1. Their nature of having some of their development teams in the local environment.

2. Having a more technical-focused graduate programme, hopefully getting a project manager role and leave for a better company
With regards to my skillsets, I prefer application development (both frontend and backend) as compared to data science, AI etc.

Would climbing the software engineering route (E.g. software engineer to lead software engineer) then project manager would be a good idea?

Very mediocre. I work with them. The project managers some times dont know what they are doing.

However, if your technical skills are weak. Actually it is a right fit.

FYI: I'm mainly doing software engineer now during all my internships due to my course, however I'm open to do more non-technical roles like business analyst.

You will be better off learning the ropes from end to end cycle rather than go straight to PM work.
