Result of Service<br>Evaluations at ESCWA strive to demonstrate the difference made by its work and its impact on member States and their citizens. This evaluation will aim to determine how the work undertaken in road safety project contributed to achieving its intended results, the pathway to these results, and the elements that contributed most significantly to their achievement. It will also consider any unintended results — positive or negative — that emerged during implementation. The evaluation will serve three main purposes: • Evidence-based decision-making: Provide a foundation for strategic planning and risk management. • Accountability: Demonstrate performance and results to ESCWA’s Executive and member States, in line with the Commission’s mandate. • Organizational learning: Identify lessons learned and actionable recommendations to strengthen future ESCWA projects in road safety.<br> Work Location<br>Remote / Hybrid<br> Expected duration<br>2 months<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>1. Background and Objective Road safety outcomes are greatly influenced by the design of the road infrastructure. Safe and inclusive road infrastructure design provides a forgiving road environment and supports at the same time the development of sustainable cities, low carbon transport, and good health and well-being by ensuring adequate infrastructure for non-motorized transport. Despite being the least motorized region, the African continent has the highest road traffic fatality rates in the world - 26.6 per 100,000 people - according to the latest WHO Global Status report. This translates in hundreds of daily deaths, nearly half of which involve vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists. The African States have clearly identified as a priority in the “Africa Road Safety Charter” the need to “… technically classify roads according to the functions they serve. Road Designs must reflect the design norms and standards of their respective classification and intended functions". And “…shall ensure that infrastructure for Non- Motorised Traffic is incorporated as priority requirements within the design of all classes of roads, especially in the urban and rural roads context". Yet, as documented by the EU Safer Africa project, in most of the African countries, road geometric design standards and manuals are obsolete and focusing only on motorised transport (cars, trucks, vans). Despite stated commitment to the safe system approach, the region still lacks the understanding that providing adequate levels of safety and accessibility to all road users means also fighting poverty, boosting economy, reducing inequality, and fighting climate change by promoting the use of non-motorised transport. This project aims to fill that gap and to provide a concrete answer to those needs by : 1. supporting revision of road design standards/manuals in 3 target countries (Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal) and through them promote a coordinated and regional approach to revision of standards/manuals which would be highly beneficial especially with reference to corridors in the framework of the Trans-African Highways network ; 2. Building the understanding around the importance of providing safe road infrastructure for all road users and the inherent capacity to design and deliver safe roads. The project focus countries recognise that road design standards and practices in the region are often outdated in terms of road safety engineering principles, are inconsistent, and do not reflect international good practice. They also acknowledge the lack of the required competencies to design safe and inclusive roads. According to the latest Global Status Report on Road Safety the road traffic death rate number per 100,000 in Morocco, Mauritania and Senegal is respectively: 19.6, 23.4 and 27.7. For the three target countries, latest available figures show that roughly 60% of those deaths happen on inter-urban roads. Thus the urgent need to revise road design standards, manuals and guidelines so as to eliminate or minimize risks for all road users. 2. Duties and Responsibilities Purpose of the Evaluation Evaluations at ESCWA strive to demonstrate the difference made by its work and its impact on member States and their citizens. This evaluation will aim to determine how the work undertaken in road safety project contributed to achieving its intended results, the pathway to these results, and the elements that contributed most significantly to their achievement. It will also consider any unintended results — positive or negative — that emerged during implementation. The evaluation will serve three main purposes: • Evidence-based decision-making: Provide a foundation for strategic planning and risk management. • Accountability: Demonstrate performance and results to ESCWA’s Executive and member States, in line with the Commission’s mandate. • Organizational learning: Identify lessons learned and actionable recommendations to strengthen future ESCWA projects in road safety. The evaluation will be conducted in accordance with ESCWA’s Evaluation Policy (2025) and the UNEG Norms and Standards for Evaluation. It will integrate best practices for promoting gender equality, human rights, disability inclusion, and environmental sustainability. Scope of the Evaluation The evaluation will be forward-looking and will objectively and systematically assess the performance of the project in terms of its relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainability. Furthermore, the evaluation will assess the extent to which gender, human rights, disability inclusion, environmental concerns, and other cross-cutting issues were incorporated or mainstreamed into the project. The evaluation will cover the period from March 2023 to December 2026. Evaluation Criteria The following key evaluation questions per criteria will guide the evaluation. The evaluator is expected to refine evaluation questions where necessary and to include the refinement in the Inception Report. Relevance • How did the project team determine the strategic needs and priorities of member States in its project design? • How were the intended results of the project aligned with the strategic needs and priorities of member States, the sustainable development goals, and national and regional development agendas? • How were the identified results aligned with other stakeholders’ strategic needs and priorities? • How was the log frame translated to ensure that the activities carried out were relevant and contributed to achievement of the intended result(s)? • How were planned and implemented activities designed and sequenced to ensure a conscious consideration of the intended result? Effectiveness • What evidence is available to support the achievement of the results identified? • Which of the activities undertaken by the project team directly contributed to the identified results? How did these activities contribute to the results? • To what degree can the achievement of results be attributed to the intervention? • How did the work of stakeholders contribute to the achievement of the identified results? • Which other factors have contributed to the achievement of the identified results? • Would the results have been achieved regardless of the project being implemented? • How were key partnerships integrated in the delivery of the project to maximise the achievement of results? Efficiency • Were the planned activities considered and delivered with the end results in mind? How did this shape the process? • What, if any, adjustments were made during the project to optimize the achievement of results? • What, if any, considerations were made in terms of the most efficient way of delivering activities (choice of modality, expertise available, etc.) • To what extent were partnerships leveraged and/or enhanced to utilize additional strategic expertise? Impact • What, if any, high-level effects did the project cause (such as changes in norms or systems)? • How did the project ensure that all the intended target groups, including the most disadvantaged and vulnerable, benefitted equally from the intervention? • How transformative was the project – did it create enduring changes in norms – including gender norms – and systems, whether