Off the Beaten Track and into the Skies
Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical and Electronics Engineering (Honours), Nanyang Technological University (NTU), 2019
People are the heart of the Republic of Singapore Air Force (RSAF). It is the dedication of their airmen and women that allows the capabilities of high-end weaponry and sophisticated systems to be capitalised upon fully.
ME4 Joann Ng, an Air Force Engineer, is one such shining example. Her primary responsibility is to ensure that the Chinook, one of the RSAF’s helicopters, is ready to be deployed for missions.
The deciding factor
Since young, I had a strong interest in science and a keen aptitude for mathematics, and I thought that it was the “marriage” of these two subjects that “birthed” engineering, which plays a crucial part in our daily lives.
Also, a military career is challenging yet extraordinary. After attending various career roadshows and talks that my school organised, I decided it was the RSAF for me!
Exciting moments
For me, there is no particular moment. Rather, managing multiple internal and external projects simultaneously and successfully is enough to make me feel extremely proud. As a junior officer, I think these opportunities are hard to come by and I am honoured to be leading the different teams to achieve mission success.
What I enjoy most about my job

It is collaborative. We embrace each other’s differences and play to each other’s strengths and competencies. Everyone plays a part in the team.
Opportunities
The RSAF provides many opportunities for individuals to develop their passion. There are many vocations in the air force beyond engineering.
Advice for graduates
A job in the RSAF would be a challenging yet fulfilling one. If you are looking for a meaningful career, the RSAF is the place to be!
