The project

Fundação Ariel Glaser implements the FADM READY project in Mozambique, funded by the United States Government through its Department of War.

What you will do

This position manages the project's technological infrastructure end-to-end. Plan, implement, and supervise the administration of networks, computers, servers, systems, and devices; ensure availability and performance across the entire fleet; deploy cybersecurity measures, access control, malware protection, backups, and data recovery.

Manage user accounts and permissions, install and update authorized software, and maintain an up-to-date IT asset inventory. Resolve technical incidents reported by the team within established deadlines, and provide direct support to system users.

Support the selection and procurement of equipment, computer software, and technology services, ensuring everything is properly configured and secured.
