MiMIAT Health

At MiMIAT Health, we are empowering heroes with chronic conditions. We offer a multilingual app (iOS & Android), already live across Europe and Kenya, that enables patients to track symptoms, diet, weight, and stool. Soon, they’ll also integrate wearables and upload clinical records, building a unified, patient-owned health timeline.

Chronic disease management today remains highly fragmented, inequitable, and provider-centric, leaving millions without continuous care, especially in low-resource or high-mobility settings. Patients often lose ownership of their own health data, resulting in reactive instead of proactive care, late interventions and detections of flare ups, and preventable hospitalizations. 89% of chronic patients fail to consistently track their condition due to fragmented, manual, or incomplete tools, and 71% of doctors report that disconnected apps and records create gaps in delivering personalized care. In many regions, patients without smartphones or stable internet access are further excluded from digital health innovation.

MiMIAT Health addresses these challenges by creating a unified, patient-driven platform for structured health data aggregation, with mobile and SMS-based accessibility. We tackle the systemic inequities of chronic care access, digital inclusion, and health data sovereignty, aligning with SDG 3: Good Health & Well-Being.

MiMIAT Health is a digital health platform offering a free mobile app (iOS and Android) available in five languages, enabling patients to self-track key health metrics, and soon connect medical devices, and upload clinical documents — building their own continuous health record. By Q4 2025, we are also set to launch SMS-based access to reach digitally underserved populations.

Healthcare providers, with patient consent — particularly in primary and secondary care — can access this real-time data through our web platform, allowing earlier interventions and more proactive care. We offer both our standalone platform and EHR integration, ensuring no provider is left behind and enabling faster, more personalized patient interventions.

We would like you to join our mission, and to see your impact on real people and their families, on real stories, and to feel equally part of MiMIAT's family!

Graphic Designer

Volunteer Role Description (remote, unpaid)

At MiMIAT Health, we’re seeking a purpose-driven Graphic Designer to help bring visual depth and clarity to our mission. Whether it’s refining our pitch decks, polishing sales materials, or sharpening the visual strategy that supports our patient and provider journeys — your work will speak volumes even before we say a word.

This is an opportunity for someone looking to build their portfolio with meaningful, mission-led work in a fast-growing digital health startup. You’ll collaborate directly with the entire team (and be one more in MiMIAT's family!) to align visual design with the soul of what we do. From typography to layout to design consistency, we’re looking for someone who gets it, not just the pixels, but the purpose behind them.

This role is ideal for someone who: • Has a clean, sharp design style and a good sense of storytelling • Can work independently but loves co-creating with a team • Wants to add high-impact projects to their CV and real-world portfolio • Believes (inclusive) healthcare deserves better branding too

We’ll ask you for a small portfolio or samples of previous work (PDF or link) before moving forward. You don’t need years of experience, just taste, commitment, and curiosity.

If you’re excited about ethical healthcare innovation, enjoy turning vision into visuals, and want your designs to make a real difference, we want to meet you!
