That includes founder development, research translation, venture creation, industry partnerships and access to capital and global networks. The parts of NUSX do different things, but we share a common ambition: help more NUS talent, research and ideas find a path to use and scale. NUSX was known as NUS Enterprise until September 2026.\nRole Purpose\nThe AI Engineering Lead will provide technical leadership for ETP’s AI automation, data integration, workflow automation and digital platform capabilities. The role will lead the technical direction and delivery discipline for AI Engineers and related digital workstreams, ensuring that automation solutions are scalable, secure, maintainable and aligned with ETP’s operating needs.\nThe role is expected to help ETP move towards a more efficient operating model where staff spend less time on manual administration, repetitive reconciliation and fragmented reporting, and more time on higher-impact work. This role leads AI engineering architecture and delivery across data integration, workflow automation, AI agents and platform capabilities.\nKey Responsibilities\n1. Technical Architecture and Solution Design\nDefine the technical architecture for AI automation, workflow automation, data integration and platform capabilities across ETP.\nDetermine how the data lake, AI inference layer, vector database, workflow automation tools, SaaS platforms and ETP Hub should connect.\nTranslate business requirements and operational pain points into technical solution designs, delivery plans and prioritised build tasks.\nEnsure technical solutions are secure, maintainable, reusable and aligned with ETP’s longer-term digital operating model.\n2. AI Engineering Delivery Leadership\nLead the AI Engineers in delivering AI agents, automation workflows, data pipelines, reporting automation and integration components.\nReview technical outputs including scripts, workflows, data logic, API integrations, AI-assisted tools and deployment approaches.\nSet delivery standards for code quality, testing, documentation, release readiness and post-launch sustainment.\nSupport the use of AI coding tools to accelerate development while ensuring appropriate technical review and quality control.\n3. Data, AI and Workflow Automation\nProvide technical oversight for data cleanup, data transformation, reconciliation logic, reporting automation and AI-enabled reporting.\nGuide the development of AI inference-layer capabilities for extraction, classification, validation, summarisation and report generation.\nLead workflow automation approaches using tools such as n8n and related integration platforms.\nGuide AI-enabled features within ETP Hub, including search, knowledge retrieval, agent workflows and user-facing automation.\n4. Platform, SaaS and Infrastructure Integration\nEnsure automation solutions integrate properly with ETP’s platforms, SaaS applications, workflow tools, data sources and infrastructure.\nWork with platform, SaaS and infrastructure workstreams to align technical dependencies, implementation sequencing and support arrangements.\nAssess vendor and professional services proposals for technical soundness, scalability, maintainability and handover readiness.\nSurface risks, constraints and trade-offs early, including security, data access, infrastructure, integration and sustainment considerations.\n5. Governance, Documentation and Sustainment\nEstablish technical standards for automation workflows, data pipelines, scripts, AI agents, prompts, integrations and reusable components.\nEnsure documentation of architecture, data flows, business rules, workflow logic, prompts, APIs, dependencies and support arrangements.\nPut in place testing, monitoring and issue-resolution processes for deployed automation and AI-enabled tools.\nDrive continuous improvement based on user feedback, adoption, operational performance and changing business needs.\nPlease be informed that only shortlisted candidates will be notified.\nRequirements\nDegree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Data Science, Information Systems, Engineering or a related technical discipline; equivalent practical experience may be considered.\nTypically 8 or more years of relevant experience in software engineering, AI engineering, data engineering, platform integration or digital solution delivery.\nAt least 3 years of experience leading technical delivery, solution architecture, engineering teams or cross-functional automation workstreams.\nStrong hands-on understanding of Python or similar languages, APIs, data pipelines, system integration and deployment practices.\nPractical experience with AI agents, LLM workflows, RAG, embeddings, vector databases, knowledge retrieval or AI inference-layer design.\nExperience with workflow automation tools such as n8n, Airflow, Zapier, Make or similar platforms.\nAbility to guide engineers, review technical work, challenge vendors, make architecture decisions and translate business problems into scalable technical solutions.\nStrong communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to explain technical trade-offs clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.\nGood to Have\nExperience with AI-assisted development tools such as Claude Code, Cursor, GitHub Copilot or similar tools.\nExperience with Google Workspace, Monday.com, Slack, Xero, Workable or similar SaaS applications.\nExperience building internal automation platforms, knowledge search tools, dashboards or operational applications.\nFamiliarity with local or cloud-based AI infrastructure, data vectoring, RAG pipelines and knowledge retrieval systems.\nExperience in corporate services, operations, grants, finance, HR, administration or similar internal operating environments.\nJob Type: 2-year Contract\nLocation: Kent Ridge Campus\nOrganization: NUSX\nDepartment : Administration\nJob requisition ID :
