The Center of Digital and Data Excellence (CoDE) at PATH works with government ministries of health, the private sector, and donors to strengthen the use of digital technologies and data for improved health services. Digital Square is one of CoDE’s flagship global initiatives. It is PATH-led and funded by multiple donors, including USAID and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, to advance digitally enabled health services to help close the health equity gap. Conceived from the lessons of the inefficiencies and redundancies of prior investments in digital technologies for international development, Digital Square works with ministries of health to align adaptable, interoperable digital technologies with local health needs and brings partners together to improve how the global community designs, uses, and pays for digital health tools and approaches.
Digital Square is currently recruiting for a Technical Program Officer to provide strategic guidance and technical support for a growing portfolio of COVID-19-related activities, designed to support national governments in low-and middle-income countries to adapt, scale, and accelerate the deployment of digital tools that address demand-side challenges for COVID-19 vaccination.
Responsibilities:
The Technical Program Officer (TPO) will be a key member of the technical team and will coordinate and lead research, analysis, strategy, communication for their portfolio activities to ensure timely, strong, co-created project deliverables. The person in this role will provide support and expertise in a particular functional or skill area to the broader team, and support development of annual work plans and overarching project management. They will act as the technical liaison with project administrators to assure that reports and milestones are met for all assigned projects.