intended or not? • To what extent did the intervention lead to other changes, including “scalable” or “replicable” results? Sustainability • Given a similar context, could the identified results of the project be replicated? • Which of the activities identified as contributing to the identified results of the project provided ongoing benefits for stakeholders? • What evidence is available to indicate that the results of the project can be maintained by stakeholders? Gender, Human Rights, Disability Inclusion, and Environmental Issues • To what extent were issues of gender, human rights, disability inclusion, and the environment incorporated into the design, planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation practices of the project, as well as the results achieved? To what extent did the project respond to and affected the rights, needs and interests of different stakeholders, including women, men, youth, people with disabilities and other marginalized groups? Evaluation Methodology The evaluator is expected to identify the main results achieved through the project, as established by both the project team and key stakeholders, and develop a Theory of Change (ToC) for these results. The causal links postulated in the ToC should then be used to theorise a plausible causal mechanism, which should be tested using all available evidence, to evaluate the influence of ESCWA’s work on results achieved through the project. The evaluator is expected to ensure a mixed method (qualitative and quantitative), inclusive and participatory approach, with adequate triangulation across methods, to arrive at credible, reliable, and unbiased findings. The evaluator will also ensure that all aspects of the evaluation are gender and human rights sensitive (including a special focus on the rights with person with disabilities). In addition, the evaluator must ensure that they always comply with the UNEG Ethical Guidelines for Evaluation during the conduct of the evaluation. The above methodology is indicative. The evaluator is expected to build upon it and present a robust evaluation methodology within the inception report, including addressing and refining the evaluation questions. Management and Governance Arrangements SPARK will oversee management of the evaluation through an evaluation officer/s, who will act as the evaluation manager/s. This role will include recruiting the evaluator/s; serving as the main port-of-call for the evaluator/s and for internal and external stakeholders; recording the feedback of the project team and effectively integrating it into the evaluation exercise; monitoring the budget and the correct implementation of the work-plan; ensuring quality assurance; etc. The support of the organization and project’s senior management is key for the success of the evaluation, particularly during the recruitment of the evaluator/s, collection of documents for desk review, identification of stakeholders and arrangement of interviews, focus groups or surveys. Quality Assurance Mechanism The evaluator will employ a quality assurance mechanism of her/his preference (either an internal or an external system can be used), which will provide quality checks throughout the evaluation process. This quality assurance mechanism will be indicated in the Inception Report and in the Final Evaluation Report. In addition, ESCWA will review the evaluation report prior to finalization to ensure that it aligns with the UNEG Quality Checklist for Evaluation Reports , particularly with reference to the quality of recommendations. Evaluation Ethics The evaluation will be conducted in accordance with the principles outlined in the UNEG Ethical Guidelines for Evaluation; and all rights and confidentiality of information providers will be prioritized and safeguarded as per UNEG Ethical Guidelines for Evaluation.<br> Qualifications/special skills<br>A Master's degree in management, evaluation, or related area is required.

Evaluation of Enhancing MSMEs soft infrastructure & internationalisation in countries facing security, financial, or political transition challenges in the Arab Region
Research & Development
<h2 class="h5">Job description</h2>

Background and Objective The Arab region's economic landscape heavily relies on micro-, small-, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs), which represent over 90% of all businesses in the region and employ a large part of the population.1 These enterprises are integral to fostering sustainable and inclusive growth, driving innovation, and promoting gender equality. However, their potential is hindered by challenges such as limited access to finance, complex regulatory environments, lack of skilled labor, and political instability, all exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. In Djibouti, the economy's heavy reliance on port activities underscores the pressing need for more comprehensive economic support, particularly in diversifying beyond these sectors. Meanwhile, Egyptian MSMEs are grappling with fragmented strategies and complex regulatory barriers, creating a challenging landscape for growth. Concurrently, in Iraq, the long-standing legacy of conflict and ongoing political instability significantly impede entrepreneurial progress. Similarly, Lebanon’s MSME sector faces severe impacts due to the country's economic collapse, compounded by political unrest and infrastructural challenges post-Beirut blast. Moreover, in Palestine, the unrelenting conflict directly impairs its business environment, creating hurdles for economic stability. Furthermore, Somalia's political instability, coupled with inadequate infrastructure, poses significant challenges to the growth of MSMEs. In Sudan, continuous warfare and economic uncertainty are major obstacles hindering the development of SMEs. Similarly, over a decade of conflict in Syria has drastically affected its business environment. Additionally, Tunisia's MSME sector is struggling amidst political instability and slow economic growth, highlighting the need for more targeted support. Lastly, the protracted conflict in Yemen has created a highly challenging environment, greatly affecting the potential for business growth in the region. The project's primary focus is on enhancing soft infrastructure and promoting the internationalization of MSMEs in the Arab region. Soft infrastructure, including essential non-physical aspects like regulatory frameworks and trade agreements, is crucial for creating a conducive business environment. This aspect facilitates smoother operations and compliance with international standards. By addressing non-physical aspects of soft infrastructure, the project contributes to building the necessary foundation for MSMEs to thrive in the global market. Internationalization involves expanding MSME operations beyond local markets, introducing them to regional as well as global trade and commerce. This expansion is pivotal for opening new markets and fostering global competitiveness among these enterprises. The strategy draws upon the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia's (ESCWA) experience in developing supportive environments for MSMEs, as evidenced by initiatives like the SMEs Digital Enabling Portal for the Arab Region (DEPAR). Capitalizing on ESCWA's previous successes, such as the "Improving the performance of SMEs in the Arab region" project and the Arab SMEs Summit, this project aims to advance MSMEs' soft infrastructure and internationalization. The objective is to enhance access, visibility, capabilities, competitiveness, and sustainability of MSMEs in the Arab region. By aligning with the Belt and Road Initiative’s (BRI) vision of interconnected economic growth, the project seeks to empower MSMEs to become integral players in the global economic landscape. The project, with its emphasis on enhancing the soft infrastructure and promoting internationalization of MSMEs in the Arab region, aligns closely with and contributes to the objectives of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. It contributes directly to specific Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly SDG 8: Decent Work and Economic Growth, and SDG 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, while also indirectly impacting other SDGs. 2.

