🔥 JDS x WDS Code Mentoring Programme: System Design
**RSVP here: [https://luma.com/469nzlb5](https://luma.com/469nzlb5)**
System design interviews can feel intimidating, but they don’t have to be.
As part of the **Code Mentoring Programme**, we’re bringing together engineers, job seekers, mentors, and mentees for a practical workshop on how to approach system design interviews with more clarity and confidence.
Led by **Victoria Lo**, Solutions Engineer Lead and WomenDevsSG Director, together with **Aishwarya**, Community & Programs Lead, this session will walk through a repeatable framework for structuring your answers, communicating tradeoffs, and focusing on what interviewers actually want to see.
Instead of memorising patterns, you’ll learn how to apply a method to any system design problem.
Through a guided case study, we’ll cover how to:
✅ Break down requirements, entities, and APIs
✅ Sketch a high-level architecture
✅ Dive deep into critical design areas
✅ Practise applying the framework in real time with other attendees
🎯 **Who this is for:**
Engineers, job seekers, and professionals preparing for technical interviews who want to build confidence in tackling system design questions.
📅 **Date:** 25 June 2026, Thursday
🕖 **Time:** 6:30 PM – 9:00 PM
📍 **Venue:** The Trade Desk
🔗 **Register to be a mentor or mentee:**
Apply by **15 June 2026** → [https://linktr.ee/juniordevsg_mentoring](https://linktr.ee/juniordevsg_mentoring?utm_source=luma)
Come ready to learn, practise, ask questions, and grow together.

STACK Meetup [Engineering]: The Rebuilding of Singpass’ Infrastructure Platform
**ANNOUNCEMENT – Registration via this [link](https://go.gov.sg/stackmeetup-25jun2026) only.**
Singpass is the backbone of Singapore's national digital identity, but what does it actually take to run, scale, and evolve the infrastructure beneath?
In this engineering-focused Meetup, we'll trace the evolution of Singpass’ infrastructure from its early days to the present. Deep dive into the modern architectural strategies being deployed today by the team to ensure that this critical digital product is secure and resilient by default.
Moving past the buzzwords, we will dissect what truly constitutes PaaP or Platform as a Product, and pull back the curtain on the real-world realities of leading a platform engineering team.
Whether you are currently building internal tooling or seeking inspiration on scaling your cloud-native systems, this session will challenge you to rethink how your organisation can approach infrastructure.
Who should attend: Software Engineers, Cloud and Infrastructure professionals, and Product Managers working on infrastructure platforms. Attendees should have a basic understanding of Kubernetes or Cloud Service Providers.

