We are a team of passionate, down‑to‑earth developers and engineers who love what we do.

About The Role
WellD is looking for a Senior Full Stack Engineer to join its Engineering Team in Lugano. In this role, you’ll work on a mission‑critical project where your contributions will have a direct impact on client success and software quality.

Where you’ll work
The position is based in Southern Switzerland, with a hybrid on‑site/remote setup (four days per week in the office and one day working remotely).

What Tech We Use
Our main tech stack includes Java/Kotlin and TypeScript, ReactJS and React Native. We version our projects on GitLab and rely heavily on containerisation through Docker, both for development and CI/CD purposes.
How We Conceive Software Dev
We promote Agile Development with a formal process that includes Code Reviews, Pair Programming, and Continuous Delivery. We care about software quality and have a proper methodology and pipeline to ensure it is always achieved. We do not just code; we design.
We believe in Open Source, and take every chance we have to share knowledge on our Tech Blog or contribute to OSS.
