About the role

  • Map and assess the current data ecosystem (tablets, Kobo/forms, WhatsApp, manual reporting, internal data platform) and document workflows
  • Assess infrastructure constraints (connectivity, technical capacity, risks) and produce current-state architecture mapping
  • Design a target technical architecture to enable automated collection, integration, and visualization of core fidelity metrics (dosage, engagement time, syncing regularity, tablet functionality)
  • Define integration pathways across data sources (game usage logs, Kobo observation data, visit/monitoring reports) to enable triangulation
  • Design data flows optimized for low-bandwidth contexts and government-led scale
  • Develop data governance protocols aligned with partner/government structures while maintaining quality assurance
  • Create a phased implementation roadmap and start building priority components within a Data Management Portal
  • Produce clear technical documentation and run knowledge transfer sessions with the client team

Requirements

  • Proven experience in data architecture and technical specification development
  • Strong data integration experience across multiple tools/platforms (APIs, ETL/ELT, databases)
  • Experience with data collection platforms (Kobo or similar)
  • Ability to design for low-connectivity/limited technical capacity environments
  • Hands-on implementation experience (not strategy-only) and strong documentation skills
  • Strong English communication, ability to work independently, meet tight deadlines
  • Experience designing for scale (pilot to government-led implementation)
  • Knowledge of data governance in development contexts and/or government partnership models in East Africa
  • Cloud infrastructure/server management experience
  • Familiarity with EdTech or game-based learning platforms
