• Experience 4 years
• Location Nairobi
• Job Field Data, Business Analysis and AI , ICT / Computer
• Ensure migration/displacement data, model outputs, and workflows developed by ICPAC and partners are integrated into ICPAC early warning systems and value-added services to enhance decision-making across various actors and stakeholders.
• Monitor ICPAC systems are continuously updated and improved in terms of data, products, and features; workflows are automated; code is maintained and updated; systems are optimized; new functionalities are developed; and systems are continuously innovated and customized to meet user needs, based on feedback and new requirements.
• Support the collection, aggregation and analysis of disaster displacement data in the IGAD region and integration in the ICPAC/IGAD geoportal as a base layer.
• Provide technical guidance on system improvement to leverage best technologies, support scientists and data managers with workflow automation
• Design, implement and support capacity building activities for various users of the early warning information and systems, mainly on risk of displacement
• Develop and maintain interactive dashboards and visualization tools to ensure geospatial data is presented in a user-friendly format for decision-makers.
• Integrate Machine Learning (ML) and AI technologies to improve forecasting and automation of displacement risk models.
• Implement best practices for data security in geospatial systems, including access control, encryption, and disaster recovery planning.
• Collaborate with national and regional partners to ensure integration aligns with member state and other partner agencies needs.
• Conduct regular training and capacity-building sessions for policymakers, partner organizations, and data users to enhance their understanding of geospatial tools, displacement risk models, and early warning systems.
• Develop APIs and automate data pipelines to ensure seamless integration of climate, displacement, and hazard datasets into ICPAC systems.
• Optimize dissemination mechanisms to ensure early warning information reaches the right people at the right time
• Performs such other duties as may be assigned from time to time.
• University degree in Computer Science, Geo-Informatics, Computer Engineering, IT or another relevant field
• Candidates should demonstrate their qualifications and proficiency in web application development and geo-application development (provide links to at least 2 samples of previous work and/or Github code)
