You will lead technical delivery across the full engineering lifecycle from discovery and architecture through to production operations, while coaching client engineering teams to build lasting capability. This is a consultancy role: you set the technical bar, de-risk decisions through prototyping and spikes, and are as energised by enabling others as by building great software yourself.
- Lead technical discovery and architecture design for greenfield and legacy modernisation - microservices, event-driven, API-first, strangler patterns.
- Champion quality engineering: comprehensive test strategy, code review, pair programming, TDD, refactoring, and technical debt management.
- Build production-quality applications with strong test coverage deploy on modern cloud platforms with CI/CD and infrastructure as code.
- Define API contracts and integration patterns run spike solutions and POCs to de-risk architecture decisions before full build.
- Proactively surface technical risks, communicate trade-offs clearly, and keep delivery momentum across engineering and business stakeholders.
- Establish monitoring and observability frameworks facilitate technical retrospectives to continuously improve engineering practice.
- Enable client engineers through pairing, tailored coaching, and feedback build end-to-end engineering capability, not dependency.
- Facilitate technical workshops - architecture reviews, mob programming, discovery sessions - across distributed and co-located teams.
Requirements
- Minimum 8+ years of full-stack engineering across the full lifecycle - architecture, development, testing, deployment, and production ops - on both greenfield and legacy modernization.
- Coaching: Proven experience enabling engineers through pairing, workshops, or mentorship across distributed and co-located teams.
- Technical: Language and framework agnostic strong in cloud platforms, CI/CD, security best practices (OWASP), AI-augmented tooling consultancy experience presenting trade-offs to non-technical stakeholders.
- Mindset: Quality-first thrives on ambiguity, energised by enabling others as much as by building pragmatic about tech debt without cutting corners.
- Familiarity with GovTech platforms (SHIP-HATS, SG Tech Stack, GCC) or prior work with Singapore Government agencies.
