About the Organisation

Raising The Village works to end extreme poverty by eliminating immediate barriers of scarcity, nurturing income generation activities and building local capacity, while moving communities toward economic self-sufficiency. We partner with some of the most remote and impoverished communities in Sub-Saharan Africa. These “last mile” villages have limited access to basic services including health and water, operating outside of the economic pyramid. Partner villages survive on household incomes as low as $0.10/day. At these levels, families subsist without a safety net and are pushed back further into extreme poverty by circumstances and susceptible to the smallest of shocks including family illness, poor harvest or inflation.

Raising The Village's PEAL department is seeking a talented DevOps Engineer to join our growing team. The DevOps Engineer will play a crucial role in supporting the deployment and localization of our project management applications on local data centers and other cloud service provider platforms. This individual will collaborate closely with cross-functional teams to ensure seamless deployment, configuration, monitoring, and optimization of our applications.
