JOB DETAILS:
Ona is a social enterprise that builds the data infrastructure to drive change.

Our goal is never simply to build a great product, but to support great outcomes.
We’re looking for developers who want to build foundational data systems that drive change.
Our team has worked on projects that record the social infrastructure of entire countries, tally the winners of national elections, and reduce infant mortality.
We build software that solves real problems and you will too.
This position is to work on the OpenSRP team at Ona.
OpenSRP is an open source mobile health platform that allows front line health workers to electronically register and track the health of their entire client population. .

• You stay up to date with the latest trends and are excited to learn new languages, tools, and best practices.
Explorer.
• Since we’re a startup, you’ll have to be a self-starter who is organized and can manage multiple projects at the same time.
