Role Summary
United Contractor Services is seeking a Full Stack Developer to build, enhance, and support the internal applications and tools our field and office teams rely on every day. This role covers the full lifecycle - front‑end interfaces, back‑end services, databases, and the APIs that tie them to our core business platforms.
The ideal candidate is both hands‑on and analytical: someone who can write clean, maintainable code, design a sensible data model, debug a production issue, and also sit down with accounting, operations, or a project team to understand what they actually need before writing a line of it.
This is not a ticket‑based support role. This position owns the applications it builds, end to end.
Technology Environment (examples)
- Internal web applications and dashboards supporting field and office operations
- Viewpoint Vista (ERP) and Procore (project management) data and APIs
- Payroll and HR systems including ADP / Paylocity
- Microsoft ecosystem - M365, Entra ID, Teams, Power Platform, Azure
- ManageEngine ServiceDesk / Freshservice
Key Responsibilities
Application Development
- Build and maintain internal web applications from front end through back end, including UI, business logic, APIs, and database layers.
- Design and optimize relational database schemas, queries, and stored procedures.
- Develop and consume REST APIs and webhooks to move data between internal applications and core business platforms.
- Write readable, testable, maintainable code and participate in code review.
Business Analysis & Solution Design
- Partner with accounting, operations, HR, project teams, and IT to understand workflows and translate them into working software.
- Identify manual processes that can be replaced with purpose‑built tools or automation.
- Turn business requirements into technical designs, data models, and delivery plans.
Quality, Deployment & Support
- Test, deploy, monitor, and support applications in production.
- Troubleshoot and resolve defects, performance problems, and data integrity issues across the stack.
- Implement logging, alerting, validation, and error handling so problems surface before users report them.
Documentation & Standards
- Document application architecture, data models, field definitions, and business rules.
- Establish standards for source control, API usage, authentication, and change management.
- Ensure applications meet security, access control, and audit requirements.
Continuous Improvement
- Evaluate frameworks, third‑party tools, and APIs that could accelerate delivery.
- Improve the scalability, maintainability, and performance of existing applications.
- Proactively recommend improvements to leadership rather than waiting to be asked.
Required Qualifications
- 3+ years of professional software development experience across front end and back end
- Proficiency in at least one back‑end language (C#, Python, JavaScript/Node, etc.)
- Front‑end experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and a modern framework (React, Angular, Vue, or similar)
- Strong SQL and relational database design skills
- Hands‑on experience building and consuming REST/JSON APIs, including authentication (OAuth, tokens)
- Experience with source control and standard development workflows (Git)
- Proven ability to translate business requirements into working software
- Strong troubleshooting and root‑cause analysis skills
- Comfortable working independently and owning outcomes
Preferred Experience
- Viewpoint Vista, Procore, ADP, or Paylocity integration or reporting experience
- Microsoft ecosystem development (Azure, Azure Functions, Power Platform, Entra ID)
- Cloud hosting, CI/CD pipelines, and containerization
- Reporting and BI tools (Power BI, SSRS)
- Construction or project‑based business environments
United Contractor Services is an Equal Opportunity Employer.

Align your degree field to the role
USCIS scrutinizes whether your degree field directly relates to full stack development. A computer science or software engineering degree is the cleanest fit. If your degree is in a different field, gather transcripts and employer letters showing the technical overlap.
Search LCA filings before applying
Use the OFLC Wage Search to look up which companies have filed Labor Condition Applications for software developer roles. Employers with recent LCA history have already cleared DOL compliance hurdles and are far more likely to repeat the process for your offer.
Target cap-exempt employers strategically
Universities, nonprofit research institutions, and government research organizations are exempt from the H-1B lottery cap. Full stack developer roles at these employers can start any time of year, with no March registration window and no selection risk.
Negotiate your start date around cap timelines
Cap-subject H-1B petitions have an October 1 start date. If you're interviewing in Q4 or Q1, ask employers whether they'll file in the March registration window. A 12-month gap between offer and start date is common and worth confirming upfront.
Use Migrate Mate to filter verified sponsors
Filter your job search on Migrate Mate by employers with confirmed H-1B LCA filing history for developer roles. This cuts out companies that list sponsorship as possible but have no DOL filing record to back it up.
Request premium processing before your OPT expires
If you're on OPT and your authorization end date is within six months of an H-1B filing, ask your employer to pay for USCIS premium processing. Standard processing can run several months, and a gap in authorization status affects your ability to keep working.
H-1B Visa Full Stack Developer: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Full Stack Developer role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes. Full stack development qualifies as a specialty occupation because the role normally requires at least a bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a closely related field. USCIS evaluates whether the specific job duties require theoretical and practical application of highly specialized knowledge, not just general technical skills. Employers typically document this in the H-1B petition with a detailed job description.
What happens if my degree is not in computer science or software engineering?
USCIS allows equivalent qualifications under specific conditions. Three years of progressively responsible full stack development experience can substitute for one year of formal education, meaning 12 years of relevant work experience can stand in for a four-year degree. Alternatively, a combination of a two-year degree and six years of hands-on experience may qualify. Your employer's attorney will document this equivalency in the petition.
How do I find Full Stack Developer jobs where employers are willing to sponsor H-1B visas?
Migrate Mate filters job listings by employers with verified H-1B Labor Condition Application filing history, so you can focus on companies that have already gone through the DOL and USCIS process for developer roles. Searching by LCA history is more reliable than relying on job postings that say 'sponsorship considered,' which carries no legal commitment.
Can I change employers after my H-1B is approved as a Full Stack Developer?
Yes. Under H-1B portability rules established by the American Competitiveness in the 21st Century Act, you can start working for a new employer as soon as they file a new H-1B petition on your behalf, without waiting for USCIS approval. The new role must still qualify as a specialty occupation, and your new employer must file their own LCA with DOL before submitting the petition.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for a Full Stack Developer H-1B petition?
Before filing an H-1B petition, your employer must certify through a Labor Condition Application that they'll pay you at least the prevailing wage for your role, level, and geographic area. DOL sets four wage levels based on experience and complexity. You can look up the applicable wage for your specific job code and location using the OFLC Wage Search tool, which publishes wage data by SOC occupation code and metropolitan area.