Is This Really It? — An Honest Evening Conversation
**I want to ask you something personal.**
**When did you last have a conversation — a real one — where you didn’t have to perform being okay?**
**Not with your colleagues. Not with your family who worry about you. Not on a first date where you’re still deciding how much to reveal.**
**Just an honest conversation. About where you actually are. What you actually want. What’s quietly weighing on you that you haven’t found the right moment — or the right person — to say out loud yet.**
**I ask because I think a lot of us are carrying more than we let on.**
**The career that pays the bills but costs you something you can’t quite name. The love life that hasn’t gone the way you hoped, no matter how hard you’ve tried. The Sunday evening feeling that the week ahead is just more of the same — and the life you actually wanted is somehow still waiting somewhere in the future.**
**You’re not broken. You’re not behind. You’re just human. And you deserve a space to actually say that.**
**That’s what this evening is.**
**I’m Victoria. Many of you know me from our dinners, breakfasts, and walks over the years.**
**What you may not know is everything I’ve walked through and the rollercoaster rides I’ve been on to get here.**
**On the professional front, I’ve spent years in HR and coaching holding space for people through retrenchments, burnout, and career crossroads. I’ve coached thousands of professionals through some of the most uncertain chapters of their lives.**
**I run my own business. I’ve organised dating events for singles courageous enough to open their hearts again. I’ve sat across from so many people who came to me feeling lost — and left with something shifting inside them.**
**And through all of it, I’m on my own journey. Still am.**
**I’ve made a lot of pivots in my life and I’ll share with you more tonight — not because I have it all figured out, but because I think something in my story might speak to something in yours.**
**Many of you have asked me over the years why I run these gatherings the way I do. No sponsors. No agenda. No pitch. I just love bringing people together. I’m happy to help. I’m simply happy to be there for you. That’s always been enough for me.**
**You know those walks we do — where I’m playing tour guide, making us walk, pointing things out? I go home after those sessions genuinely happy. Full. That feeling of having connected people, having created something real out of just a few hours together — I simply enjoy it.**
**This evening is no different. Just more intentional. More intimate.**
**And maybe — for some of you — more timely.**
**We’ll talk about the things we usually don’t.**
**The rat race and whether you’re running toward something or just running. What it would mean to one day own your time completely. Love and the courage it takes to keep your heart open after disappointment. Starting over — in career, in relationships, in the quiet belief that the best chapters are still ahead.**
**No agenda. No slides. No performance.**
**Just a handful of us in a room being brave enough to be real with each other and ourselves.**
**The evening will be held in a quiet, private meeting room — a proper space for conversations like this. No background noise, no interruptions, no one rushing you along. Just the kind of unhurried environment that a reflection this important actually deserves.**
**A quick note on RSVPs — like many of you know, our Meetup events tend to get a lot of sign-ups and not everyone makes it on the night. Because this room has limited seats and I want every chair filled with someone who genuinely wants to be here, I’m doing this one a little differently.**
**If you haven’t got my number, please message me directly to receive my contact number and confirm your attendance. Your spot is only reserved once you’ve confirmed with me personally and not just on meetup. It wouldn’t feel right to hold a seat for someone who isn’t coming when there may be someone else who needs this evening far more.**
**First come, first seated — and I genuinely hope that’s you. 🤍**
**This is not a seminar. Not a networking event. Not a motivational talk.**
**Just people connecting with people. People who are honest enough with themselves to know that life could be fuller — in career, in love, in freedom, in just feeling like themselves again.**
**Maybe you need a real conversation. Maybe you need to hear that someone else feels it too. Maybe you just need one evening that reminds you the things you want are still possible.**
**This evening might not change everything. But it might change something. A perspective. A decision you’ve been putting off. A conversation that needed to happen. A realisation that’s been waiting quietly for the right moment.**
**You’ve been putting yourself last for long enough.**
**Come. Show up for yourself — even just this once.**
**That little bit more is waiting for you. 🤍**
****** ***Out of respect for the openness and safety of this space — and based on feedback from our community — I’d also ask that you share your occupation when you message me to confirm. This evening is a genuine, pressure-free conversation and to keep it that way, I’m unable to accommodate those working in sales, MLM, or similar fields. I hope you understand and appreciate that this boundary exists to protect the experience for everyone in the room. 🙏*** ******
Prime Midlife Men's Circle Breakfast Club
**Men's Circle: Breakfast & Conversation**

***
Midlife has a way of making the big questions louder and the places to say them out loud, fewer.
The Men's Circle is changing that.
A relaxed, men-only morning for honest conversation, no agenda to fix or optimise, no performance required. Just real talk over a good cup of coffee, with men who are navigating the same season.

