Technical Program Manager

Role overview

DARA PEOPLE LTD. is hiring a Technical Programme Manager for a client-side data centre programme delivery environment in Singapore. This permanent role offers a monthly salary of SGD 9,350 to SGD 11,150 and has 2 openings. The position sits within a structured technical delivery setting where coordination, documentation, reporting, and governance are central to success.

You will support the Lead Client Technical Programme Manager across a major data centre product development and delivery programme. The work is coordination-intensive and requires strong accuracy, quick follow-through, and the ability to keep several technical workstreams moving at once.

This is not a site management position. Instead, it is focused on programme administration, information flow, stakeholder coordination, and delivery tracking within a client-side environment.

What you will do

• Organise meetings across product development, programme, and project teams.
• Document actions, decisions, issues, risks, and blockers from discussions in a clear and structured way.
• Keep issue registers, RFI trackers, action lists, and delivery logs up to date.
• Prepare weekly flash reports, quarterly updates, and broader status reporting.
• Build presentations, spreadsheets, work plans, and other programme materials.
• Assist with change policy workflows, bug coordination, and content packaging tasks.
• Manage documents and workflows using tools such as AODocs, Buganizer, eBuilder, or comparable systems.
• Track funding requests, contracts, invoices, purchase orders, and vendor-related paperwork.
• Check draft contracts, invoice rates, and submission completeness for accuracy.
• Support onboarding of engineering support resources.
• Act as a coordination point between client teams, vendors, consultants, and wider project stakeholders.
• Surface risks, dependencies, and blockers early so they can be addressed before they affect delivery.
• Support programme governance, commercial tracking, reporting discipline, and overall control of the workstream.

What the role requires

• A relevant degree in construction, engineering, architecture, project management, or another built-environment-related discipline.
• Experience in civil, structural, architectural, construction management, project controls, PMO, or technical programme delivery roles.
• Strong capability in reporting, documentation, and spreadsheet-based work.
• Comfort in handling trackers, actions, risks, RFIs, meetings, and stakeholder updates.
• Experience working in a structured client-side or technical project environment.
• Strong written and spoken communication skills.
• A detail-oriented approach with consistent follow-through.
• The ability to juggle multiple stakeholders, deadlines, and competing priorities.

Preferred background

• Exposure to data centre or mission-critical projects is advantageous.
• Experience in high-tech, industrial, infrastructure, or complex construction programmes is helpful.
• Background working with large technology clients or client-side delivery teams is a plus.
• Familiarity with AODocs, Buganizer, eBuilder, ACC, BIM360, or similar platforms is desirable.
• Prior involvement in PMO, project controls, design coordination, or programme governance is beneficial.
• Experience tracking contracts, invoices, purchase orders, or funding requests will be useful.

Working environment

You will be part of a major data centre programme environment, supporting client-side technical delivery across product development, governance, reporting, and stakeholder coordination. The role suits someone who values structure, process, detail, and delivery discipline rather than a purely site-based construction management track.
