React Native Developer with iOS background

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

WHO WE ARE

We’re Elements, a digital agency with almost 30 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. We have evolved beyond traditional development. Our approach is to combine strong and deep rooted Software Engineering principles with advanced AI powered workflows using the latest tooling and AI models to solve complex business challenges. We 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.

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.

In an industry that never stands still, and even less in the era of AI, we embrace the evolution of technology as an opportunity rather than a blocker. You will have the space to explore and master diverse tech stacks, ensuring our solutions remain cutting edge. Whether it's adopting a new framework or exploring a new language, your willingness to learn and adapt is what will drive both our projects and your career forward.

Requirements

WHAT YOU BRING

***Important: Please note that for this position, we can only consider candidates who are already residing in the Netherlands and hold a valid work permit. We are unable to provide visa sponsorship at this time.

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 genuinely enjoy the variety of working on different types of projects. Frequent changes don't phase you; instead, you embrace an adaptive approach to evolving priorities. 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:

• 2-3 years of professional experience with React Native, including hands-on project work
• At least 3 years of general development experience (e.g. TypeScript/JavaScript (ES6+), frontend React, or native mobile with Kotlin/Swift)
• Familiarity with continuous integration and delivery pipelines
• 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
• While your main focus is React Native, we highly appreciate any prior exposure to native iOS development or a genuine interest in learning in the short term

It’s a plus if you bring:

• Experience working with native modules and APIs and integrating them into React Native projects
• Ability to contribute to app architecture design
