Subject: [I-TECH Seattle] Job Announcement: Senior Digital Health Specialist
Good afternoon,
The International Training and Education Center for Health (I-TECH) has an outstanding opportunity for a Seattle-based Senior Digital Health Specialist.
The Digital Initiatives Group (DIGI) at the International Training and Education Center for Health (I-TECH) within the Department of Global Health at the University of Washington will provide services to internal and
external clients to help people make informed decisions to improve health outcomes globally. DIGI promotes various technologies, with a preference for open-source software and the “global digital goods” supported by multiple donors and ministries around the
world.
The Senior Digital Health Specialist is a member of the DIGI team, reporting to the Managing Director, and guides the implementation of national health information systems, which support optimal decision-making and efficient use
of resources by health service providers and public health authorities. The Senior Digital Health Specialist serves as the project lead on one or more small- or large-scale projects involving health information technology and the broader enabling environment
that promotes their successful integration, maintenance, and use. The position leads the design, development and deployment of these systems. This is accomplished with emphasis on appropriate, user-centered design and deployment choices, which support high
quality results and use of the data and information collected. It will be this position's responsibility to select software solutions that best serve the needs of the client.
Qualified applicants should apply through the
UW employment site.
COMMITMENT TO DIVERSITY
The Department of Global Health recognizes that disparities in health around the globe stem from inequity. The Department encourages and supports the multiple identities of staff, faculty and students including,
but not limited to, socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity, language, nationality, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, culture, spiritual practice, geography, mental and physical disability and age. The Department strives to become a local,
national, and international leader in developing and maintaining increased representation and recognition of each of these dimensions of diversity among its faculty, staff, and students.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
