Experienced software developer sought to live in Nairobi, Kenya to

 

-                       provide technical management to junior Kenyan
developers, and 

-                       help shape a new strategy to enhance capacity for
open source software development in low-income countries.   

 

We are promoting "Coded in Country" (CIC) as a "FairTrade" label for
software projects.  Software is certified as "Coded in Country" if at least
50% of the software development budget was spent on local developers. This
concept has been met with great enthusiasm by many organizations developing
health applications for low-income countries.

 

The experienced developer will supervise and mentor three junior programmers
at a CIC node operated by DataDyne.org and specializing in mobile
applications including EpiSurveyor and JavaROSA. The technical manager will
attend at least one relevant international conference per year, as will the
programmers. 

 

The position covers travel expenses, living costs, and a small stipend. 12
month commitment required.

 

If interested, please send a CV and brief statement of interest to Joel
Selanikio (jselanikio at datadyne.org).
