We are driving organizational transformation and business strategy by empowering our technology team to innovate new and elegant solutions to enhance the customer experience. Together, we are leaning into the future, owning the outcome, and driving organizational change to transform how we work. 

Job Description

We are looking for a MEAN Full Stack Engineer to join the delivery team within our Experience organization at Wellmark. This is your chance to build meaningful digital experiences that directly enhance how our members interact with us every day. 

In this role, you’ll design, develop, test, implement, and maintain software solutions that support Wellmark’s business strategy and Technology vision. Depending on your experience level, you’ll contribute to development and production support efforts while growing your ability to own features end-to-end—ensuring solutions meet project specifications, quality standards, and deliver exceptional member value.  

As a full stack contributor, you’ll work across the stack (with the balance of front-end and back-end shifting by initiative). You’ll ideally bring experience with the MEAN stack (MongoDB, Express.js, Angular, Node.js), along with exposure to GitHub, GitHub Actions for CI/CD, and AWS. Leveraging data and insights, including UX research, you’ll help analyze, build, and optimize solutions that improve user experience and meet accessibility and usability standards.  

You’ll collaborate closely with other Technology teams and business partners to deliver integrated, scalable solutions and explore new technology approaches. As you grow in the role, you’ll begin to influence solution design decisions, strengthen stakeholder relationships, and contribute to continuous improvement across the team.  

We’re looking for someone who is curious, collaborative, and confident sharing ideas and asking questions—because the best member experiences are built through open dialogue and diverse perspectives. If you’re excited about creating impactful digital experiences and continuing to grow your full-stack skills, we’d love to hear from you.
