Meet the Digital Unit at the NetHope Global Summit 2026 (opens in a new tab): 26–29 Oct 2026, Amsterdam

We're People in Need's in-house digital team.

We are product, design, AI and software engineering specialists building tools for the NGO sector.

People in Need

We are one of the largest non-profits in Central Europe; we work in relief and development across dozens of countries. Our programmes run in some of the harshest conditions — and increasingly on digital software.

Digital Unit

We are a cross-functional product and engineering team at PIN. We build, use, and maintain digital solutions for our own operations and programmes — and for other NGOs with similar needs.

What we bring

  • Product and strategy

    Agile, MVP-driven delivery. We prototype and validate early to put the budget on the right solution.

  • Software engineering

    Full-stack and progressive web apps, built to run in the field. From a few lines of code to an entire production system.

  • Data, BI, and analytics

    Programme data and product usage turned into decisions. PowerBI dashboards, reporting, and the analytics to see what's working.

  • GIS and mapping

    Spatial data, maps, and early-warning layers for disaster-prone contexts.

  • AI engineering

    Applied AI: faster analysis, triage and repetitive work, built and deployed responsibly.

  • UX and design

    Human-centred interface and content design that gets tools adopted.

  • Research and testing

    Usability and functional testing that keeps tools working for the people who use them.

  • Training and facilitation

    Workshops and hands-on support that leave your team with the skills.
