The role typically requires a degree in computer science, information technology, engineering, or a related discipline, together with strong experience in data engineering. Candidates should be comfortable with SQL, Python or Java, data modelling, ETL/ELT pipelines, cloud platforms, distributed processing tools, and databases. Experience with technologies such as Spark, Kafka, Airflow, Hadoop, or modern data warehouses is advantageous. The successful candidate is expected to design reliable and scalable data solutions, maintain data quality and security, work closely with analysts and business teams, and contribute to technical standards and delivery planning. As an AVP, the role also involves mentoring colleagues, managing stakeholders, communicating clearly, and taking ownership of projects from design through production support.

Singapore is a compact, well-connected island with strong opportunities in banking, fintech, technology, data, healthcare, logistics, and professional services. English is widely used at work, while Mandarin, Malay, and Tamil are also official languages. The culture is multicultural, organised, and generally fast-paced, with high expectations for professionalism and punctuality. Public transport is efficient, healthcare is well regarded, and the city offers excellent food, shopping, parks, and international communities. Housing is the main cost concern; renting a room is usually more affordable than leasing an entire apartment. Foreign professionals generally need employer-sponsored permission, such as an Employment Pass or S Pass, with eligibility depending on salary, qualifications, experience, and government assessment. New arrivals should secure an offer, confirm pass requirements, budget for rent and deposits, and arrange suitable accommodation before relocating.
