Onja is a social enterprise training underprivileged youth into world-class software developers.

We find the brightest students in Madagascar who can't afford to continue their education and train them in English language and software development. After two-and-a-half years they are ready to work as remote front-end software developers in international tech teams.

Once in a job, our developers earn a good salary that helps them support their families and pay forward the opportunity to a new wave of students. They unlock exciting careers that fulfil their potential, and accelerate the development of their nation (see "How Onja Works" below).

Our first cohort, "Wave 1", consists of nineteen talented and committed graduates who are now working remotely for our partner companies in Europe and the US. With this immensely successful first cohort, and a proven social model, our goal is now to scale our impact: we aim to take on 360 new students over the next four years.

Our fast-growing team is very united, committed to the mission, and hardworking, but we also maintain a relaxed and peaceful atmosphere that you'll find everywhere in Madagascar.

Onja is in Toamasina, a lively city with beautiful beaches, nice restaurants and plenty to do and see. Toamasina is Madagascar's second-largest city (population 300,000) yet is surrounded by plenty of natural beauty and even has a national park nearby.

The Operations Officer ensures processes are followed and continuously improved within their Operations key area (such as Administration, Facility and Equipment Management, Procurement, or Inventory), coordinates with the Operations Manager and team to optimize efficiency and support Onja's overall goals.

We believe in hiring based on skills, attitude and cultural fit rather than specific qualifications.

Your responsibilities will include:
- Overseeing specific operation key areas such as administration, facility and equipment management, procurement and logistics, or inventory.
- Coordinating with the Operations Lead and other departments to ensure smooth daily operations.
- Ensuring compliance with regulations and internal processes.
- Driving continuous improvement initiatives to enhance operational efficiency.
- Collaborating with local authorities and stakeholders.

Candidates can anticipate that reference checks will be conducted as part of our thorough evaluation process.
