    Who We Are
    --------------
    Open Government Products (OGP) is a team of engineers, designers, and product managers who build technology for the public good. We proactively identify areas where technology can help, test our prototypes with actual users, and bring our best ones to launch. This includes everything from building better frontend applications for citizens, to automating the internal operations of public agencies. We use and release open source software, keep a flat hierarchy, and bypass bureaucracy to focus on delivery. Our end goal is that through our work, Singapore becomes a model of how governments can use technology to improve the public good. You can check out the results of our latest hackathon at https://hack.gov.sg/
    Projects we have worked on include:
    Data.gov.sg \
  • • An open repository of all the Singapore Government's public data. It helps people understand the data using visualizations and articles, and provides real\-time APIs for developers to use.
    •  Parking.sg \
  • • A mobile app alternative to parking coupons. It lets users pay, extend, and refund their parking sessions just using their phones.
    • FormSG \
  • • A form builder tool for agencies to self\-service and create online forms that capture classified data, with the goal of replacing paper forms.
    •  Isomer \
  • • Isomer provides government agencies with an easy\-to\-deploy static website building and hosting service to create usable, secure and faster informational websites quickly.
    • RedeemSG \
  • • RedeemSG helps the Singapore Government to create, send and track redemptions of digital vouchers easily.
    •  PaySG \
  • • PaySG was developed to enable digital payments for government services, and was initially used for payments for COVID\-19 swab tests and Stay\-Home Notices for incoming travellers to Singapore.

    What does a Senior Product Manager do?
    ------------------------------------------
    As a Senior Product Manager, you will:
    be a tech entrepreneur for public good; identify areas where tech could have a huge impact, build prototypes to find product\-market fit, and get the right stakeholders on board
     leverage your stakeholders and team mates' knowledge of user needs, technical possibilities, and design goals to deliver strong products
    dream big, develop far\-reaching visions for your product space, and relentlessly execute until you get there
     work on meaningful projects that solve important problems in society (e.g., transportation, education, healthcare); the public sector is full of opportunities where even the simplest software can have a big impact on people’s lives
    What is it like working here?
    ---------------------------------
    Working for Public Good \
  • • We care about making an impact on public good. For the Product Management team, this means working directly on the biggest opportunities out there. This also means creating what’s best\-in\-class, and then propagating these practices widely across the government so that the Singapore Government is equipped to deliver the best impact possible to our people.
    •  Rapid Prototyping \
  • • We’re not about building too\-big\-to\-fail ideas, or getting stuck behind existing ways of doing things or mega projects. Instead of spending too much time debating ideas, we prefer to test them and iterate rapidly. This means being clear on what we’re trying to achieve, leaning forward to farm for dissent and feedback, prototyping early, and scaling what works quickly.
    • Ownership \
  • • We are not here just to keep existing processes running, but to make an impact toward public good. This means taking ownership of problems, figuring out what needs to be done, and keep going until the problems are solved, regardless of job scope or existing ways of doing things.
    •  Growth Mindset \
  • • We focus on makings better than they are today. This means that we are constantly working on new things and new areas, and reinventing the areas we are already ‘good’ at to get better. Working here means having a growth mindset as opposed to a fixed one, and leaning forward to try things, make mistakes, and learn.
    • We need someone who can
    ---------------------------
    Bring products from 0 to 1\. We’re continually launching new products across the government, so you have to be comfortable with identifying product opportunities, rapid prototyping, and quickly finding product market fit.
     Bureaucracy hack their way through government. While our team has a lot of autonomy, getting things done in government requires building critical relationships and exploiting bureaucratic vulnerabilities.
    + Be hands on with engineering and design. We’re a team of practitioners and our most effective leaders are able to get into the details.
