This is free but requires registration. An interview with TechnoServe and JUST Foods/Tailored Foods, who both work in developing countries.
Feeding Tomorrow’s Volunteer Globally program - IFT works with USAID's Farmer-to-Farmer program to fill volunteer assignments requiring food science background. They are listed on IFT's career page. Currently the assignments are remote. Volunteers must be US citizens or permanent residents; this is a USAID requirement, not IFT's.