Evaluation of Extra Budget Project – To enhance the operationalization of the “Climate/SDGs Debt Swap – Donor Nexus Initiative”
Research & Development
<h2 class="h5">Job description</h2>
<div class="t-break" data-jb-field="description">
Result of Service<br>Evaluations at ESCWA strive to demonstrate the difference made by its work and its impact on member States and their citizens. This evaluation will aim to determine how the work undertaken in debt swap project contributed to achieving its intended results, the pathway to these results, and the elements that contributed most significantly to their achievement. It will also consider any unintended results — positive or negative — that emerged during implementation.<br> Work Location<br>Remotely<br> Expected duration<br>4 Months<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>1. Background and Objective Fiscal stress is high for most of the Arab Middle-Income Countries (MICs) that are suffering from high debt burdens and for the Arab Least Developed Countries (LDCs) that rely heavily on aid and external debt finance. While increasing revenue, mobilization remains a challenge for most countries in the region, the high share of revenues being spent on debt servicing further limits fiscal space for expenditures on development needs, especially for addressing vulnerabilities to climate risks, economic shocks and progressing on the SDGs for the poorest and the most vulnerable populations. This is particularly concerning since the region faces a dual challenge in climate finance flows: the quantity and the quality (composition) of climate finance received does not meet the region’s needs and priorities.2 Existing financing flows are also unequally distributed among Arab countries. In addition, climate finance mobilization is more difficult for countries that face high fiscal stress and require greater concessionally and grant finance. The adverse impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, recent interest rate hikes, inflationary pressures and the war in Ukraine add to the pressure on public budgets, especially for those middle-income countries who are honoring debt service payments and are ineligible to benefit from the G20 debt service suspension initiative or the common framework of debt treatment.3 Given this background, member States need to consider innovative instruments of financing, such as ESCWA’s “Climate/SDGs Debt Swap – Donor Nexus Initiative4”. Launched in December 2020, the ESCWA’s “Climate/SDGs Debt Swap – Donor Nexus Initiative” aims to help countries reduce external debt service burdens and generate fiscal space for investing in climate action while accelerating the implementation of the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda. The Initiative in particular focuses on the region’s middle-income countries who do not face unsustainable debt burdens, but who have high debt service burdens that limit fiscal space to finance climate action and SDGs. A debt swap converts national debt-serving payments on foreign debt into domestic investment for implementing climate-resilient projects through collaborative arrangements between debtors, creditors and donors. For debtor countries, it provides relief from the payment of debt service, while increasing sustainable public investment in climate/SDGs-debt-swap programme that advances the SDGs and the Paris Agreement. For creditors, the amount of the debt swap allocated for climate-resilient projects advances meeting climate finance pledges/official development assistance disbursement, while also ensures debtor’s expenditure commitment to climate action/ SDGs through public budgets. While debt swaps are not a novel concept, the ESCWA’s Initiative looks beyond traditional approaches to debt-for-nature swap5. The Initiative has the potential to achieve a transformational impact as it employs a pioneering approach that (a) links the Initiative to a Key Performance Indicators (KPI) Framework for selection, monitoring and evaluation of climate/SDGs programme; (b) establishes an inter-ministerial Task Force to develop the nationally owned Climate/SDGs Debt Swap Programmes; and (c) brings in the CSO perspective by ensuring their participation throughout the process. The goal of the project is to enhance the operationalization of “Debt Swap – Donor Nexus Initiative” towards improving climate action and economic justice to accelerate the implementation of the Paris Agreement and the 2030 Agenda. To achieve this goal, the project has articulated three Specific Objectives: 1. National and international development actors in selected Arab States are better able to mobilize finance for Climate/SDGs Debt Swap Programmes 2. National actors have enhanced capacity to monitor and evaluate Climate/SDGs Debt Swap Programmes in accordance with a KPI Framework 3. Governments across the region and elsewhere have increased awareness to develop and monitor Climate/SDGs Debt Swap Programmes 2. Duties and Responsibilities Purpose of the Evaluation Evaluations at ESCWA strive to demonstrate the difference made by its work and its impact on member States and their citizens. This evaluation will aim to determine how the work undertaken in debt swap project contributed to achieving its intended results, the pathway to these results, and the elements that contributed most significantly to their achievement. It will also consider any unintended results — positive or negative — that emerged during implementation. The evaluation will serve three main purposes: • Evidence-based decision-making: Provide a foundation for strategic planning and risk management. • Accountability: Demonstrate performance and results to ESCWA’s Executive and member States, in line with the Commission’s mandate. • Organizational learning: Identify lessons learned and actionable recommendations to strengthen future ESCWA projects in debt swap and innovative financing instruments. The evaluation will be conducted in