Sand Technologies is hiring an Operations Deployment Specialist

Sand is expanding across Africa and beyond, partnering with governments and public sector officials to deliver transformative AI and data solutions. We have deployed our flagship platform - the Health Operating System (HOS) - in more than 5 countries already. In Rwanda, hundreds of clinics have already been digitized, transforming rural facilities into next-generation health centers that are redefining care in Africa. Sand’s groundbreaking HOS integrates data and services to drive better outcomes - from maternal health to chronic disease management - already reaching more than 1 million patients. Designed for digital empowerment, the HOS equips thousands of frontline health workers with the tools and support they need to magnify their impact and strengthen community health. The HOS is already operational across multiple countries, with plans to expand to 16 countries by the end of 2026, led by our Country Directors. This is not an idea — it’s already happening, and the momentum is accelerating. But healthcare is only one example; Sand is growing in various industries, namely water, energy, and telecommunications. We are looking for an Operations Specialist who will own the last mile—ensuring equipment, systems, and teams are ready to launch. This is a logistics-heavy, action-oriented role perfect for detail lovers who like fieldwork. Specific Responsibilities - Own & coordinate tech and hardware deployments to health posts and ICs. - Ensure deployment readiness: power, internet, devices, trained users. - Maintain deployment logs and timelines. - Work closely with integrators and support teams post-deployment. Requirements - Essential - 2–4 years of experience in field logistics, operations, or deployments. - Basic tech troubleshooting and configuration knowledge. - Strong organizational skills and resilience under pressure. - Field readiness—able to travel frequently, often to rural areas. - Must be in Tanzania. Work Environment This is a hybrid role with significant in-person requirements. While some responsibilities can be performed remotely, the role demands regular presence on the ground to build relationships, oversee implementation, and liaise with local stakeholders. At the same time, given the high degree of virtual collaboration with colleagues and partners across multiple geographies, the successful candidate must be highly self-driven, comfortable working in small in-person teams while contributing to larger efforts virtually, and disciplined in using online collaboration tools and video conferencing to maintain constant communication.
