[Quarterly SWE Meetup](swe_meetup/meetup_2023_2.md)\n\n## Past\n\n### 2022\n\n#### Rationalisation of Frontend \u0026 Backend Engineering Competencies with DSAI\n\nContext\n\n- Started in Sept 2022 when given the guidance to identify commonalities and rationalise similar competencies amongst different functional clusters.\n- DSAI's Frontend \u0026 Backend Programming might be similar to Apps Dev SWE's Frontend Engineering and Backend Engineering.\n- Jie Sheng from ACE and Weiguang from DSAID begin working on the rationalisation.\n\nApproach\n\n- Similarties and differences are identified.\n- DSAI's Frontend Engineering competency include data visualisation and charting descriptors.\n- DSAI's Backend Engineering competency include data pipelining.\n- The agreed approach is to include data science descriptors to the current Apps Dev competencies.\n- Assessment criteria will be defined by both parties so that there will be a common yardstick to assess staff in both DSAID and Apps Dev.\n\nEndorsed\n\n- Weiguang presented to CDMC on 06 Feb 2023 and was approved in the same meeting.\n- Incorporated additional descriptors to the current Apps Dev Frontend Engineering and Backend Engineering competencies, to include DSAI requirements.\n- For DSAI-specific and GDS-specific projects/nuances, it will be contextualised in the assessment critieria.\n- Rationalised competencies will be owned by Apps Dev, with Alvina (DSAI) as the Co-Chapter Lead for Software Engineer job role, assessing DSAI officers.\n- Co-Chapter Leads will align in terms of the assessment criteria and assessment of staff, across GDS and DSAI to ensure porosity.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgovtechsg%2Fgds-ace-swe-chapter","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fgovtechsg%2Fgds-ace-swe-chapter","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fgovtechsg%2Fgds-ace-swe-chapter/lists"}
