JOB DESCRIPTION: CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICER

ABOUT SNEHA

A secular, Mumbai-based non-profit organisation, SNEHA believes that investing in women's health is essential
to building viable urban communities. SNEHA is 500+ person strong, innovative and progressive organization
that works on health and nutrition in urban slum pockets with women and their families. SNEHA follows the
life-cycle approach to health and nutrition, by intervening at critical junctures (adolescence, preconception,
conception, pregnancy, postnatal, infancy and toddlerhood, family planning) to ensure improved health and
nutritional outcomes for women and children living in some of Mumbai’s most vulnerable and deprived slums
and in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region (MMR) as well.

SNEHA recognises that, in order to improve urban health standards, our initiatives must target both care
seekers and care providers. We work with communities residing in informal settlements to empower women
and communities to be catalysts of change in their own right and collaborate with existing public health
systems and health care providers to create sustainable improvements in urban health.

SNEHA has been at the forefront of using technology as an enabler of it’s program and domain functioning.
Over the years, the organization has invested in technology through new systems, devices and capacity building
to support the growth of the organization.

For the next stage of its growth it is looking at technology as a driver and an enabler both for increasing
internal organization effectiveness as well as to scale program impact, optimize resources and explore
solutions where communities / beneficiaries have access to information and/or data.
