AI Programme Traineeship [GRIT@Gov]

The GRaduate Industry Traineeship Programme within the Public Service (GRIT@Gov) aims to provide fresh graduates with opportunities to gain industry-relevant skills and experience that can strengthen their employability to take up full time roles in the sector. This traineeship will be hosted by the AI Platform & Capabilities Programme team under the Digital Excellence & Products Division (DXD). Areas of work and competencies you will develop: -Rapid prototyping of AI/automation for MOE workflows to build small, safe, usable tools -Evaluation & measurement through simple rubrics, pass/fail criteria, time saved/quality tracking -User discovery & iteration by shadowing officers/educators, gathering feedback, and refining solutions -Operational documentation including clear playbooks, READMEs, and how-to guides for reuse -Governance-aware delivery with responsible data handling, privacy/PII (Personally Identifiable Information) awareness, and basic security hygiene

-Build and iterate small AI-assisted tools (e.g., summarisation, triage, reporting) using notebooks or simple UIs (e.g., Streamlit/Apps Script). -Design and run lightweight evaluations including test sets, rubrics, and pass/fail criteria, and maintain a simple metrics log on time saved and quality. -Prepare sample datasets and prompt kits and maintain experiment logs and versioned artifacts. -Conduct quick user demos and walkthroughs with HQ/school stakeholders, capture feedback and translate into iteration tickets. -Produce handover materials including one-pagers, SOPs, prompt playbooks for adoption by product/operations teams.

-Entry level proficiency in programming or automation (e.g., Python/JavaScript/SQL) andwillingness to learn Large Language Model/tooling basics. -Experience in developing complete end-to-end solutions that have been successfully utilised by others (through capstone projects, internships, hackathons, open-source contributions, or personal initiatives). -Ability to design simple evaluations and communicate results clearly using basic statistics, tidy charts/tables, and concise writeups. -Strong written communication skills with the ability to transform complex inputs into clear one-pagers and READMEs. -Strong data governance awareness including privacy and PII handling, collaborative mindset and reliable follow-through on commitments.
