Product Lead

Product Lead

Join us in playing an exciting role in building Singapore’s digital metropolis.

If you have what it takes to build Singapore’s digital future with us, we are looking for a Product Lead to join our team in DEX Digital Technologies Pte Ltd, a wholly owned subsidiary of IMDA.

What the role is:

DEX is Singapore’s trusted data-exchange digital utility— powering secure and interoperable data flows across key sectors such as Supply Chain & Logistics (SGTradex), Built Environment (SGBuildex) and more to come.

As a Product Lead, you will own the strategy, road map and end-to-end lifecycle of an assigned DEX product or digital utility platform. Working closely with Business Development, Engineering, Operations and ecosystem partners, you will translate strategic objectives and user needs into practical, scalable and reliable product solutions.

You will drive product discovery, prioritisation, delivery, launch, adoption and continuous improvement, balancing business value, technical feasibility, operational sustainability and stakeholder needs. The role requires strong cross-functional leadership and product ownership; direct people management is not a prerequisite.

The Product Lead will report to the Chief ExecutiveOfficer.

What you will be working on:

Key Responsibilities:

Product Strategy & Roadmap

• Define, develop and maintain the roadmap for the assigned product or platform, aligned with business objectives, user needs, regulatory requirements and ecosystem priorities.
• Identify opportunities for reusable and extensible capabilities that support future use cases and interoperability across platforms.

• Define product success measures and use performance data, research and stakeholder feedback to guide prioritisation and improvement.

Execution & Delivery

• Lead product discovery and translate validated needs into clear requirements, user stories and acceptance criteria for engineering teams.
• Own and prioritise the product backlog, balancing value, delivery effort, dependencies, risks and timelines.

• Partner with Engineering and Operations on release planning, issue resolution and operational readiness to deliver secure, reliable and maintainable solutions.
• Monitor product performance after launch and drive improvements in usability, adoption and outcomes.

Stakeholder & Ecosystem Alignment

• Engage internal and external stakeholders to understand challenges, validate proposed solutions and align on product priorities.
• Collaborate with partner organisations on joint initiatives, with clear responsibilities, milestones and expected outcomes.

• Communicate product direction, decisions, progress and trade-offs effectively to leadership and cross-functional teams.

Commercial & Product Governance

• Collaborate with Business Development and Finance to assess product value, adoption, cost efficiency, charging models and long-term sustainability.
• Support phased rollouts, feature controls and product governance to manage stability, security, risk and adoption readiness.

• Ensure product decisions consider customer experience, platform reliability, compliance requirements and measurable business impact.

This role offers the opportunity to shape the design and adoption of national-level data infrastructure - ideal for those who thrive on solving complex, cross-sector challenges in a fast-moving environment.

What we are looking for:

• At least 5 years of experience in product management in agile technology environments; B2B, enterprise or platform product experience is preferred.
• Proven ability to define product roadmaps, prioritise backlogs and deliver meaningful product improvements in partnership with engineering teams.

• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to use research, data and feedback to make informed decisions.
• Working understanding of cloud-hosted platforms, APIs and system integration; familiarity with DevOps practices and automation is an advantage.

• Ability to influence stakeholders, manage competing priorities and communicate clearly with technical and business audiences.
• Experience leading cross-functional product initiatives, with sound judgement and a strong sense of ownership.

• A background in Computer Science, Engineering, Information Systems or equivalent practical experience.
• Exposure to data exchange, fintech, logistics, digital platforms or blockchain-enabled solutions is advantageous.

Join us in building trusted digital infrastructure that supports Singapore’s digital economy.