accordance with ESCWA’s Evaluation Policy (2025) and the UNEG Norms and Standards for Evaluation. Scope of the Evaluation The evaluation will be forward-looking and will objectively and systematically assess the performance of the project in terms of its relevance, coherence, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainability. Furthermore, the evaluation will assess the extent to which gender, human rights, disability inclusion, environmental concerns, and other cross-cutting issues were incorporated or mainstreamed into the project. The evaluation will cover the period from 1 April 2023 to 31 December 2026, and will capture any project activities conducted in Q1 2027. Evaluation Criteria The following key evaluation questions per criteria will guide the evaluation. The evaluator is expected to refine evaluation questions where necessary and to include the refinement in the Inception Report. Relevance • How did the project team determine the strategic needs and priorities of member States in its project design? • How were the intended results of the project aligned with the strategic needs and priorities of member States, the sustainable development goals, and national and regional development agendas? • How were the identified results aligned with other stakeholders’ strategic needs and priorities? • How was the log frame translated to ensure that the activities carried out were relevant and contributed to achievement of the intended result(s)? • How were planned and implemented activities designed and sequenced to ensure a conscious consideration of the intended result? Effectiveness • What evidence is available to support the achievement of the results identified? • Which of the activities undertaken by the project team directly contributed to the identified results? How did these activities contribute to the results? • To what degree can the achievement of results be attributed to the intervention? • How did the work of stakeholders contribute to the achievement of the identified results? • Which other factors have contributed to the achievement of the identified results? • Would the results have been achieved regardless of the project being implemented? • How were key partnerships integrated in the delivery of the project to maximise the achievement of results? Efficiency • Were the planned activities considered and delivered with the end results in mind? How did this shape the process? • What, if any, adjustments were made during the project to optimize the achievement of results? • What, if any, considerations were made in terms of the most efficient way of delivering activities (choice of modality, expertise available, etc.) • To what extent were partnerships leveraged and/or enhanced to utilize additional strategic expertise? Impact • What, if any, high-level effects did the project cause (such as changes in norms or systems)? • How did the project ensure that all the intended target groups, including the most disadvantaged and vulnerable, benefitted equally from the intervention? • How transformative was the project – did it create enduring changes in norms – including gender norms – and systems, whether intended or not? • To what extent did the intervention lead to other changes, including “scalable” or “replicable” results? Sustainability • Given a similar context, could the identified results of the project be replicated? • Which of the activities identified as contributing to the identified results of the project provided ongoing benefits for stakeholders? • What evidence is available to indicate that the results of the project can be maintained by stakeholders? Gender, Human Rights, Disability Inclusion, and Environmental Issues • To what extent were issues of gender, human rights, disability inclusion, and the environment incorporated into the design, planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation practices of the project, as well as the results achieved? Evaluation Methodology The evaluator is expected to identify the main results achieved through the project, as established by both the project team and key stakeholders, and develop a Theory of Change (ToC) for these results. The causal links postulated in the ToC should then be used to theorise a plausible causal mechanism, which should be tested using all available evidence, to evaluate the influence of ESCWA’s work on results achieved through the project. The evaluator is expected to ensure a mixed method (qualitative and quantitative), inclusive and participatory approach, with adequate triangulation across methods, to arrive at credible, reliable, and unbiased findings. The evaluator will also ensure that all aspects of the evaluation are gender and human rights sensitive (including a special focus on the rights with person with disabilities). In addition, the evaluator must ensure that they always comply with the UNEG Ethical Guidelines for Evaluation during the conduct of the evaluation. The above methodology is indicative. The evaluator is expected to build upon it and present a robust evaluation methodology within the inception report, including addressing and refining the evaluation questions. Management and Governance Arrangements SPARK will oversee management of the evaluation through an evaluation officer/s, who will act as the evaluation manager/s. This role will include recruiting the evaluator/s; serving as the main port-of-call for the evaluator/s and for internal and external stakeholders; recording the feedback of the project team and effectively integrating it into the evaluation exercise; monitoring the budget and the correct implementation of the work-plan; ensuring quality assurance; etc. The support of the organization and project’s senior management is key for the success of the evaluation, particularly during the recruitment of the evaluator/s, collection of documents for desk review, identification of stakeholders and arrangement of interviews, focus groups or surveys.

