Subject: [liberationtech] CTO @ One Acre Fund

One Acre Fund is a social enterprise working across 10 countries in Eastern and 
Southern Africa serving 800,000+ farm families. One Acre Fund supplies 
smallholder farmers with the financing and training they need to grow their way 
out of hunger and poverty. Instead of giving handouts, we invest in farmers to 
generate a gain in farm income.

We believe that innovative technology is the key to scale and to building the 
most efficient and effective rural distribution network on the African 
continent. Today, we reach 800,000 farm families; and we aspire to serve more 
than 10 million households in the coming decade. Our future tech vision and 
strategy focuses on a mobile tech transformation: equipping our 5,000+ field 
staff with the mobile-based tools to reach more farmers efficiently; developing 
scalable, direct communication channels with farmers (USSD and SMS) to improve 
customer service; and digitizing and decentralizing data collection tools to 
speed up data flows and improve efficiency.

We are looking for an exceptional professional with the technical experience 
and strong execution skills to bring this vision to life. In this leadership 
role, the CTO will transform our technology into a core organizational 
strength. In this role, you will oversee several technology departments: 
software development, architecture, IT operations, product management, 
enterprise solution management, and business intelligence.

Country Director in Malawi. He'll be happy to answer any questions and guide