Practical Philosophy Meetup - Singapore 🇸🇬
🏛️ **WHAT'S PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY ABOUT?**
Practical Philosophy is a weekly meet-up that brings critical thinkers together for an opportunity to dive deep on a topic, practice communicating, and building a community. All with no ‘official’ philosophy knowledge required! 😎
Practical Philosophy is based on the idea that philosophy should be accessible to all, and not something reserved only for academics. Each week we choose a topic, and the goal is to use the conversation to develop our critical thinking and communication as we explore that topic.
The goal is to help develop our Critical Thinking, Communication, and Community 🙌
📓 **HOW DOES IT WORK?**
Each week, we pick one topic and discuss it. The topic for the week is shared, generally in the [Whatsapp group](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t), along with jump-off points to get the conversation going.
When groups get bigger than 7-8 people, it’s important that we break into smaller groups. This way we are able to maintain a conversational flow as opposed to having our meetups feel like a discourse or lecture.
**General Meeting Agenda**
Each Practical Philosophy meet-up follows this general timeline:
* 19:00-19:15 - People arrive and chat, get to know each other before the ‘official' start.
* 19:15-19:25 - Meeting introduction, explanation of Practical Philosophy and the topic for the week, read the guidelines and the overview so attendees know what to expect in terms of timelines.
* 19:25-20:45 - Break into small groups - introduce yourselves and general thoughts on the topic, open discussion afterwards. At this point the group can review the ‘jump-off’ questions as needed, but they are just there to help guide the conversation. It’s not obligatory to answer them.
* 20:45-21:00 - Bring everyone back together to discuss conclusions of the topic - each group gives a short 1-minute summary. Organizer concludes the meeting and everyone takes a group photo.
* 21:00 - The official meeting is over but it’s a great opportunity to get to know people in a non-structured environment, so we often stick around, chat, and get to know each other.
**🧧PRICING?**
Practical Philosophy Club is FREE to attend! We just ask that if we are meeting in a café, buy a beverage! Some chapters rent a space for us to meet, and they may ask for donations to help contribute to the cost of rent. Donations will always be 100% voluntary though!
💛 **WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT PRACTICAL PHILOSOPHY**
🗣 “I feel like Philosophy Club helps someone build their own belief system through a series of perspectives while not promoting what’s right and wrong” - Ekam
🗣 “I got hooked from day 1 (the topic was authority) and felt it was the right place for me. I feel it is a place where people can go to learn and discuss new perspectives and increase critical thinking and community by interacting with people who might challenge your point of views but at the same time encourage you to have openness and mind flexibility.” - Daniel
**🤓 FAQ**
* What will we talk about? What's the topic?
The topic for the week is shared every Sunday in the Whatsapp group. We try to add the topic to the comment section on this event page as well but if you don’t see it, the topic and the jump-off points will be in our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t).
* Do I need to study or read anything to attend?
No preparation is necessary. This isn’t a study of other thinkers. We want to know what YOU think about the topic, not what an old philosopher thought. If you have a perspective from a religion or a school of thought to share, throw it on the table and we’ll discuss it, but it's not required.
* Is there a specific philosophy that Practical Philosophy is focused on?
The goal of our meet-ups is to not have dogmatic discussions, and flex our critical thinking muscles. Because of this, we want to hear from every realm of thought, and don't study a particular school.
* Is it mostly men that attend?
Surprisingly, no! Although philosophy is seen as a Candelabra affair in a dark room with a bunch of guys, our Practical Philosophy meetups are generally 50/50 between genders, and we don’t meet in any dark rooms.
* Can I come alone?
Of course you can, we encourage it :)
* Can I be late?
Please don't be! We do have a 15 minute grace period where we allow people to funnel in while we hang out, but after that if you arrive too late, it disrupts the flow of the conversation.
* Where do you meet?
The location is posted in Meetup and our [Whatsapp](https://chat.whatsapp.com/Dsjl0cwLVxR4tw1jTC1Osx?mode=gi_t) group for this location. It is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED that you join the Whatsapp group! If you want to know what other cities have a Practical Philosophy Club, you can see our chapters on our [website](https://www.practicalphilosophy.club/practical-philosophy-locations/).

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able!
Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
Evolve Elevate (Virtual)
Evolve is all about creating an Authentic Community, Deeper Connections, and Confident Growth. We are a group of entrepreneurial women who connect personally and professionally. We welcome every guest to experience our authentic community with no cliques and no judgment. Come as you are! There's a seat waiting for you.
Elevate is an action-oriented connection experience designed to help women entrepreneurs move beyond surface-level networking and into meaningful growth, collaboration, and courageous action. Each session centers around a focused business or personal development topic, followed by intentional breakout discussions that encourage deeper conversations, real relationship-building, and practical next steps.
Unlike traditional networking events, Elevate is designed to create momentum. Women are encouraged not only to share ideas, but to actively support one another through accountability, collaboration, brainstorming, and action-based growth. Every meeting is an opportunity to build authentic connections, gain fresh perspective, and leave with a clear action step to implement before the next session.
This is a space where women rise together — not through competition or hustle culture, but through encouragement, courage, consistency, and intentional community.

Evolve Shades of Sisterhood (Virtual)
Evolve exists to provide a welcoming place for professional women to create an authentic community, deeper connections, and confident growth through networking and workshop events. No cliques, no judgement.
**Shades of Sisterhood** is a space for women to grow from the inside out through meaningful conversations, personal development, mindset growth, and courageous self-awareness. These gatherings are designed to create deeper connection, expand perspective, and encourage women to become healthier, stronger, and more aligned versions of themselves — both personally and professionally.
Through honest dialogue, shared experiences, and intentional conversations around identity, leadership, confidence, relationships, emotional resilience, and growth, women are invited into a supportive environment where they can learn, reflect, heal, and evolve together.
This is not about perfection, hustle culture, or surface-level positivity. It is about creating a safe space for women to have real conversations, challenge limiting beliefs, grow in self-awareness, and step more confidently into who they were created to become.
At its core, Shades of Sisterhood exists to remind women that growth starts within — and no woman has to navigate that journey alone.
Guests are always welcome. We'd love to meet you!
