TOKYO -- Chonladet Khemarattana's business is growing, but his head count is struggling to keep pace. Like many fintech startups in Thailand, the digital securities brokerage he co-founded in 2017 has more than 20 open positions, ranging from software engineers to business and investment analysts.
"There's a shortage of developers, especially if you want to recruit English speakers," said Chonladet, who also leads the Thai Fintech Association. He estimated a computer science graduate from the country's top university could receive a starting salary of 50,000 to 60,000 baht ($1,480 to $1,780) per month.
