GovStack Implementer.

The implementer designs and configures new modules on the platform. They are the closest thing the agency has to a product engineer for its own services. The track teaches them to deliver new digital services without writing platform code.

§ 01 / WHO IT IS FOR

The role behind the track.

An implementer takes a service that exists on paper, in a regulation, or in a backlog of citizen requests, and turns it into a working module on the platform. They model the data, design the workflow, build the screens, configure the integrations, and ship. The whole loop is configuration-first. Source-level work is rare and deferred. A 200-user agency typically has four to eight implementers spread across service lines.

§ 02 / THE FOUR LEVELS

Curriculum, level by level.

L1
Foundations · 5 days
Configuration-first thinking. Entity modelling. Workflow construction. Screen design. Validation rules. Reports and exports. Permissions model. Lab: build a sample licensing workflow.
L2
Practitioner · 10 days + 30 days supervised
Advanced workflow patterns. Inter-module integration. Notification design. Document generation. Public registers. Citizen-facing surface. Case study: ship one real module on the customer's tenancy under examiner supervision.
L3
Expert · Self-directed, 4–6 months
Cross-cutting modules. Performance under load. Configuration testing strategy. Migration from legacy. Internationalization. Two complex modules shipped, written paper on architectural lesson learned, oral examination.
L4
Architect · Peer-nominated, capped intake
Whole-platform design. Module catalogue ownership. Cross-agency integration patterns. Authority to sign off implementer work for the agency. Architecture board defence.
§ 03 / EXAMINATION & CERTIFICATION

How the level is actually awarded.

L1 examination
Multiple-choice plus a build-from-spec lab. Pass mark 70%.
L2 examination
A real module shipped to production on the customer's tenancy within a 30-day window. Assessed against published rubric covering modelling, workflow, UX, and integration.
L3 examination
Two projects, paper, oral. The paper must contribute something original (a pattern, an anti-pattern, a lesson) to the community.
L4 examination
Architecture board. Includes review of the candidate's L3 paper and at least two L2-or-L3 candidates they have mentored to certification.
Re-certification
Every 24 months. New-feature familiarization plus a small build exercise.
