The Dhaka Power Distribution Company Limited (DPDC) has issued a fresh recruitment notice seeking qualified professionals for its Information and Communication Technology (ICT) division. The announcement presents a valuable opportunity for candidates aspiring to build a career in Bangladesh’s rapidly evolving power and digital infrastructure sector. A total of 12 vacancies will be filled across two technical positions, reflecting DPDC’s continued emphasis on strengthening its technological capabilities.
As one of the key electricity distribution utilities serving the capital, DPDC has increasingly prioritised digital transformation, including smart grid management, network monitoring, and data-driven service delivery. The latest recruitment initiative aligns with these strategic objectives, targeting individuals with strong academic backgrounds and technical proficiency.

In addition to the base salary, employees will receive a comprehensive benefits package, including house rent allowance (ranging from 50% to 60% of basic pay), festival bonuses, a Bengali New Year allowance, provident fund contributions, gratuity, and medical benefits. These provisions make the positions competitive within Bangladesh’s public sector employment landscape.

Growing Demand for ICT Expertise
The recruitment reflects a broader trend within Bangladesh’s energy sector, where utilities are investing heavily in ICT systems to improve operational efficiency, reduce system losses, and enhance customer service.