<span>Aspire Software is looking for a Senior Software Developer to join our team in Lebanon.<br> Here is a little window into our company: Aspire Software operates and manages wholly owned software companies, providing mission-critical solutions across multiple verticals.<br> By implementing industry best practices, Aspire delivers a time sensitive integration process, and the operation of a decentralized model has allowed it to become a hub for creating rapid growth by reinvesting in its portfolio.<br> About the Job: You will work closely with our Senior Integrations Engineer and within the Platform, Data and Security function, collaborating directly with external technical partners, internal product and engineering teams, and a codebase that spans modern TypeScript microservices and a mature .<br>NET API. Critically, you will be expected to use AI-enabled development workflows not as a productivity shortcut but as a genuine engineering methodology: taking loosely defined integration requirements and using Claude Code and agentic tooling to plan, refine, and deliver production-quality outcomes.<br> If you want to build things that matter, work in an environment that is serious about AI-native engineering, and grow your skills across a genuinely interesting technical domain, this is the role.<br> Key responsibilities Integration design and delivery Design, build, and maintain integrations between the NBI platform and third-party systems including POS providers, payment processors, CRM platforms, and marketing tools, using the target TypeScript and AWS Lambda microservices stack.<br> Own the full integration lifecycle for assigned partners: technical discovery, API contract design, build, testing, deployment, and ongoing reliability monitoring.<br> Work within our existing .<br>NET and SQL-based integration layer where required, reading and understanding legacy implementations to inform refactoring, extend capability, or resolve production issues without introducing regression.<br> Ensure all integrations are built to be robust, observable, and maintainable, with appropriate error handling, retry logic, and alerting in place from the start.<br> Technical partner engagement Engage directly with third-party technical teams to understand API contracts, negotiate integration approaches, and resolve ambiguities during implementation.<br> Represent NBI professionally in technical discussions with external partners, translating business requirements into clear integration specifications and surfacing risks or constraints early.<br> Document integration contracts, data flows, and operational runbooks clearly, ensuring the team can support and extend integrations beyond the initial build.<br> AI-enabled engineering and delivery quality Use Claude Code and agentic AI workflows as a core part of how you work: from decomposing a loosely defined integration requirement into a structured delivery plan, through scaffolding, iterative refinement, and test generation, to final production-ready output.<br> Apply strong engineering judgement to AI-generated output; you know how to verify correctness at integration boundaries, catch hallucinated API behaviour, and hold quality standards even when AI tooling is doing a large share of the drafting.<br> Contribute to the team's evolving norms around AI-augmented engineering: what works, what does not, where human judgement is non-negotiable, and how to structure tasks for reliable AIassisted execution.<br> Work within the Shape Up delivery model, engaging with pitches during shaping, committing to delivery within cycle, and surfacing scope or complexity concerns proactively rather than after the fact.<br> Collaborate closely with the QA function to ensure integrations are testable, with agreed acceptance criteria, contract tests, and monitoring in place before delivery is considered complete.<br> Use Linear, Notion, and GitLab as standard tooling across work tracking, documentation, and CI/CD.<br> About you You are an engineer who takes integration work seriously as a discipline, not just plumbing between systems.<br> You understand that the quality of an integration shows up in production at the worst possible moment, so you build with reliability and observability in mind from the start.<br> You are comfortable working across both modern serverless architectures and legacy codebases, and you communicate clearly enough with technical partners to get integrations right the first time rather than the third.<br> Equally important: you are an experienced practitioner of AI-native engineering.<br> You do not use Claude Code to autocomplete lines of code.<br> You use it to think through an approach, decompose ambiguous requirements into executable steps, generate and iterate on implementation, and produce output you are prepared to own and defend.<br> You have enough experience with agentic workflows to know their limits, and enough engineering rigour to close the gap where they fall short.<br> Excellent written and verbal English communication skills; able to engage with technical partners and internal teams across time zones with clarity and professionalism Strong commercial experience building and maintaining third-party integrations using REST APIs, webhooks, and event-driven patterns Solid Node.<br>js and TypeScript development experience, with the ability to build production-quality backend services and integrations independently Ability to read, understand, and work within a .<br>NET / C# codebase; you do not need to be a .<br>NET specialist, but you cannot be blocked by one Working knowledge of SQL and relational databases; comfortable writing and reviewing queries, understanding data access patterns, and reasoning about integration data flows Demonstrated experience using Claude Code or equivalent agentic AI tooling as a core part of your engineering workflow; able to take a loosely defined capability, structure it into a delivery plan using AI, and drive it through to production-quality output with appropriate verification at each stage Strong engineering judgement when working with AI-generated code; you know what to trust, what to verify, and what to rewrite, particularly at API boundaries and in integration-critical paths.<br> Strong attention to detail in API contract design, error handling, and edge-case coverage; integrations you build do not silently fail Highly desirable Hands-on experience with AWS Lambda and serverless architectures, including event-driven patterns and infrastructure-as-code tooling such as Terraform Experience integrating with POS systems, payment processors, or hospitality platforms in a commercial environment Familiarity with AI agent orchestration, prompt engineering for code generation tasks, and context management in multi-step agentic workflows Familiarity with observability tooling (Datadog or equivalent) for monitoring integration health, alerting on failures, and diagnosing production issues Experience working in Linear, Notion, and GitLab as a day-to-day engineering toolchain Experience working in Shape Up, Kanban, or other non-sprint delivery models with a strong sense of personal delivery accountability Exposure to multi-region or multi-market SaaS environments, where integration behaviour may vary by geography or partner configuration What's in it for you You will be working on integrations that restaurant operators depend on every day, at a moment when the team is actively rebuilding how those integrations work.<br> The shift from a complex legacy integration layer to a modern, event-driven microservices architecture is a genuine technical problem, and you will have real ownership of meaningful parts of it.<br> The work spans new partner onboarding into North America, the modernisation of existing POS and payment integrations, and an engineering culture that treats AI-native delivery as a first-class discipline.<br> If you want to grow your skills across serverless architecture, integration design, and agentic engineering on a platform that touches tens of thousands of venues, you will find genuine scope to do that here.<br> Why join us A team built on genuine care for the people we work with and the customers we serve.<br> We work remotely, we hold each other to a high standard, and we are committed to building a team that reflects the diversity of the communities and industries we serve.<br> We welcome applications from candidates of all backgrounds.<br></span> </div>

