Analytics Engineer

Irembo is a technology company that designs and develops digital products to ease the accessibility of services in users’ everyday lives worldwide, starting with Rwanda. Our pioneer products, IremboGov and IremboPay, have enabled Rwandan citizens and foreigners to access and pay for over 150 public services online through our one-stop-shop e-governance and payment platforms. To date, we have facilitated over 30 million transactions through our platforms and have ambitious goals to scale our technology worldwide to enable more governments and institutions to serve their citizens better. More information is available on irembo.com.

Our flagship platforms, IremboGov and IremboPay, have transformed how government services are accessed and paid for, proving our ability to simplify complex processes and enhance public engagement.

We are now bringing the same innovation to healthcare to ensure every Rwandan has access to efficient, high-quality digital health services. Building on the legacy of Babyl Rwanda, which introduced telemedicine in 2016 and delivered over 3.5 million consultations in seven years through USSD and voice calls, and was integrated with health facilities for diagnostics, prescriptions, and referrals.

Our first step is the launch of a national-scale telemedicine platform, designed to expand access and convenience, enabling services that can only be better delivered via telemedicine, such as remote consultations, chronic disease management, and preventive care follow-ups. It also sets a new paradigm for healthcare delivery by leveraging advanced technologies, including AI, to improve diagnosis, personalize care, and optimize health system efficiency.
