SINGAPORE, July 28, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — As global tech companies implement large-scale workforce reductions in Singapore. Local HR-tech startup Fuku AI is addressing the employment gap with its AI recruitment platform designed to streamline hiring and support workforce realignment. With the vast number of tech jobs lost in Singapore this year, the nation’s technology sector is undergoing a critical transformation.
According to a Channel News Asia report, this wave of tech layoffs in Singapore reflects a broader global trend: companies are pivoting toward AI and automation to boost efficiency, phasing out redundant roles. While the short-term impact has disrupted careers, long-term demand for digitally skilled professionals remains strong.
These changes signal a recalibration across the tech industry, where hiring priorities are shifting toward AI-focused roles, data science, cybersecurity, and cloud computing.
Despite the disruption, Singapore remains a strategic hub for tech talent. Public and private sector employers are continuing to recruit in high-growth areas, as highlighted by recent job market insights from The Straits Times. However, with increasing pressure to hire efficiently, many employers are rethinking their approach to recruitment.
This is where Fuku AI’s automated recruitment platform plays a pivotal role. Using AI-driven hiring solutions, Fuku AI helps companies fill critical roles faster through:
- AI talent mapping
- AI-generated job-role matching
- Automated candidate outreach
- Streamlined candidate screening and evaluation
Companies using the platform report a reduction in recruitment cycles from weeks to days, with up to 80% shorter time-to-hire.
“Our AI-recruitment platform automates sourcing, screening, outreach—even interview evaluation—matching retrenched professionals and passive talent in under a minute,” said Kevin Gao, Founder and CEO of Fuku AI. “We’re helping companies find the right people, right now—without the delays of traditional hiring methods.”
Fuku AI is gaining traction as a cost-effective alternative to legacy hiring platforms, appealing to both SMEs and larger enterprises seeking AI in HR technologies to manage high-volume or specialized hiring needs.
Despite current disruptions in the job market, Fuku AI positions itself as a vital force in accelerating employment recovery. The platform’s mission is to support both displaced professionals and growing companies—delivering future-ready hiring tools for a future-ready workforce.
