Work is to be done from Singapore or UK. These are employed as contractors, so we cannot sponsor work permits or relocations; candidates must already live in and have the right to work from either Singapore or the UK.

For these internship roles, you should send your CV and motivation letter directly to corestratsjobs@sc.com. Feel free to also use that email address if you have any questions about these positions (internships or not).

Separately, we still have full-time positions open, and are now also looking for candidates to work in Hong Kong. To apply for these roles, please go to:

These links have a tendency to become inactive; you can ping me here or via corestratsjobs@sc.com and I’ll get them reopened again if we still have vacancies.

You can learn more about our team and what we do by reading our experience report “Functional Programming in Financial Markets” presented at ICFP last year: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3674633. There’s also a video recording of the talk: https://www.youtube.com/live/PaUfiXDZiqw?t=27607s

Hi there! For the role in HK, are you hiring any junior devs at all? Thanks!

The HK role is what I’d call “mid-level”, so some demonstrated typed FP industrial (or relevant academical) experience is required.

Ah got it. So it’s probably not for me then haha. Thanks anyway!

I got rejected after forth interview from six - I guess manager didn’t like me cause I told him that his valued behaviour test (which is mostly consist of questions in a typical corporate language and takes 35 minutes to complete) is useless. At the end, no feedback has been provided (well, just got an answer in the same corporate language which doesn’t really say anything).

One week later I got an invitation to apply again. I guess due their name they have many candidates every year and they in a position to filter out only the most preferrable ones.
