CIOO Labs is a team of inter-disciplinary engineers & designers that aims to support the productivity of GovTech officers, as well as GovTech’s strategic transformation initiatives. As a model for what future CIO Teams can look like, we seek to be a team where individuals go beyond their main engineering or design scope, and also take ownership of the product as a whole to see it through to success. We operate in a lean and agile manner to rapidly prototype and solve problems in a quick and efficient manner. As a team working on internal problems within GovTech, we are working on a variety of new and exciting products aiming to improve productivity and bring joy to the employee experience of GovTech officers.
