Change volunteer roles

Seabex

We optimize agricultural water use through AI-powered irrigation recommendations and verified environmental impact measurement.

Business Development Assistant

Most volunteer roles in sustainability ask you to research, assist, or support. This one asks you to build.

Seabex is an AI-powered agricultural water intelligence platform operating across France, Tunisia, and Spain. Our platform helps farmers optimize irrigation without any hardware installation, using satellite imagery and agronomic AI models. We work with 500+ recurring farmers across 60,000+ hectares, with independently validated water savings of 16 to 40%. We are also building Water Savings Certificates (WSC) — a first-of-its-kind MRV infrastructure that will allow corporations to account for water savings in their supply chain under CSRD/ESRS E3 reporting obligations.

As our Business Development Volunteer, you will identify and qualify corporate leads, map partnership opportunities with agricultural institutions across France and Spain, conduct competitive research, and directly contribute to a commercial pipeline that matters.

You will work closely with the CEO and founding team — not a middle manager, not an intern coordinator. Your work will feed directly into deals with agri-food corporations, irrigation cooperatives, and institutional buyers.

What we are looking for

• A proactive self-starter with an interest in climate, agriculture, or water.
• Background in business, agronomy, sustainability, or engineering.
• French or English fluency (both is a plus).
• Ability to commit 5 to 10 hours per week for a minimum of 3 months.

What you get

• Direct access to the founding team and their investor and partner network.
• Real exposure to a B2B SaaS commercial motion in climate-tech.
• A letter of recommendation and LinkedIn endorsement from the CEO upon successful mission.

Period Reality aims to address period related issues and stories by sharing the real life stories from girls and women globally. Although half the population experiences a menstrual cycle, the stark contrast in the different realities of girls and women is very real and through storytelling we aim to educate and provide relatable content.

Through sharing stories from girls and women focused on their common humanities. Even though our realities might be very different depending on many factors (physical, geographical, socio-economical, mental etc.) we all share a lot of the same questions, worries, dreams, anxieties, ambitious etc. Making these stories relatable and accessible will educate and inspire and create a movement of girls and women being able to first and foremost understand their own cycle, in order to be kind to themselves.

Why this role matters

Mental health is deeply connected to how people experience their bodies, their cycles and their work environments. We want someone who can bring depth, care and clarity to how mental wellbeing is understood and supported across everything we do at Period Reality.

What you’ll do

• Take the lead on shaping and guiding our mental health approach across Period Reality’s work.

• Advise on how mental health intersects with menstrual health, workplace wellbeing and daily life.

• Shape content that speaks to emotional wellbeing, stress, burnout, and mental health with nuance and sensitivity.

• Suggest tools, frameworks, and resources that support both individuals and organisations.

We provide an Android AI tool that analyzes cervical images to support frontline screening decisions.

Data Preprocessing Model Specialist-Input Quality & Standardization

About MednTech
MednTech is a nonprofit organization developing AI-powered tools to improve early detection of cervical cancer and expand access to care in underserved communities, particularly in Africa. It works by equipping frontline healthcare providers with accessible technology and partnering with local health systems to improve outcomes and empower patients. We have already implemented our diagnostic model in real-world settings in Rwanda. We are now looking to further improve its performance and robustness before our next deployment, and are currently seeking volunteers to support this initiative.

Why Volunteer With Us

We are early-stage, moving fast, and building something that matters. You will have real ownership over technical decisions that directly shape a tool going into the field. Cervical cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world, yet it remains a leading cause of cancer death in low-resource settings simply because screening does not reach the people who need it. The tool you help build changes that. If you want your code to save lives, this is that opportunity!

Role Overview
Your role will be to aid design and implement a preprocessing model that ensures all incoming cervical images meet strict quality and consistency standards before being passed into downstream models.
Our cervical cancer screening method is dependent on pictures taken using a smartphone, leading to large variation in lighting and cervix positions in the image. On top of natural variances in fluid blockages or rotation and angle or cervix, it’s important that only valid images are run through our model.

Key Responsibilities

• Build automated checks for:
• Lighting normalization
• Blur and focus detection
• Angle and framing validation
• Specular reflection handling
• Develop preprocessing models or heuristics to:
• Enhance image quality (contrast, de-noising)
• Standardize image format, resolution, and scale
• Implement image rejection and acceptance criteria pipeline
• Create a quality scoring system for input images
• Collaborate with CV and ML engineers to optimize preprocessing impact on performance
• Optimize preprocessing for real-world noisy data (mobile capture, low-resource settings)

Required Skills

• Strong background in computer vision fundamentals
• Experience with OpenCV, PIL, or similar image processing libraries
• Understanding of image quality metrics
• Experience building automated data validation pipelines

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience with medical image preprocessing

• Familiarity with variability across capture devices and environments

• All roles are highly collaborative and will work closely across the MednTech AI pipeline

• Experience with healthcare AI, low-resource environments, or global health applications is a strong plus

• Candidates should be comfortable working in fast-paced, early-stage environments

betterSoil is a sustainable start-up and a movement that is passionately committed to the health of our earth's soil.

We are currently losing around 10 million hectares of fertile soil worldwide. That's about 14 million football pitches. However, good soils are the source of more than 90% of our food. At the same time, the world's population will grow to 10 billion people by 2050. Food will therefore become scarce, especially high-quality food, as this depends on the quality of the soil. The effects of climate change are worsening the situation of soils because droughts and extreme rainfall are becoming more severe and more frequent. Current farming methods lead to high CO2 emissions, diseased soils produce low-quality food and biodiversity is rapidly declining, as around half of biodiversity lives in the soil.

Since 2020, betterSoil has been involved at European level, e.g. with an event with the EU Parliament and prominent supporters such as Prof. Dr Ernst Ulrich von Weizsäcker, Dr Franz Fischler (Former EU Commissioner for Agriculture) and Dr Peter Johnston (European Policy Centre) in a national and international context to improve soil quality for climate resilience and climate protection as well as the promotion of biodiversity and sustainable food production. Our way of working goes far beyond soil consulting. We combine local, indigenous knowledge with the latest science and offer practice-orientated betterSoil recipes for farmers. We also offer individual consultations for companies and organisations of all kinds. In this way, we create a comprehensive awareness of soil health that helps to position

As Newsletter & Blog Content Manager, you’ll shape how betterSoil communicates with its community and partners. Your work will help us reach more people, strengthen our impact, and showcase how soil can change the world.

• Creativity, reliability, and the ability to work independently in a remote team.

What You’ll Gain
• Be part of an international, mission-driven team reimagining soil as the foundation of a sustainable future.
• Build a portfolio of published content on climate and agriculture.
• Learn about soil, regenerative agriculture, and sustainability strategies.
• Contribute flexibly from anywhere in the world .
