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 (https://www.digitalsquare.org) is one of CoDE’s flagship global initiatives. It is PATH-led and funded by multiple donors, including the United States Agency for International Development (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.
PATH is currently recruiting a Technical Project Manager (TPM) to join the Digital Square team. The TPM will work closely with PATH colleagues, partners from the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), and Ministry of Health (MOH) in Tanzania to implement the Digital Innovation and Pandemic Control (DIPC) project. The DIPC project aims to deploy digital tools to support vaccine data systems and immunization management for pandemic preparedness. The TPM will report to the Senior Technical Project Manager in Tanzania.
