At GovTech, we design and build the digital services that millions of people in Singapore rely on every day. As a Designer, you’ll assist to set the standard for design craft and vision across some of our most complex and important products.
This is a role for a designer who can turn complexity into clarity — framing the right problems, shaping ambitious solutions, and inspiring teams to deliver services that are simple, inclusive, and trusted.
[What you will be working on]
- Lead the design vision for platforms and government products.
- Use user insights and research to frame the right problems and set product direction.
- Implement systems, standards, and patterns that bring clarity and consistency to services at scale.
- Lead by doing — prototype and model approaches for technically complex products, showing what good looks like and setting benchmarks for quality.
- Partner with engineers, product managers, and policymakers to bridge user needs with technical and business realities.
- Track measures of success to show the impact of design in the products.
[What we are looking for]
- Experience in designing and shipping digital products end-to-end — from insight to impact.
- A portfolio that shows how you’ve made complex systems simple — across enterprise platforms, workflow solutions, or other large-scale products.
- Experience shaping design and raising the quality of products.
- Experience in problem framing, research, and storytelling — turning insight into action and inspiring others around it.
- Comfort working at the edge of tech and design — fluent enough in APIs, system integrations, data-driven interfaces, and permissions models to co-create with engineers.
- Commitment to accessibility and inclusive design (WCAG), ensuring services work for everyone.
- Clear communication and storytelling skills to bring stakeholders together around a bold design vision.
