PATH is a global organization that works to accelerate health equity by bringing together public institutions, businesses, social enterprises, and investors to solve the world's most pressing health challenges. With expertise in science, health, economics, technology, advocacy, and dozens of other specialties, PATH develops and scales solutions-including vaccines, drugs, devices, diagnostics, and innovative approaches to strengthening health systems worldwide.

PATH has unparalleled expertise and experience in the development of new tools and strategies for malaria elimination and has the potential to become an acknowledged leader in accelerating efforts towards malaria elimination and global eradication.

PATH's Malaria Portfolio is seeking a senior advisor who is an expert on using digital tools in malaria, disease surveillance, health information systems development, and health sector digitalization to help PATH envision and realize the future of malaria prevention, care and elimination in the digital age.

Responsibilities:

• Leverage understanding of data and digital health landscape - both open source software solutions (see the for PATH's supported global goods) and commercially licensed tools and technologies available in the private market - to support national malaria, NTD, and other disease surveillance programs to identify and implement innovative digitally-enabled approaches and interventions for malaria
• Lead the development of collaborative, integrated digitally enabled approaches for countries with diverse malaria stakeholders at the global, regional, and country levels (e.g. improving community use of tools, improving data integration within existing tools)
• Support partners and malaria programs with the development of digital and data governance, data sharing and data privacy and security standards that help ensure the safety of providers and clients alike
• Support country Ministries of Health and malaria programs with the development of geo-registries and improving geographical data for improving data visualization and decision-making

• Facilitate and inform strategy discussions for digitalization in the malaria space with donors and internally at PATH; translate existing donor strategies for health in the digital age into program design and evaluation
• Connect digital activities within PATH's programs (both in malaria and beyond malaria) to leverage lessons learned, translate global and country-level standards, and support implementation of digital health programs
• Link PATH Malaria's digital health activities to broader global digital health investments within PATH (e.g. Digital Square) and among donors
• Design partnerships for data and digital health within malaria to support existing and upcoming PATH malaria programs
• Support the development of proposals for additional resources to enable further digital transformation priorities
• Represent PATH's malaria and digital experience and capabilities internally and externally (e.g. donors, malaria community, in-country stakeholders)
• Supervise and mentor junior technical staff members

Qualifications:
