Job description

At eGov, we start with citizens and the everyday public services that shape their lives. A parent is bringing a child to a clinic. A family waiting for water . A streetlight that finally gets fixed. In those moments, government is not policy or process—it is lived experience. We believe everyone deserves public services that are accessible, responsive, and transparent—services that work consistently, reach everyone, and respect people’s time and dignity.

To make this possible, we partner closely with governments to strengthen the foundations on which public services run. Our core approach is offering the DIGIT platform - a Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) - that helps create shared, reusable digital systems that enable governments to plan, deliver, and monitor public services at scale. DPI is not about a single application or program; it is about creating common rails that many services, departments, and partners can use over time.

But public services do not improve solely through technology. We work with governments on strategy, institutional design, and implementation, and we help build ecosystems of partners that can deliver together. By aligning policy, processes, people, financing, and digital systems, we support the state to turn intent into services that work on the ground.

Across India, Africa, and other emerging economies, we help governments move from fragmented, project-led digitisation to durable public infrastructure that belongs to the state and quietly improves public services day after day. When this works well, citizens may never see the systems behind it—but they feel the difference in how services show up in their lives.

We currently work in 10 countries, and more than 1 billion people and hundreds of sectoral public services systems have been built on DIGIT.

You’ll thrive here if you:

• Care deeply about citizens and the quality of public services
• Believe strong state capacity is essential to inclusive development
• Enjoy working across strategy, partnerships, and execution
• Want to build systems that endure beyond individual projects

We are strategists, technologists, momentum builders, and partners—but above all, people committed to making public services work better for everyone.
