Overview:
U.S. citizen with ability to obtain and maintain USAID Secret Clearance.
USAID’s Bureau for Africa (AFR) Office of Sustainable Development (AFR/SD) seeks a Senior Digital Ecosystems and Policy Advisor to manage and provide policy and technical guidance on upcoming digital development activities. The Africa Bureau’s vision is for USAID to play a leading role in the growth of African digital ecosystems in collaboration with USAID Missions, interagency partners, and in partnership with African communities, governments, and the private sector. USAID will promote technologies that will further the growth of internet access, technology standards, digital literacy, and increased economic opportunities. USAID/AFR seeks a dynamic individual capable of leading a complex suite of digital development policy and program discussions and planning exercises in collaboration with senior and working level contacts within USAID, other U.S. government partners, and the private sector.
Africa is a center of digital innovation driven by technologies and platforms that address long-standing challenges with infrastructure, connectivity, and service delivery. Digital solutions have long been part of USAID’s development work, and USAID released its first Digital Strategy in 2020. The strategy aims to achieve and sustain open, secure, and inclusive digital ecosystems that contribute to broad-based, measurable development and humanitarian-assistance outcomes. The strategy relies upon the responsible use of technology and the strengthening of digital ecosystems.
AFR/SD has taken a leadership role in designing and implementing a forthcoming White House initiative on digital development in Africa, which will leverage an interagency approach in development finance, foreign assistance, commercial diplomacy, and diverse investments in capital, skills, networks, and expertise to accelerate the growth of the digital economy in Africa under three pillars of activity: 1. Digital Infrastructure, Internet Access, and Digital Services Growth, 2. Human Capital Development, 3. Enabling Environment Support.
AFR supports U.S. goals of stabilizing fragile states and promoting transformational development through the full range of foreign assistance programming, including promoting peace and security, democracy, good governance, agricultural development, free markets, and economic integration, a sustainable environment, improved human health, education, and the delivery of humanitarian assistance so that Africans and Africa can achieve their full potential.

The Advisor will also be expected to assess and articulate the impact of these technologies on international development priorities, such as women's economic empowerment, closing the digital divide, the rule of law, human rights, democracy and governance, climate change, and food security.
The incumbent will make recommendations on how foreign assistance resources can be used to promote the development of digital ecosystems that enable positive development outcomes. As such, the incumbent is expected to have familiarity with how digital markets and their associated business models work or can affect (in both positive and negative ways) communities, small businesses, and individuals. In addition, the incumbent is expected to have familiarity with technical innovations, cybersecurity, legal and regulatory issues, and other components related to developing a healthy digital ecosystem.
