Full-Stack Elixir Engineer

Every year, millions of lives are lost due to a lack of basic health monitoring. At GOAL3, we believe that technology should serve those who need it most. We develop the IMPALA system, a robust, easy-to-use patient monitoring platform designed specifically for environments where resources are limited but the need is great.

We are currently in a scale-up phase whereby we currently operate in about 40 hospitals and expect to reach ~120 before end of year. This growth is also the reason why we want to expand on the capabilities of our platform and want to grow the team.

We are a small, dedicated team. We don't just need a coder; we need a problem-solver who understands that a bug in our code could mean a delay in patient care. We are looking for an engineer who enjoys the 'all-round' nature of the Elixir ecosystem, someone who can jump from debugging a hardware peripheral in Nerves to refining a UI component in Svelte.

• →Embedded Systems: Develop and maintain firmware using Nerves to ensure our monitoring devices are resilient and secure in low-connectivity environments.
• →Backend Development: Build and scale robust server-side logic with Phoenix and Ecto.
• →Frontend Interfaces: Create reactive, intuitive user dashboards using Svelte (integrated with Phoenix via LiveView or as a standalone SPA).
• →System Architecture: Design fault-tolerant systems that can handle real-time medical data with 24/7 uptime.
• →Collaborative Growth: Participate in peer code reviews and contribute to a culture of technical excellence and empathy.

• Professional experience with Elixir and the Phoenix framework.
• Proficiency in Svelte or significant experience with modern JavaScript frameworks (React/Vue) and a willingness to transition.
• Familiarity with PostgreSQL and time-series data handling.
• Understanding of IoT protocols and hardware-software interfacing.
• Hands-on experience with Nerves or a strong background in embedded C/C++ and experience with Buildroot are a plus.
• Experience with data analysis with healthcare data is a plus

• →A versatile mindset: You are comfortable working across the full stack and don't mind getting your hands 'dirty' with hardware.
• →Technical maturity: You value simplicity, readability, and reliability over 'clever' code.
• →Purpose-driven focus: You are motivated by the social impact of your work and want to see your code make a tangible difference in hospitals worldwide.
• →Interest in what happens in the field: We are in touch with our users
• →Strong communication skills: Can explain complex technical concepts to people who are less technical.
