OVERVIEW

We exist because a perfect storm is coming, and we believe that things can be done. The digital revolution creates exponential opportunities, but while ability is normally distributed such opportunities to capitalise are not, that’s why Code for Asia exists. We are humanities majors and tech enthusiasts; most of all we are a diverse people united by a common mission to make a difference: to democratise the superpower everyone can have – coding.

MISSION

In this era of complex change and uncertainty, lifelong learning is
inevitable. Many forces have conspired to unleash a perfect storm: we
are now experiencing a skills challenge of hitherto unseen proportions
as Capital is pit against Labour in this Fourth Industrial Revolution,
automation and robotics are ensuring that manufacturing can make do with
fewer workers even as its share of national output continues to expand…

In this context, we humans have to do what is uniquely human –
constantly learn and reinvent ourselves to prosper given these new
realities. That's why Code for Asia exists to advocate and usher in this new literacy - Coding.

CULTURE

In our previous and parallel lives, the founding members of Code for
Asia Society Ltd. have taught kids in Singaporean schools, kids living
on mountaintops, migrant workers’ children, kids studying in
international schools etc. and we have found the love for games and a
desire to create to be universal human urges indeed.

Code for Asia Society Ltd. is a Company Limited by
Guarantee headquartered in Singapore. We count accounting, anthropology,
computer science, economics, environmental engineering, history,
information systems and mathematics majors in our midst.

As diverse as our majors, is the nationalities of team members in our midst. We believe in tapping into the brilliant minds and talents of different backgrounds to ensure brimming creativity.

BENEFIT

You get the opportunity to be on the frontline of this movement for a new literacy - not only in Singapore, but in other ASEAN countries as well. And this means, international exposure. You may get to rub shoulders with foreign partners, institutions, corporations, and even government agencies.

Apart from international exposure, each member's inputs are highly valued. You will get a comfortable amount of room to exercise autonomy over your scope of work, without too much cramping of your individual style! So, no more monotonous routines - leave those to automation!

Last but not least, our belief in lifestyle balance of our team members also drives us to function on a basis of flexible working hours and trust - meaning to say, we understand you have your priorities and commitments, but we also encourage you to discover your optimal efficiency mode in order to deliver your tasks at hand excellently and within deadlines.
