The Internal Security Department (ISD) confronts and addresses threats to Singapore’s internal security and stability. For over 75 years, ISD and its predecessor organisations have played a central role in countering threats such as those posed by foreign subversive elements, spies, racial and religious extremists, and terrorists. A fulfilling and rewarding career awaits those who want to join in ISD’s critical mission of keeping Singapore safe, secure and sovereign for all Singaporeans. What we offer : • Opportunities for advanced training and professional development, including attending leading overseas conferences and courses • A collaborative and dynamic work environment with a team of highly technical and motivated colleagues • A chance to work on challenging, diverse, and unique problem statements that have a direct impact on national security

Apart from an interest in building products that facilitate sense-making and a passion for furthering data analytics, candidates should be driven by our mission to make Singapore a safer home, and also enjoy working on challenging, diverse and unique problem statements. You will be supported by a team of highly technical and collaborative colleagues, and equipped with training opportunities, including attending leading conferences and courses. • Design and build highly interactive data products to drive operational excellence for various stakeholders • Develop and integrate user interfaces for GenAI capabilities (e.g. agentic tools yielding interactive data visualisations) to facilitate human-AI collaboration and accelerate operational outcomes • Architect customisable mission-critical dashboards to meet ISD’s operational and organisational objectives • Craft multi-faceted, novel visualisations and intuitive interactions to facilitate sense-making, insight generation, and the co-analysis of complex datasets • Work closely with data solutioning teams to create and implement data-UX strategies (e.g. data and visual hierarchies), enable seamless integration of data products with data sources, and bridge the gap between cutting-edge AI technology and intuitive designs • Utilise design thinking skills to gather user feedback and assist business clients with solution crafting and insight distillation via various commercial analytics products • Refining assets, artifacts and products based on feedback so as to ensure operational relevance, and continued accuracy and functionality • Implement best practices of UX design to ensure a consistent design language

• Degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Technology or equivalent competencies. • Applicants with non-technical degrees accompanied with technical portfolios (e.g. personal sites, github.com, dribbble.com etc) are welcomed to apply • Empathetic, open-minded, resourceful and meticulous professionals who are passionate about designing and building data and AI products to empower and enrich users • Able to work independently and in teams • Ability to keep the overarching objectives of the project in mind while pursuing the technical details • Competent in information management (e.g. architecting and delivery of information and visual hierarchies) and data storytelling (e.g. data-driven narratives using dashboards, custom data visualisations in webpages) • Familiar with Databases and/or associated with data-wrangling tools (e.g. Power Query, DAX, pandas, D3.js, SQL, Redis, NoSQL, neo4j) • Familiar with at least one programming language (e.g. Python, JavaScript) • Knowledge and experience with any of the following would be an advantage: - Data Analytics (e.g. Descriptive Statistics, modelling) - Web Development and UX/UI frameworks (e.g. Python 3, Svelte, jQuery, Vue.js, React.js, Flask, SvelteKit, Next.js, DOM, Shadow DOM, Tailwind CSS) - Web-based data visualisation and associated interactivity (e.g. D3.js, Chart.js, plotly.js, Python Dash) - Software-based data visualisation and dash-boarding (e.g. MS Power BI, Tableau, QlikSense, QlikView) - Geospatial-temporal data visualisation and associated interactivity (e.g. Leaflet.js, ArcGIS JS) - Network graph visualisation and associated interactivity (e.g. D3.js, Gephi, Neovis.js) - Design thinking (e.g. crafting efficient and sensible user paths) - Software development tools with GenAI (e.g. Cursor, GitHub CoPilot) • Only Singaporeans need apply
