Join the DO Team
It is said that 90% of the world’s products are designed for only 10% of the world’s population.

Design Outreach (DO) is working to turn this statistic upside down by focusing our engineering efforts on the needs of those in developing countries who are often forgotten.

Design Outreach is a Christian humanitarian engineering organization with offices in Ohio, Malawi, Zambia, and the UK with technologies in use in ten countries worldwide, serving over 150,000 people. Our vision is to see marginalized and low-income communities transformed physically, economically, and spiritually. We achieve this goal by developing innovative and appropriate technologies that improve the lives of those living in poverty.

We are always looking to grow our team! Are you a passion-filled individual who has a heart for serving people living in poverty? Are you a gifted professional wanting to use your skills to make an eternal difference? If so, you may view and apply for our open positions below.

We are driven to develop high-quality engineered technologies that are created with excellence.

We collaborate with top professionals and experts to develop innovative, user-centered technology solutions.

We use data-driven methods to create sustainable solutions, provide critical feedback, and iterate for excellence in technology solutions.

We focus on technologies that have potential for economic sustainability and scalability.
