The following skills are advantageous: familiarity with modern JavaScript frameworks such as React, Vue, or Angular; knowledge of accessibility standards such as WCAG 2.1; familiarity with the Singapore Government Design System (SGDS); exposure to CI/CD practices including SHIP-HATS; and familiarity with Government Digital Service standards and IM8 compliance requirements.
