Get to Know the Team

Grabber Technology Solutions (GTS) strives to be a technology leader providing predictive and seamless experiences to all Grab employees (Grabbers). Our diverse team of technology practitioners is dedicated to delivering personalised IT experiences. We are looking for individuals who share our customer-centric values to join our growing team.

Get to Know the Role

You will lead Singapore's shift from a run-and-maintain IT team to an automation- and AI-first one — owning how IT runs today while rebuilding how it runs tomorrow.

As Country IT & Automation Manager, you own End-user Computing (EUC) operations for Grab Singapore: the service desk, endpoint fleet, office IT, and IT service management. You keep the operation reliable, and you make it better — replacing manual, repetitive workflows with automation, self-service, and purpose-built tools.

You are as comfortable resolving an escalation as prototyping a fix so it never recurs. You build with vibe coding, low-code platforms, and agentic workflows.

You report to the Senior Manager, End-user Computing. This role is based onsite at our One-North office.

The Critical Tasks You Will Perform

• Run operations — oversee the Singapore service desk, endpoint fleet, and office IT. Prioritise work, meet internal SLAs, and act as Singapore's primary IT contact for support, applications, and escalations.
• Deliver office and infra projects — lead office build, relocations, and network/AV upgrades, working with the relevant stakeholders and service owners.
• Build and automate — design, prototype, and ship scripts, integrations, and lightweight tools that remove manual effort and improve the Grabber IT experience.
• Adopt AI workflows — use AI and agentic automation to take on more of the IT support workload, from everyday requests to the complex issues that normally need a specialist. Guide the team to adopt it responsibly.
• Improve observability — add telemetry, dashboards, and alerting for proactive detection, and strengthen ITSM/CMDB data (e.g. Freshservice) for accurate reporting across the asset lifecycle.
• Partner and govern — work with regional teams on systems, policies, and the security of data, network access, and infrastructure, and manage vendor cost and performance.

What Essential Skills You Will Need

• 5+ years managing IT Operations or EUC teams, including resourcing and capacity.
• Hands-on experience deploying and supporting laptops, desktops, video conferencing, and networking across Mac, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS, plus running infrastructure projects such as office builds, relocations, and network/AV upgrades.
• Build solutions with AI-assisted development ("vibe coding"), scripting (Python, SQL, shell), and low-code platforms (e.g. n8n). Come ready to walk through tools you have built — the problem, your approach, and the impact.
• Experience with AI and agentic workflows: LLM-assisted development (Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot), tool-calling / MCP integrations, or agent orchestration on real operational tasks.
• ITIL certification or equivalent experience.
• Telemetry and observability builds (dashboards, alerting, log/metric pipelines).
• ITSM/CMDB customisation (Freshservice, ServiceNow, or equivalent).

You are methodical, communicate clearly, and pick up new technology quickly. Occasional out-of-hours support is expected for major incidents.
