Agent guide: [/agents.md](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/agents.md). --- # Chief Technology Officer - **Company:** Arise - **Location:** Amsterdam, Netherlands - **Experience:** Expert - **Contract:** Permanent contract - **Skills:** Artificial Intelligence, Android Software Development, Automation of Tests, Large Language Models, Agentic-AI, Kotlin - **Published:** October 6, 2026 - **Apply:** https://www.adzuna.nl/details/5913544446 ## About the Role * Proven track record architecting and shipping production mobile apps, ideally as a senior engineer, lead, or technical founder. * Deep, architect-level iOS expertise - you can own a mature codebase end to end and make the hard structural calls with confidence. * Demonstrated ability to build an Android app from scratch to the same standard. * Hands-on fluency building through AI - agentic coding tools, LLM-driven workflows, automated testing and release. You've actually shipped this way, not just experimented. * Excellent problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. * Comfortable working fully in English. Technical Skills * Expert-level iOS/Swift - architecture, patterns, performance, and the judgment to keep a large app maintainable as it grows. * Strong Android development (Kotlin) with the ability to architect a new app end to end. * Familiarity with mobile build and release tooling (e.g. Fastlane). * Deep understanding of Apple and Android design principles, patterns, and best practices. * Ability to write clean, well-documented, maintainable code - and to direct AI to do the same. Who You Are * A decisive builder who takes a problem and runs with it - you'd rather ship and iterate than wait for certainty. * Direct and results-driven, comfortable owning outcomes and making the call. * Energized by autonomy and full ownership of the technology. * Allergic to bureaucracy - "meetings that should have been emails" are your enemy. ## Description * Own and architect the existing iOS app - maintain, optimize, deepen, and future-proof a codebase used by millions. * Build the Arise Android app from scratch - architecture, delivery, and long-term ownership. * Ensure cross-platform consistency and a coherent technical vision across both platforms. * Develop and test features that enhance the Arise experience. * Use AI agents and automated workflows as your primary means of building, testing, and shipping - not as an occasional helper. * Anticipate technical pitfalls and proactively design solutions. * Collaborate with design to refine usability for a smooth user experience. * Support monetization by integrating features with measurable business impact.
