Call for Co-Founder / Technical Partner – HealthTech Innovation in Tanzania

I am a medical doctor and public health informatician, currently working with Africa CDC, with a strong vision to build a technology-driven healthcare company that addresses real health system challenges in Tanzania and Africa.

The Vision

To design and scale context-aware, impactful health technologies that apply:

  • Artificial Intelligence (AI)
  • Data Science & Machine Learning
  • Robotics / automation (where relevant)
  • Digital health systems & analytics

The focus will be on solving real clinical and public health problems in low- and middle-income settings not building tech for its own sake.

Who I'm Looking For

A technical co-founder / partner with background or strong interest in one or more of the following:

  • Data Science / Machine Learning / AI
  • Software engineering (backend, cloud, data pipelines)
  • Robotics / automation (healthcare or lab systems is a plus)
  • Health informatics or applied AI in health

You don't need to know everything but you should be:

  • Curious and driven
  • Comfortable building from scratch
  • Willing to learn healthcare realities
  • Motivated by impact, not just titles
  • Open to long-term partnership and shared ownership

Early-career scientists, graduate students, or self-taught innovators are welcome.

What This Is (and Is Not)

This is:

  • A partnership / co-founder opportunity
  • Shared vision, shared ownership, shared growth
  • Early-stage: idea → prototype → pilot → scale

This is NOT:

  • A traditional salaried job (at least initially)
  • A short-term consulting role

What I Bring

  • Clinical (MD) and public health (MPH) expertise
  • Hands-on experience in public health informatics
  • Deep understanding of African health systems
  • Access to real-world problems, stakeholders, and networks
  • Commitment to building something meaningful and sustainable
