🏢 About Activate Interactive Pte Ltd

Activate Interactive Pte Ltd is a leading technology consultancy headquartered in Singapore with a presence in Malaysia and Indonesia. Our clients are empowered with quality, cost-effective, and impactful end-to-end application development, like mobile and web applications, and cloud technology that remove technology roadblocks and increase their business efficiency. We believe in positively impacting the lives of people around us and the environment we live in through the use of technology.

🎯 The Role

You will work in Singapore Government Agencies as part of the Government Digital Products (GDP) Team, which aims to spearhead the digital transformation of government. Our team aims to design and develop software applications that help government agencies to better serve the needs of the people of Singapore. Information Services Program (ISP) & Engagement & Case Management Program (ECMP) are platform program teams that build core government digital products that power all government agencies for their essential digital services.

✅ Key Responsibilities

• Help Build and Grow the Platform
• Design and build systems with security, reliability, and scalability in mind.
• Help design and build shared platform capabilities — templates, paved paths, and reusable modules that make onboarding new products fast and safe.
• Help existing products migrate onto the platform as it matures.
• Work with tech leads and fellow engineers to break down problems and find pragmatic solutions.
• Automate with Code
• Write infrastructure, pipelines, and monitoring as code — version-controlled, peer-reviewed, and reusable.
• Lean on automation to reduce manual, repetitive work.
• Support Delivery and Operations
• Help teams ship smoothly through CI/CD and good deployment practices.
• Provision and manage multiple environments, enabling efficient and repeatable application deployments.
• Support the team's day-to-day operations — monitoring, alerting, and incident management
• Automate routine operations such as backup, recovery, and patching.
• As the platform grows, help shape good reliability practices — observability, sensible alerting, and service-level goals.

📌 Required Qualifications

• 3–5 years of relevant experience, including hands-on work with cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud).
• Comfortable writing code, with a focus on Infrastructure as Code and other "as code" work — pipelines, configuration, and monitoring — rather than application features.
• An application development background is a plus, but not required. We care most that you can codify infrastructure and operations.
• Familiarity with Agile practices (e.g. Scrum, Extreme Programming).
• Able to write Infrastructure as Code (e.g. Terraform), and comfortable expressing pipelines, configuration, and monitoring as code.
• Familiarity with CI/CD and version control with Git.
• Basic understanding of cloud services.
• Grasp of common cloud infrastructure architecture and network traffic flow concepts.
• Understanding of cloud infrastructure and networking security.
• A scripting or programming language (e.g. Go, Python, or Bash) to support automation.
• Exposure to responsible use of AI-assisted development tooling.

⭐ Desirable Experience

• Automation-first — if it's done twice, it's worth scripting.
• Collaborative and team-oriented, with a strong sense of ownership.
• Curious, self-driven, and keen to keep learning.
• Clear communicator across technical and non-technical teammates
