Rationalisation of Frontend & Backend Engineering Competencies with DSAI

Context

  • Started in Sept 2022 when given the guidance to identify commonalities and rationalise similar competencies amongst different functional clusters.
  • DSAI's Frontend & Backend Programming might be similar to Apps Dev SWE's Frontend Engineering and Backend Engineering.
  • Jie Sheng from ACE and Weiguang from DSAID begin working on the rationalisation.

Approach

  • Similarties and differences are identified.
  • DSAI's Frontend Engineering competency include data visualisation and charting descriptors.
  • DSAI's Backend Engineering competency include data pipelining.
  • The agreed approach is to include data science descriptors to the current Apps Dev competencies.
  • Assessment criteria will be defined by both parties so that there will be a common yardstick to assess staff in both DSAID and Apps Dev.

Endorsed

  • Weiguang presented to CDMC on 06 Feb 2023 and was approved in the same meeting.
  • Incorporated additional descriptors to the current Apps Dev Frontend Engineering and Backend Engineering competencies, to include DSAI requirements.
  • For DSAI-specific and GDS-specific projects/nuances, it will be contextualised in the assessment critieria.
  • Rationalised competencies will be owned by Apps Dev, with Alvina (DSAI) as the Co-Chapter Lead for Software Engineer job role, assessing DSAI officers.
  • Co-Chapter Leads will align in terms of the assessment criteria and assessment of staff, across GDS and DSAI to ensure porosity.