GENERAL SCOPE Open-source software policies provide a strategic framework governing how public institutions assess, procure, use, develop, reuse and share software whose source code can be inspected, modified and redistributed under an appropriate open licence. Their importance for sustainable development extends well beyond the possibility of avoiding licence fees. When properly implemented, such policies can reduce the duplication of public investments, facilitate interoperability among government systems, increase transparency and auditability, enable solutions to be adapted to local languages and needs, and reduce excessive dependence on individual technology suppliers. They can also allow governments, universities, local companies and civil society organizations to collaborate on shared digital solutions, thereby strengthening national technological capabilities, creating opportunities for small and medium-sized enterprises and supporting local digital employment. Open-source software solutions are particularly relevant to lower- and middle-income and crisis-affected countries because they can be reused and adapted rather than developed repeatedly from the beginning. The United Nations recognizes open-source software as an important category of digital public goods and calls for greater investment in such goods to advance the Sustainable Development Goals1. In this sense, open-source policies can contribute directly to SDG 9 on innovation and resilient infrastructure, SDG 16 on effective, accountable and inclusive institutions, and SDG 17 on partnerships, while also supporting digital services in health, education, social protection, agriculture and local government. Nevertheless, open-source adoption should not be treated as an automatic or purely cost-saving choice. Effective policies should address total cost of ownership, cybersecurity, software maintenance, licensing compliance, accessibility, data protection, documentation, technical support and long-term community governance. Several governments have institutionalized these principles. The European Commission’s Open Source Software Strategy promotes a “Think Open” approach through which European institutions are encouraged to use, share and contribute to open-source solutions, increase software reuse and strengthen technological control and collaboration across administrations. France has established a dedicated government open-source function, the code.gouv.fr platform and the Socle Interministériel de Logiciels Libres, a reference catalogue of open-source software recommended for use across the public administration. Within the Arab region, Saudi Arabia’s Digital Government Authority published a Free and Open-Source Government Software Strategy and an implementation guideline aimed at improving technology leadership, increasing efficiency in government IT spending, encouraging software and source-code reuse, and supporting the growth of the national digital economy. Egypt has also, since several years, adopted a national strategy supporting free and open-source software, while the Software Engineering Competence Center under the Information Technology Industry Development Agency serves as the government’s focal point for this field. For Palestine, an open-source software policy could become an important instrument for building affordable, resilient and nationally sustainable digital government. In a context of severe fiscal constraints and service-delivery arrangements, the systematic reuse of secure and proven software components could help reduce repeated development and licensing expenditure, while improving interoperability among ministries, municipalities and public institutions. Furthermore, requiring donor-funded digital projects to use open standards, provide adequate documentation and consider publication under suitable open-source licences could improve national ownership and prevent isolated systems from being abandoned after project financing ends. These benefits would require a phased implementation model based on an inventory of existing systems, open and interoperable technical standards, procurement rules that evaluate open-source and proprietary options fairly, security and privacy assessments, capacity-building programmes, and a central open-source programme office or coordination unit responsible for governance, licensing, reuse and sustainable maintenance. The United Nations is involved in enhancing the use of emerging technologies for sustainable development. In September 2024 during the Summit of the Future, world leaders adopted the Pact for the Future and its annexes: the Global Digital Compact (GDC) and Declaration on Future Generations. The GDC4 mandates UN Regional Commissions to provide support to Member States to advance digital transformation. Most recently, the Ministry of Telecoms and Digital Economy (MoTDE) in Palestine requested UN-ESCWA’s assistance to develop the national policy for open source software. The provision of this advisory service is the subject of these terms of reference. DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES The consultant shall propose to the designated ESCWA focal point a detailed version of the report outline. The proposed report should include the following sections: (1) Review best regional and international practices on Open-Source software policies, strategies and frameworks (at least 2 international and 2 regional practices); (2) Analyse the different existing policies and frameworks related to digital technologies in Palestine; (3) Review and further develop the draft National Open-Source Software Policy, including its technical annexes on Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Cloud Computing, ensuring consistency between the main policy and its annexes and alignment with relevant national, regional and international good practices (4) Conduct interviews with the various stakeholders and summarize their remarks and observations, including representatives of public and private sectors to better capture the needs of all segments of society; (5) Suggest a draft policy based on international and regional practices, the background doc and the conducted interviews/meetings; (6) Present the draft policy in a consultative workshop/meeting. (7) Update the policy based on received comments from ESCWA, MoTDE and other stakeholders participating in the workshop. ESCWA promotes gender equality and integration of youth through its publications and therefore the consultant should pay attention, with the help of ESCWA staff, to gender considerations and youth dimension throughout the research work and thereby ensure that the narrative language should be gender sensitive.<br> Qualifications/special skills<br>An advanced university degree in digital technologies, software engineering or a related field is required; a Ph.D. is desirable.

