Tech for Good: Why You Should Lead Digital Health Innovation at Malaria Consortium

​Are you a technologist passionate about making a real-world impact? Do you believe that data and digital tools are the keys to solving some of the world’s most persistent health challenges?

​Malaria Consortium (MC) is currently looking for visionary State Campaign Digital Health Officers in Abuja, Borno, and Kogi. This isn’t just an IT role—it’s a leadership opportunity to architect the digital systems that will help eliminate malaria in Nigeria.

​The Mission: Beyond the Code

​In Nigeria, malaria remains a significant challenge, but the tools we use to fight it are evolving. As a Digital Health Senior Technical Officer, you won’t just be maintaining systems; you will be the bridge between innovative technology and public health impact.

​Your work will directly address inefficiencies in program implementation and provide the evidence needed for life-saving decision-making. From designing digital needs assessments to integrating community-level data into national dashboards, you will be at the forefront of health digitization.

• ​Building a Legacy: A core part of this mission is sustainability. You will be training government stakeholders and building local capacity so that these digital platforms thrive long after the campaign ends.
• ​Real Impact: Every dashboard you build and every Android application you refine helps ensure that health interventions reach the children and families who need them most.
