Job description

Build a career with impact. Working at the World Bank Group (WBG) provides a unique opportunity to help countries solve their greatest development challenges. As one of the largest sources of funding and knowledge for developing countries, the WBG is a unique partnership of five global institutions dedicated to ending poverty, increasing shared prosperity, and promoting sustainable development. With 189 member countries and more than 120 offices worldwide, the WBG works with public and private sector partners, investing in groundbreaking projects and using data, research, and technology to develop solutions to the most urgent global challenges.

The DPI & Services Team works across Digital Public Infrastructure, whole-of-government digital transformation for service delivery in Low- and Middle-Income Countries. Data exchange is a foundational layer of this agenda - enabling services across institutional boundaries. The team is seeking a Digital Government Interoperability and Data Exchange Specialist to bring hands-on technical and architectural depth to its portfolio. 
 
Position Summary 
The Senior Digital Government Interoperability and Data Sharing Specialist will support governments in designing, implementing, and scaling interoperability and data sharing capabilities that improve public service delivery, strengthen digital public infrastructure, and enable whole-of-government digital transformation. 

The position requires a highly experienced practitioner with a strong technology or engineering background and a proven track record of delivering government interoperability and system integration initiatives. The successful candidate will combine technical expertise with an understanding of government service delivery, institutional arrangements, and digital transformation. 

The specialist will provide vendor-neutral advice and support governments throughout the full project lifecycle, from diagnosis, strategy and architecture design to procurement, implementation, and operationalization. 

Key Responsibilities 
  Advisory on design, implementation and scaling. Diagnose country data exchange landscapes (current state, governance, institutional readiness, technical maturity) and design target architectures and roadmaps, positioned against the team's services-first framework and maturity-ladder model.  
  Operational support. Backstop Task Team Leaders on lending operations and ASA engagements involving data exchange components through reviewing or drafting technical specifications, procurement documents, terms of reference and providing implementation support, and periodic operational reviews.  
  Knowledge products. Lead or contribute to flagship deliverables on data exchange, data sharing, governance, and sectoral exchange patterns; contribute to the team's broader DPI knowledge agenda.  
  Architecture and standards. Develop and maintain reference architectures, technical patterns, and standards guidance for data exchange. Advise on integration of registries, digital identity systems, security by design principles, including identity access management, trust services, payment systems, and digital service platforms. Track technology evolution, including verifiable credentials, federated approaches, and sectoral exchanges.  
  Life-events based service transformation. Facilitate data alignment across agencies to support whole-of-government digital service delivery and life-event-based service transformation. 
  Stakeholder engagement. Translate between service owners, platform owners, and legal/governance counterparts. Engage government clients, development partners, and technical communities.  
  Team representation. Represent the team in technical fora, partnership discussions, and cross-Practice initiatives
