About the role

HEY THERE

Yazio is one of the most popular nutrition apps in the world, helping millions of people lead healthier lives through intuitive calorie tracking, thousands of delicious recipes, personalized fasting plans and seamless integration with popular fitness trackers.

We’re looking for a Senior Mobile Platform Engineer (iOS) to join our Mobile Platform Team. If you’re an experienced iOS engineer who wants to enable others by tackling tooling challenges, architectural improvements, optimizing CI/CD pipelines and collaborating across squads—this is your chance to make a big impact.

This is a full-time, 100% remote position. You can be based in Germany, Spain, Portugal or the U.K.

YOUR MISSION

As a Senior Mobile Platform Engineer (iOS), you will:

• Drive improvements to our iOS app architecture and development workflows, ensuring scalability and maintainability

• Collaborate with mobile feature squads to improve the development experience by creating better tools, automation and shared services. Understand their pain points that translate into our backlog

• Support non-feature squad teams (e.g. Marketing, Analytics) on initiatives that drive value to the business and not just the codebase

• Use AI as a force multiplier. You won’t be writing every line of code yourself anymore, but you’ll understand and own the outcome

• Own and improve our iOS build system, CI/CD pipelines and development tooling

• Help ensure key engineering updates, improvements and standards are communicated clearly and consistently across the company

• Expand your knowledge and get your hands dirty with Kotlin (Android) and KMP

• Support QA automation efforts

YOUR PROFILE

• You have 5+ years of experience as a Mobile Engineer (bonus points if you've worked in a platform team before) or in a similar role within a product-focused engineering organization

• You have deep expertise in Swift and the iOS toolchain, including strong knowledge of the Xcode build system and development workflows

• You're comfortable with CI/CD tooling, scripting and automation—and you know how to use them to streamline development and deployment

• You're an excellent communicator who proactively shares knowledge, fosters alignment across teams and ensures transparency around technical decisions. You’re comfortable working in English, which is our primary language for collaboration

• You take full ownership of your work, are highly self-motivated and lead by example in cross-functional collaboration

• You’re happy to work beyond traditional iOS boundaries—whether it’s exploring Kotlin Multiplatform, helping Android engineers or supporting QA with automation and tooling

• You have a strong quality mindset and are committed to engineering excellence, both in your own work and across the teams you support

CORE TECH STACK

Here’s what you’ll be working with:

• iOS: Xcode, Swift, SwiftUI, SPM

• Tooling & automation: Command-line tools, Bash/Kotlin scripting, CI/CD

• Cross-platform: Kotlin Multiplatform (KMP). Most of our business logic is shared, and we’re continuing to move more towards it

• Claude as the main AI tool

WHY US?

• An exciting product with millions of users in over 150 countries, driven by our mission to transform the world through healthy eating

• A remote-first setup: work 100% from home, join a co-working space, or work abroad for several weeks per year

• 30 vacation days to relax and recharge, plus 5 child sick days if your little one needs you

• A focus-driven culture that values efficiency over long hours - no overtime expectations, and if it happens, you get that time back!

• A high-impact environment where your work drives real change - short decision-making processes and no micromanagement

• A team culture where ambition and balance go hand in hand, supported by strong connections - from our fully covered company retreat to team meetups and virtual coffee breaks

• Tools and support to do your best work: MacBook, monitor, and €1,000 annual learning budget, plus regular feedback and career development

• A truly international team with English as our company language and a shared commitment to growth and well-being - supported by Sunday Supplements and Nilo Health

At Yazio, we believe that diversity fuels innovation. We are committed to fostering an inclusive environment where everyone, regardless of gender identity, race, religion, age, sexual orientation, or ability, feels valued and empowered. We celebrate different perspectives and actively encourage individuals from all backgrounds to apply.
