Job description

Elements is growing and ambitious! As part of our exciting expansion, we are moving from Almere to Amsterdam and we’re looking for a Senior iOS Developer to help us build apps millions rely on.While your primary focus is native iOS, experience with React Native will give you an edge, since we deliver projects across both native and cross-platform environments.

WHO WE ARE

We’re Elements, a digital agency with 25 years of experience building mission-critical mobile apps for leading companies. But we don’t just write code — we create an environment where technology, people, and processes merge to deliver measurable business value. Our approach is powered by Intelligent Engineering, where we use the latest tooling and AI to build faster, smarter, and with higher quality.

Our team is the engine behind this approach. With more than 30 software engineers from over 10 different nationalities, we work from our offices in Amsterdam and Barcelona on challenging projects. We believe in a culture of Excellence, Collaboration and Impact.

See some examples of our work here https://www.elements.nl/en/cases.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Together with your team, you build a variety of brand new mobile applications. You collaborate with colleagues to make estimates and define architecture, as well as shape the project structure. You embrace our way of working, while also suggesting improvements to make it even better. You think with the client and bring the commercial perspective to the development process. You have genuine curiosity for your field, staying up to speed with the latest innovations and sharing knowledge with colleagues.

With our increasing focus on mobile applications, both for our existing and greenfield projects, you will have the exciting opportunity to apply your skills across a range of innovative applications.

WHAT YOU BRING

***Important: Please note, for this role we can only consider candidates already based in the Netherlands with a valid work visa.

You’re someone who communicates clearly in English and can easily connect with colleagues and clients alike. With a proactive mindset and an open, collaborative attitude, you thrive in team environments and enjoy finding solutions together. You’re curious by nature, quick to learn new skills, and adaptive when things change. On top of that, you bring a healthy sense of commercial awareness, allowing you to balance technical excellence with the bigger picture of delivering value.

Your tech skills and experience:

• 5-7 years of professional mobile development experience
• At least 3-4 years of applied experience in iOS
• Proficiency with Swift, including Swift Package Manager
• Knowledge of both SwiftUI and UIKit, and knowing when to use each
• Experience with modern concurrency patterns: Combine, async/await, and actors
• Commitment to building apps with strong accessibility support (VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, etc.)
• Experienced in Unit and E2E testing (we use XCTest, Jest, Maestro)
• Hands-on experience bringing mobile to production with CI/CD
• Practical experience with Apple’s distribution process (code signing, provisioning, App Store submission)
• Hands-on React Native experience (or strong motivation to learn it quickly)

WHAT WE OFFER

• An experienced and international team of professionals, where you get to teach and learn at the same time;
• You will have flexible working hours and a possibility to work from home or our office, or experience working as a digital nomad from another country for up to 2 months per year;
• We encourage you to visit events and/or take courses to keep up-to-date and learn new skills by offering a yearly budget for personal development;
• 25 paid vacation days per year;
• Since we now work from home much more often, we contribute to your home internet subscription every month;
• To keep that close connection with our colleagues in Spain, we cover your flight tickets to Barcelona once a year, if you want to experience working from our office there;
• We provide you with lunch, snacks and unlimited freshly ground coffee every day in the office;
• And, to top it off, what is work without some fun? We regularly organise drinks, dinners and other team building events.
