Rpg maker, maybe?
Baba is You
Dragonquest builders.

Link's Awakening lets you build and run your own dungeons. Problem is it's lego design and no multi-room puzzles.
I've heard the dungeon builder in that game is very limited. You can basically rearrange the rooms and not that much more.
Yeah that’s pretty much it. The challenges they give you are decent, but overall the dungeon builder just isn’t that interesting. Which is weird, because the dungeon builder was supposedly the entire reason they created the LA remake in the first place.
Accurate
Level head has an editor.
It's cross platform too so it should be possible to edit on mobile or PC if it's easier.
Poly Bridge is very creative with a sandbox mode. If you like the idea of building bridges and other structures for crossing. Its got great physics to mess around with.
Baba is You. Fantastic puzzle game that wad updated to add an editor "Baba is Make". Takes some getting used to, as not the most logical setup, but it allows so much creativity.

Not on Switch... yet, but Super Dungeon Maker looks very nice. That's basically Super Zelda Maker without the licence.
If you cannot wait it's already available on Steam
How are bosses handled?
Blockquest maker
Roller Coaster Tycoon 3. It's not really a "level editor," more of a full-on theme park creator, meeting certain building requirements as challenges and becoming profitable. It's an older PC game, but that just means it runs flawlessly on the Switch even with hundreds of little people wandering all over the place. The controls are well adapted to the Switch too, with good radial menus.
I love Roller Coaster Tycoon, but disagree that the controls felt well adapted. I play a lot of Civ 6 on my Switch so going from that which also adapts computer controls to Roller Coaster Tycoon felt very lacking.
Dragon Quest Builders - like Minecraft but with a story. It’s an alternate world to Dragon Quest 1 where the hero loses and your job is to rebuild the world. You get an island after finishing the story to do whatever you want with. Has a demo.
Dragon Quest Builders 2 - same concept as 1, but based on DQ2. The game mechanics have been refined and the story is better in this one, imo. You get an island during the story you can do whatever you want with and you can invite NPCs to live there. Has a demo.
Portal Knights - like Dragon Quest Builders but has rpg elements and more combat focused. You can choose between knight, mage or archer (more with dlc) and there is 2-player couch co-op and 4-player online co-op. Has a demo.
Lego Worlds. Dragon Quest Builders 1 & 2
...doesn't Blue Fire have a level editor?
When Factorio comes out on October 28, it will have a robust system for creating custom scenarios.
