Get Access To All JobsWhy Socure?
Socure is building the identity trust infrastructure for the digital economy — verifying 100% of good identities in real time and stopping fraud before it starts. The mission is big, the problems are complex, and the impact is felt by businesses, governments, and millions of people every day.
We hire people who want that level of responsibility. People who move fast, think critically, act like owners, and care deeply about solving customer problems with precision. If you want predictability or narrow scope, this won’t be your place. If you want to help build the future of identity with a team that holds a high bar for itself — keep reading.
The Work
Socure is rebuilding the way the world understands identity. That means our website isn't a brochure — it's an argument. A proof point. A demonstration of what it looks like when infrastructure is actually intelligent.
We're looking for a Front-End Web Developer who doesn't just implement designs — they elevate them. Someone who bridges the gap between what a designer imagines and what a browser renders, and who holds the bar high enough that those two things are indistinguishable.
This role will be central to the launch of a fully redesigned Socure.com and will own the front-end quality bar for everything that follows.
Location Requirements:
We are currently only able to hire candidates located in one of our location hubs: New York City, NY; Washington, DC; Seattle, WA; Miami, FL; San Francisco, CA.
- Translate high-fidelity design concepts into pixel-precise, performant web experiences
- Partner closely with brand and creative leadership to ensure design intent survives the build process — including motion, interaction, type rendering, and spacing
- Build and maintain reusable front-end components that scale across a fast-moving marketing site
- Own the front-end relationship with our external creative partners, ensuring handoffs are clean and implementation is airtight
- Contribute to and help enforce a design system with real rigor — not just a Figma library, but a living, documented framework
- Audit and optimize for performance, accessibility, and cross-browser fidelity without sacrificing visual quality
- Work fluidly across headless CMS environments, static builds, and custom code as the project demands
What You Bring
- 4+ years of front-end development experience, with a portfolio that demonstrates genuine design sensibility — not just working code, but beautiful working code
- Deep expertise in HTML, CSS (including modern layout systems, custom properties, and animation), and JavaScript/TypeScript
- Experience building marketing or brand sites where visual craft is a first-class concern
- Comfort with component-based frameworks (React preferred)
- Hands-on experience with contemporary headless CMS platforms — Contentful is the primary environment here; familiarity with Sanity, Prismic, Storyblok, or similar is a plus
- An eye for type rendering, spacing systems, motion timing, and the micro-details that separate a good site from a great one
- Experience working with design files at a high level of fidelity — you can look at a Figma frame and immediately understand what will be hard and why
- Ability to push back constructively on designs that won't translate well, and propose solutions that preserve intent
Bonus
- Experience embedding rich, interactive experiences within a web environment — data visualizations, scroll-driven narratives, live demos, or other in-page interactivity that goes beyond static content
- Experience with WebGL, Three.js, or canvas-based animation
- Familiarity with data-driven or enterprise SaaS marketing environments
- Prior work on brand-defining redesign projects
Socure is an equal opportunity employer that values diversity in all its forms within our company. We do not discriminate based on race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.
If you need an accommodation during any stage of the application or hiring process—including interview or onboarding support—please reach out to your Socure recruiting partner directly.
Compensation Range: $85K - $100K

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding H-1B Visa Sponsorship as a Web Developer
Verify your degree aligns with the role
USCIS requires your degree field to directly relate to web development. A computer science or software engineering degree clears this cleanly. An unrelated degree paired with years of development work may trigger a Request for Evidence.
Use OFLC Wage Search before salary negotiations
Look up the prevailing wage for Web Developer (SOC 15-1254) in your target city before you negotiate. Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above that level, so knowing the floor protects you.
Target cap-exempt employers for faster timelines
Universities, nonprofit research institutions, and government-affiliated entities are cap-exempt. You can start any time of year without entering the April lottery, which matters if you're approaching an OPT expiration.
Find sponsors using Migrate Mate's LCA data
Filter by web development job titles on Migrate Mate to see which employers have active Labor Condition Application filing history. That filing history confirms an employer has sponsored H-1B roles in your occupation, not just claimed openness to it.
Review the I-129 specialty occupation evidence early
Ask your employer's attorney what evidence will support the specialty occupation classification for your specific role. Job descriptions listing a degree as 'preferred' rather than 'required' are a common source of RFEs for web development petitions.

Find Web Developer JobsWeb Developer H-1B Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Web Developer role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
Yes, provided the position requires at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related field such as computer science, software engineering, or information technology. USCIS evaluates the job description, not just the title. Roles where any degree satisfies the requirement, regardless of field, are more likely to receive a specialty occupation RFE.
How do I find Web Developer jobs where the employer has a real H-1B filing history?
Search Web Developer roles on Migrate Mate, which surfaces employers based on DOL Labor Condition Application filing data. An employer that has filed LCAs for comparable roles has an established process, which reduces delays and signals genuine sponsorship capacity rather than a vague openness to H-1B hiring.
Can I switch employers while on H-1B as a Web Developer?
Yes. Under AC21 portability, you can change to a new employer in the same or a similar occupational classification once your I-140 has been approved and your I-485 has been pending for 180 days or more. Outside of that scenario, your new employer must file a fresh H-1B transfer petition before you start work.
What happens to my H-1B status if I'm laid off from a Web Developer role?
You get a 60-day grace period after your employment ends to find a new sponsoring employer, file for a change of status, or depart the U.S. Your new employer must file an H-1B transfer petition during that window. USCIS does not grant extensions of the grace period, so starting your job search immediately matters.
Does working as a freelance or contract Web Developer affect my H-1B status?
H-1B status is tied to a specific employer-employee relationship. Freelancing for clients or taking on independent contracting work outside your sponsoring employer's scope can violate your status, even if the work is web development. Some staffing arrangements are valid H-1B structures, but the placement employer must maintain the legal employment relationship and control over the work.
