Job Description
IMDA is spearheading Singapore’s drive to be a world leading Digital Economy. We want to empower our companies and workforce with digital technologies and enable Singapore to be a leading Digital Economy globally.
The Business Technology Group (BTG) within IMDA aims to introduce innovative emerging technology assets to our local industry to catalyse digital transformation. We closely collaborate with the industry for qualification, prototyping, and productisation. We are looking for a Senior Manager / Assistant Director (Product Lead) to helm the end-to-end success of our product portfolio. In this role, you will lead the in-house product team to work across functional areas to oversee products from conceptualisation to launch.
If you are passionate about shaping and delivering products in AI, Digital trust, and Communications technologies, we welcome you to join us on our journey as we architect Singapore’s digital future!
This role requires a strong technical foundation. While you are not expected to develop code for production environments, you will need to be able to code and configure infrastructure, execute git commands, and understand system architecture, UI/UX, and how to build good software.
In this role, you will:
• Develop, lead, and execute the product strategy in alignment with the organisation’s mission. You will be the key representative for product strategy in executive stakeholder meetings and lead efforts to galvanise support for your strategy and products portfolio.
• Lead a team of product managers to oversee product development from conceptualisation to launch, ensuring timely delivery and adherence to quality standards throughout the process.
• Own the success metrics of your portfolio by monitoring product performance and managing team resources to achieve the outcomes envisioned by the product strategy.
• Lead efforts to identify technology adoption gaps, explore new market segments, and assess new product opportunities. Design and sustain go-to-market strategies, and negotiate partnership agreements (e.g., with research institutes, industry) to drive product success.
• Build the product practice – fostering a culture of collegiality, seamless collaboration and joint accountability between product, business, and engineering teams.
• Mentor and lead your team of product managers to develop their professional competencies, hone their business and tech acumen, and build strong camaraderie within the team.
About you
• You have 10+ years shaping products in one or more of the following technology areas: data and AI, robotics, communications tech, or blockchain.
• You have a strong technology background, which is coupled with an astute sense of how technology will impact businesses and government service delivery.
• You can communicate persuasively and confidently to senior stakeholders and can read a room effectively to calibrate your messaging. You code-switch effortlessly between talking business and talking technology.
• You are well versed with agile methodologies, know how to maintain product roadmap, and how to articulate and manage engineering and business trade-offs.
• You understand market dynamics, possess a strong analytical and problem-solving ability, and deftly pivot between making data-driven decisions and making decisions amid ambiguity.
• You have demonstrated experience building and nurturing a team. You can lead and coach effectively, manage resource prioritisation, and guide your team towards success.
