The Ministry of Health (MOH) through its Directorate General of Disease Prevention & Control is the Principal Recipient (PR) for the Global Fund’s HIV/AIDS, TB, and Malaria grants. Since 2007, UNDP has partnered with the Ministry of Health of Indonesia to provide technical assistance to the Ministry aimed at supporting successful implementation of The Global Fund grants in the country. Among the critical components of the partnership between UNDP and the Ministry of Health (MoH) is towards supporting and strengthening the access for affordable health technology, leveraging UNDP international procurement capacity, as well as streamlined the standardized processes through integrated information management system.
Based on the Grand Design of SILNAS (2023) and the mandate of the Director General of Public Health (HK.02.02/B/865/2022), as approved by the Global Fund, UNDP is facilitating the Ministry of Health to develop an Integrated National Health Laboratory Information System (SILNAS). This system is a critical pillar in the digital transformation of Indonesia’s health system, aiming to integrate and interconnect all health laboratories across the country with the National Health Information System (SIKN/Satu Sehat). The success of this critical national project hinges on robust technical infrastructure, advanced security protocols, and seamless integration of existing systems.
To achieve these objectives, UNDP is seeking a highly skilled and experienced IT Infrastructure Analyst with proven experience in implementing and managing IT infrastructure within health sector environments. The Analyst will be responsible for ensuring the reliability, scalability, and security of SILNAS infrastructure components, including cloud and on-premises (datacenter) environments, network communications, information security, and server monitoring throughout the implementation and operational phases of the SILNAS project.
Under the supervision of Advisor for Health Governance, the IT Analyst (Infrastructure Analyst for Silnas) will be working closely with the IT experts, National Project Directors (Director of Takel-PKP of MOH) and the technical team within the Data and Information Center of MOH. S/he will also be responsible to build good partnership and communication with the Head of the Steering Committee on SILNAS, the TA support on SILNAS (i.e. Association of Public Health Laboratory), and the developer of SILNAS (i.e.assigned local vendor), to ensure that the SILNAS infrastructure is built based on the needs of the country and aligned with the National Strategic Plan.
