What You’ll Do
As a Senior Product Manager, you will build and evolve platforms that support teacher professional learning across Singapore’s education system — from early-stage AI-native learning experiences to large-scale platforms used by thousands of educators. You will work across products at different stages of maturity — from exploratory pilots (e.g. AI-enabled learning tools, knowledge systems) to core platforms embedded in daily teacher workflows (e.g. LMS, CMS, knowledge repositories).
You will:
Co-own the Vision and Roadmap
Shape the long-term direction of teacher professional learning platforms — from content discovery and knowledge management to collaborative learning and classroom practice improvement.Work closely with MOE HQ divisions, schools, and partner agencies to:
- Define success in terms of teacher growth, classroom impact, and time saved
- Align product direction with Academy of Singapore Teachers and professional learning outcomes for educators
- Translate emerging AI capabilities into practical, scalable educator tools
Turn Learning into Impact
Identify the real problems beneath the brief — especially those tied to:
- Time-to-feedback for teachers
- Discoverability of high-quality teaching resources
- Translation of learning into classroom practice
For early-stage products:
- Prototype AI-enabled learning experiences (e.g. semantic search, RAG copilots, video annotation)
- Validate what actually improves teacher learning and behaviour change
For mature platforms:
- Improve end-to-end educator journeys (e.g. search → learn → apply → reflect) R
- Reduce friction in workflows (e.g. content discovery, compliance learning, peer sharing)
- Scale systems across schools and divisions
Build Alignment Across a Complex System
Work across:
- Policy (HQ divisions, curriculum planners)
- Operations (schools, teacher networks, AST)
- Engineering & design teams
- Senior leadership (DDX, CIO, etc.)
Bring clarity to ambiguous problem spaces so that:
- Teacher needs, policy goals, and technical constraints align
- Cross-agency initiatives (e.g. LEARN, MOE’s learning system) move toward shared outcomes, not fragmented systems
Shape the Future of Teacher Learning
Help define what “good” looks like for AI-enabled professional learning:
- Push for evidence-based product decisions (e.g. measuring reduction in search time, improvement in learning uptake)
- Introduce new paradigms (e.g. just-in-time learning, knowledge graphs, AI copilots for teaching)
- Raise the bar on usability, relevance, and real classroom impact
We Need Someone Who Can
Build Products That Improve Teaching Practice
Design systems that go beyond content delivery to:
- Help teachers find the right knowledge quickly
- Support application in classroom contexts
- Enable collaborative learning and reflection at scale
Operate Across 0→1 and 1→100
- Explore and validate new ideas (e.g. AI copilots, semantic search, adaptive learning systems)
- Strengthen and scale existing platforms used by thousands of educators
- Move fluidly between experimentation and system-level rollout
Navigate Government Complexity
- Work across multiple stakeholders with competing priorities
- Balance policy constraints, procurement realities, and product principles
- Find creative ways to move forward without losing momentum
Communicate and Influence
- Articulate a clear product vision for teacher learning
- Align stakeholders around shared outcomes (not just features)
- Influence decisions across HQ, schools, and partner agencies
Be Hands-On and Execution-Driven
- Work closely with engineers and designers to ship real products
- Prototype solutions independently when needed (e.g. using AI tools, lightweight stacks)
- Drive projects from idea → pilot → scale
You Will Likely Be Someone Who Has
- 5–8+ years of product management or equivalent experience
- Experience building user-facing platforms where experience quality matters
- Experience with AI/LLM-enabled products, search systems, or knowledge platforms (strong plus)
- Strong ability to operate in ambiguous, evolving problem spaces
- Experience working with multiple stakeholders in complex organisations
Public sector or education experience is not required — but strong candidates can quickly
understand:
- Teacher workflows and constraints
- The importance of classroom impact, not just platform usage
