Recognising the critical role of robust and scalable digital solutions in supporting Early Childhood Development (ECD) and parenting programmes, Centre of Excellence Nairobi (CoE) is seeking a Bebbo Technology Consultant (Mobile) to provide full-cycle technical support to the Bebbo parenting app and its sister applications. This role combines ongoing responsibility for the maintenance, management, and evolution of the current Bebbo platform, while also contributing technically to the design, development and roll-out of Bebbo 2.0, the next-generation version of the platform. Bebbo is a UNICEF-supported, free, open-source mobile parenting app recognised as a Digital Public Good. It provides parents and caregivers of children aged 0–6 with trusted, evidence-based guidance and interactive tools in local languages, accessible both online and offline. The app is available on Android and iOS and is integrated with a Drupal-based Content Management System (CMS) that supports a multi-site architecture for country-level customisation. Since its launch, Bebbo has reached over 1.8 million users across more than 21 countries, with additional rollouts planned in five more countries. As Bebbo enters a new phase of strategic development, the consultant will be responsible for ensuring both the day-to-day stability of the platform and its ongoing technical evolution. This includes leading mobile development, supporting multiple UNICEF Country Offices, and contributing to the implementation of Bebbo 2.0’s expanded architecture and feature set.
