He became assistant curator of the Raffles Museum (now the National University of Singapore's Raffles Museum of Biodiversity Research) in 1932 until the Japanese occupation in 1941. After the war in 1946 he became Director of the museum, remaining in that post until 1971. Tweedie was involved in many biological and archaeological expeditions in South East Asia and collected many specimens himself. Many of Tweedie's collections were of species that proved to be new to science (such as the leech, Phytobdella catenifera). He also wrote many scientific articles particularly regarding crustaceans, fish and reptiles. He also wrote many books to encourage the layman in the study of natural history and archaeology. He was made an honorary member of the Malayan Nature Society.Tweedie married Elvira Toby, of Hobart, Australia in 1938, and they had a son and two daughters.".
