UI/UX Designer

Introduction

At Wellis, we believe healthcare should be more accessible, personal, and stigma-free. Too often, people hesitate to seek help for certain health concerns. Our mission is to lower those barriers and make it simple for people to connect with the right care — now, and for the long term.

We’re building a next-generation digital platform that goes beyond a website: our ambition is to launch a mobile app that integrates with health apps and devices, supporting people continuously throughout their health journey. This is your chance to design experiences that will impact thousands of people — and eventually millions.

Why Wellis

Wellis is a young, fast-moving healthtech scale-up with a clear mission: combine medical expertise, technology, and data to make healthcare smarter, more efficient, and more personal.

We’re focused on lowering the barriers to care, especially for health concerns people don’t always feel comfortable seeking help for. Our treatment portfolio is expanding rapidly, and our ambition is to build long-term, digital-first solutions that support people at every stage of their health journey.

You’ll join an ambitious, international team where ownership is encouraged, collaboration is key, and impact is visible from day one. We’re opening our new office in Rotterdam this year, where the team will meet 1–2 days per week to brainstorm, build, and grow together.