owned software companies, providing mission-critical solutions across multiple verticals.<br> By implementing industry best practices, Aspire delivers a time sensitive integration process, and the operation of a decentralized model has allowed it to become a hub for creating rapid growth by reinvesting in its portfolio.<br> Role Overview As a Technical Customer Support Specialist, you are often the first person a hotel contacts when something in its property management system is not working—sometimes during check-in and with guests waiting.<br> You will help customers use our software effectively, answer “how-to” questions, diagnose technical problems, and resolve issues across a broad range of hospitality products and integrations.<br> This includes explaining workflows, guiding users through configuration and operational tasks, reproducing reported problems, and determining whether an issue is related to data, configuration, permissions, an integration, or a software defect.<br> You will resolve as much as possible during the initial interaction.<br> When escalation is required, you will document the issue with enough evidence and context that the next person can continue the investigation without starting over.<br> Tickets are initially triaged and tagged through AI-assisted workflows.<br> You will assess that triage, correct it when necessary, review drafted responses, and take over the conversation whenever a customer needs direct assistance from a person.<br> What You Will Do Work the Shared Support Queue Pull tickets from the team’s shared queue, prioritize your workload based on severity, customer impact, and ticket age, and take ownership of each issue through resolution.<br> The team works toward shared service and open-ticket goals rather than relying only on individually assigned inboxes.<br> Support Customers Across Every Channel Provide support through phone, email, and chat.<br> Adjust your communication style to the situation, whether you are answering a straightforward software question or leading a live troubleshooting call with a hotel experiencing an urgent operational issue.<br> Answer Product and Workflow Questions Help customers understand how to use the software in their day-to-day hotel operations.<br> This includes explaining features, walking users through processes, helping with configuration, and identifying when a “how-to” question is actually the result of incorrect setup, missing permissions, or unexpected system behavior.<br> Work With AI-Assisted Support Tools Review AI-generated classifications and drafted responses before relying on them as our answer.<br> Correct intent, priority, sentiment, language, and product classifications when necessary, and suppress automated responses when they would be inappropriate, including security, legal, or previously escalated matters.<br> AI output is a starting point.<br> You remain accountable for the accuracy of the response and for confirming that the customer’s issue has been resolved.<br> Diagnose Issues Across Our Product Portfolio Support roommaster Cloud, roommaster Anywhere, our browser-based PMS, Booking Engine and Channel Manager, roommaster Payments, Caretaker/Eventory and many more.<br> Identifying the correct product, environment, database region, and affected workflow is often the first step in the diagnostic process.<br> Troubleshoot Integrations Investigate issues involving data moving between connected systems, such as: Availability not reaching an online travel agency Reservations not arriving in the PMS Rates or restrictions not updating Transactions missing from reports Third-party systems returning incomplete or unexpected data Use logs, audit trails, request and response data, and the behavior of both systems to determine where the handoff failed.<br> Support Card Payments and Terminals Assist with payment-terminal setup and connectivity, batch and settlement questions, refund, duplicate charges, tokenization, and processor-side issues.<br> Understand what can be addressed within roommaster and when the issue must be escalated to another internal team.<br> Support Distribution and OTA Connectivity Troubleshoot room and rate mapping, availability and restriction updates, and connections with platforms such as Booking.<br>com, Expedia, Agoda, and Airbnb.<br> Recognize the operational impact of distribution issues.<br> For example, a stalled availability update that could cause a hotel to oversell rooms requires a different response than a routine mapping question.<br> Maintain Accurate Support Records Ensure each ticket contains the correct: Ticket form and classification Customer organization and contact Product and product-automation fields Priority and severity Problem-versus-question classification Troubleshooting notes and supporting evidence Contacts must be associated with the correct organization, and all required information must be completed before a ticket is resolved.<br> Reduce Repeat Contact When the same question or issue appears repeatedly, help turn the solution into a reusable macro, internal procedure, Help Center article, training opportunity, or product improvement request.<br> Helping customers find answers more easily and preventing repeat issues are core parts of the role.<br> Participate in Our Global Support Schedule Our customers operate across North America, EMEA, and APAC.<br> Support follows a global, followthe-sun model, and this role participates in a shift rotation that includes weekend coverage.<br> At least one year of experience in technical support, application support, software support, or a comparable customer-facing technical role A structured diagnostic approach: reproduce the issue, isolate variables, form and test a hypothesis, and escalate with evidence Ability to distinguish among a product question, data issue, configuration problem, permissions issue, integration failure, and software defect Comfort using browser developer tools, including reviewing console errors and inspecting failed network requests Working knowledge of APIs and integrations, including HTTP status codes, request and response payloads, and webhooks Ability to reconstruct events using logs, audit trails, transaction histories, and customer conversations Strong written English and the ability to produce clear, accurate responses suitable for customers, hotel management, processors, vendors, and other stakeholders Clear and confident spoken English, including the ability to lead a live call with a customer experiencing a stressful operational issue Ability to manage and prioritize your workload without needing to be given a daily task list Strong ownership and follow-through, including confirming that the customer’s issue has been resolved Availability to participate in a shift rotation covering a 24/7 support struture Beneficial Experience Hotel front-desk, reservations, accounting, or back-office experience Experience with card payments or payment terminals, including Adyen, or another hotel or retail payment provider Experience with channel managers, booking engines, or OTA extranets Experience with Zendesk or a comparable ticketing platform SQL knowledge or experience building reports from a relational database Basic networking knowledge Ability to use AI-assisted tools effectively while critically evaluating their output for accuracy, relevance, tone, security, and appropriateness Experience supporting SaaS products or connected software platforms Hotel experience is valuable, but it is not required.