Who We Are:
The GovTech Anti Scam Products (GASP) team’s mission is to build tech solutions to detect, disrupt and deter scammers at scale. The work spans data infrastructure, developing and deploying AI & ML to scale proactive detection, API connections to partners, as well as front-end systems for enforcement agencies.
What it is like working here:
Your job will be to bring your experience, technical expertise, and capability in solving abstract problems to tackling scams using tech.
Sometimes this means coding new systems from scratch. Other times this means using the best solutions the development community has to offer. We use cloud services, open source software, and commodity hardware as much as possible. These often include, but are not limited to: GitHub, AWS, React Native, and MongoDB, amongst others. Knowing what to build and what to reuse lets us avoid wasting time on solved problems and focus on delivering actual value.
As software engineer, you will
Build prototypes to demonstrate technological opportunities
Design system architectures
Write production quality code
Manage deployments to cloud infrastructure
Maintain systems to a high level of reliability
More senior software engineers will also be expected to:
Establish best practices for developer operations
Provide technical leadership across multiple product teams
Share your expertise and mentor other engineers
Help with recruiting
What we are looking for:
Must have
- Python, JavaScript and/or Scala
- Experience working with CI/CD setups
- Strong knowledge of algorithms and database structures
Preferred
- Experience in AWS Cloud
- Experience building high scale, low latency APIs & deploying scaled AI / ML solutions
- Experience with data intensive frameworks & data warehousing solutions (e.g. presto, spark, glue), bonus if you’re familiar with graph data structures
- Understanding of event driven architectures involving kafka, bonus if you’re familiar with Flink!
We're here to improve how we live as a society through what we can offer as a government. Because our team focuses on pushing new initiatives, you will also have to:
- Identify potential projects that improve the public good
- Design novel systems that work around bureaucratic constraints
- Advocate and explain these technical ideas to other government agencies
You're not just here to write code, but also to figure out what we should be building and how we should build it. You will work on meaningful projects to reduce scams and make a big impact on people’s lives.
