Senior / Lead Product Manager

Who we are

Open Government Products is a startup team on a mission to build a better world. We solve real problems for the common good - our products have prevented scams, saved lives, and distributed millions of dollars to the aged and vulnerable. We keep a flat hierarchy and value high initiative and autonomy, with over 70% of our products starting as ground-up initiatives. We open source most of our work so that other countries and communities can benefit from it. 

Products we have built include:

Covid-19 Vaccination System and Health Appointment System - Book vaccine appointments at clinics nationwide

Data.gov.sg - Open data repository with real-time APIs 

Parking app - Pay for parking and extend your time-slot in seconds

FormSG - Form manager that has eliminated most paper forms in government, with pioneered zero-knowledge features

Isomer - Static government websites at a fraction (10%) of the cost

What do our product managers do?

A product manager at OGP is a tech entrepreneur for the public good. We identify areas where tech could have a big impact, build prototypes to find product-market fit, and get the right stakeholders on board. We use their knowledge of user needs, technical possibilities and design goals to deliver strong product. We dream big, developing far-reaching visions for their product space, and relentlessly execute until they get there.

You will work on meaningful projects that solve important problems in society, from transportation, to education, to healthcare. The public sector is full of opportunities where even the simplest software can have a big impact on people’s lives. Rather than boosting the top line, we're here to improve how we live as a society starting with what we can offer in the Singapore government.