<br> We can teach hospitality operations to someone who already has strong technical troubleshooting and customer communication skills.<br> What We Will Teach You How a Hotel Operates You will learn the daily hotel cycle, from reservations and arrivals through check-in, folio management, and night audit.<br> You will also learn hospitality terminology such as rate plans, availability and restrictions, no-shows, walk-ins, room moves, and overbooking.<br> Understanding hotel operations is essential to determining the true urgency and impact of an issue.<br> Why Certain Issues Are Emergencies A stalled availability update is not simply a data-sync problem—it may place a hotel at immediate risk of selling rooms it does not have.<br> You will learn which issues create operational or financial risk, how quickly that risk develops, and how to respond appropriately.<br> Our Products and Environments You will learn how properties are configured across our products, regions, integrations, and database environments, as well as how to identify the systems involved in a reported issue.<br> Payments from End to End You will learn how payment terminals, tokenization, authorization, batching, settlement, refunds, and payment processors interact—and, importantly, what data and processes Support must never access or modify.<br> Distribution and Connectivity You will learn how room and rate mapping works, how availability and restriction updates move between systems, and how major OTA extranets behave.<br> Escalation and Incident Management You will learn our escalation process, severity criteria, duplicate-ticket linking, documentation requirements, and communication expectations during active incidents.<br> How the Team Works Our Workload Follows Hotel Operations Support volume is heaviest on weekdays and typically peaks on Mondays as issues from the weekend are reported or followed up.<br> A typical weekday generates approximately 105 support tickets, while a weekend day generally generates 38–40.<br> These tickets are shared across the team.<br> AI Assists the Team AI helps classify, route, and prioritize tickets and can draft suggested responses.<br> Support specialists remain responsible for validating its output, applying judgment, and ensuring that the customer receives an accurate and complete resolution.<br> We Work as One Support Team The team shares responsibility for the queue and overall customer experience.<br> Collaboration is expected: team members help one another investigate issues, share product knowledge, and move difficult tickets toward resolution.<br> Success is not measured by individual ticket volume alone.<br> Performance Is Balanced Performance is

<h2 class="h5">Job description</h2><div class="t-break" data-jb-field="description"><span class="rtl" dir="rtl"> Result of Service<br>**Final Results of the Service** * Organize and implement a national workshop that forms a key basis for developing the National Guide, during the period from September to October 2026; * Prepare and complete the National Guide by the end of November 2026; * Prepare and provide inputs for a capacity-building program aimed at strengthening institutional and coordination mechanisms necessary for mainstreaming women's needs and priorities into sectoral and local policies and strategies, by the end of December 2026. .<br> Work Location<br>Remotely<br> Expected duration<br>5 months<br> Duties and Responsibilities<br>## Background In order to build fairer and more sustainable societies, it is essential to mainstream women's needs and priorities and empower them in sectoral and local policies and strategies. This ensures that laws are free from discrimination and bias, and that men and women have equal access to positions, services, assets, and information, thereby ensuring the rights of all members of society. Approaches to mainstreaming women's needs and priorities into policies and strategies, as well as in national institutions, have gained significant importance due to the immense changes witnessing in societies, particularly demographic dynamics, escalating economic and social challenges, climate change, and rapid technological advancement. Neglecting the adoption of systematic and deliberate government-led methods to verify the mainstreaming of women's needs and priorities into all policies and strategies and their empowerment exposes women to further marginalization, ignores their capabilities and potential, and misses significant opportunities for their effective contribution to economic and social development. The Government of Iraq has consistently affirmed that sustainable development can only be achieved if all segments of society contribute to it and benefit from its results and gains, especially the most vulnerable groups, primarily Iraqi women, who constitute half the population and play a pivotal role in building families and strengthening society. Based on this, and relying on the principle of citizenship stipulated in the 2005 Constitution of the Republic of Iraq, which guarantees equality between all Iraqi men and women without discrimination, and in accordance with Iraq Vision 2030 and the Sustainable Development Goals, the Ministry of Planning in Iraq, in cooperation with the National Department for Iraqi Women and all relevant stakeholders, is working on preparing a National Guide for mainstreaming women's needs and priorities into sectoral and local policies and strategies, with technical support from ESCWA. This guide is of great importance as it is the first national guide of its kind on mainstreaming women's needs and priorities and empowering them in policies and strategies, as well as in national institutions in Iraq, and it is relied upon to set clear mechanisms and standards for the mainstreaming process in the state's development plans, with the aim of enhancing women's economic, social, and political empowerment. It also holds special importance as it will be considered a reference document for all ministries and national institutions, providing guidance for the design and implementation of development policies, strategies, programs, and projects aimed at empowering women. Thereby, it contributes to advancing social justice by maximizing the effectiveness and impact of public spending programs. This guide specifically aims to: * Provide a unified national framework for the efforts of all national institutions to mainstream women's needs and priorities into development planning; * Ensure the systematic mainstreaming of women's needs and priorities in the design of policies, strategies, programs, and projects; * Enhance women's economic and social empowerment and their contribution to sustainable development; * Improve the efficiency of public resource allocation to achieve more inclusive and equitable development outcomes; * Support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals; * Encourage the use of data disaggregated by sex, age, and location in planning and policy-making; * Develop indicators to monitor and evaluate the impact of policies and programs aimed at enhancing social justice.
