About Us
At MzN International and Human Planet, we help organisations in the development, humanitarian, and climate sectors to deliver better, faster, and more sustainably. Our work supports NGOs, UN agencies, and social enterprises around the world.
We are office-free and fully remote, with team members across continents and clients in Africa, South Asia, South America, Europe, and North America. We believe in using technology to amplify impact, and AI is at the core of our next phase of growth.
We are now building a dedicated engineering team to develop AI agents that improve how our clients and internal teams operate – from research and grant writing to process automation.
About the Role
We are looking for a skilled and committed AI Engineer to develop, deploy, and maintain a suite of AI agents. These agents will serve two primary purposes:
-
Client-facing tools that support research, writing, and operational efficiency for NGOs and global institutions
-
Internal automation agents that streamline workflows, data management, and knowledge handling
Work is organised in focused sprints, typically lasting 2–6 weeks depending on complexity. You will be responsible for delivering fully functioning agents in line with project goals and timelines, working closely with both technical and non-technical colleagues.
This is a high-intensity role, ideal for candidates who are comfortable working independently, thrive in a fast-paced environment, and want to apply AI to solve meaningful, global challenges.
Key Responsibilities
-
Design, build, and maintain AI agents using LLMs and modern automation frameworks
-
Deliver usable tools on time and to specification in 2–6 week sprint cycles
-
Ensure strict data security according to GDPR
-
Develop secure, maintainable integrations with platforms such as Slack, Notion, Google Workspace, and HubSpot
-
Document development and design process for continuous integration and refinement
-
Manage the full lifecycle of agent development: prototyping, testing, deployment, refinement
-
Ensure data protection, usability, transparency, and ethical AI practices are embedded in your work
-
Collaborate remotely with a diverse and globally distributed team
-
Before starting to work on the tech, fully understand the context, purpose and workflow to ensure the tech is purposeful and practical
Required Skills
-
Proven experience designing AI agents.
-
Proficiency in Python and AI/ML libraries such as LangChain, HuggingFace, or OpenAI APIs (technical test will be performed during the application process)
-
Experience with REST APIs, containerisation (Docker), and cloud platforms (AWS, GCP, Azure, Google Business Suite)
-
Familiarity with automation and orchestration tools such as N8n or Zapier (technical test will be performed during the application process)
-
Strong understanding of data structures, model performance monitoring, and version control
-
Ability to work independently and communicate clearly with non-technical stakeholders
-
Excellent written and spoken English
Desirable Skills
-
Previous experience developing AI solutions for NGOs, international organisations, or social enterprises
-
Knowledge of the development, humanitarian, or climate finance sectors
-
Experience with retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), vector databases, and low-resource language processing
-
A strong interest in responsible AI and inclusive technology solutions
What We Offer
-
A fully remote, office-free work environment with flexible hours and unlimited paid holiday
-
The opportunity to work on globally relevant, impact-driven technology
-
A diverse and supportive international team
-
Clear sprint-based work structure with performance bonuses
-
Regular feedback, annual appraisal, professional development, and opportunity for progression

A brief note about our work culture
You will join an internationally distributed team, working 100% online in an agile methodology. Working in sprints, you will be a trusted and valued team member in charge of client projects. There is no fixed hierarchy, and you will sometimes find yourself the lead and other times a team member on work. Teams are self-forming, so you can heavily influence how far you like to go in our career.
Whilst working with an ever-increasing degree of autonomy after your onboarding phase, you can rely on project leaders and consultants across the globe for help, support and advice.
MzN is a small, agile organisation. We trust each other and treat each other with respect. We work at peak productivity, with intense sprints and lower demand times, operating in a customised online environment that purposely minimises internal meetings, administrative tasks or regulation.
