I work with German bureaucracy. There are so many bureaucratic tasks where a little bit of development work would completely change the game. Adding clarity and guidance to bureaucratic processes has a huge impact. I've written some form fillers and I'll write more in the future.
There are lots of tiny problems that affect immigrants, and that can be solved with minimal development work. Right now I'm writing a bank comparison tool specifically for immigrants. Bank requirements can often exclude them and most comparators leave that out. It's a profitable problem to solve, too, since you get a commission for the leads you generate.
