PATH’s Center of Digital and Data Excellence (CoDE) is committed to scaling Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the low and middle-income countries. Our work spans the entire software development lifecycle from analysis of information systems to deployment and long-term use of those systems. The Digital Health team at PATH works with government ministries of health, information and communication technology companies, the global health sector, and investors to improve the design, development, interoperability, and implementation of management information systems.


Digital Square, an initiative within CoDE, is one of PATH’s innovative responses to Global Health challenges to be a driver of change. Conceived from the lessons of the inefficiencies and redundancies of investments in digital technologies—including mistakes made during the Ebola response—the initiative will bring global and regional actors together to create a new way of thinking about, and a new way of doing, development.


PATH is currently recruiting for a Sr. Finance and Budget Analyst for its Digital Square’s operations team. The Sr. Finance and Budget Analyst will serve as cost lead for Digital Square’s business development activities and provide initiative-level financial analysis for Digital Square’s portfolio of awards. The successful candidate will work with the Director and Deputy Director of Operations and Project Administrators (PADMs) responsible for Digital Square’s three primary workstreams to track expenditures and support successful implementation, reporting, and forecasting.
