- Design and evolve reusable Terraform modules spanning AWS, Azure, Snowflake, MongoDB Atlas, GitLab, Datadog, etc.
- Drive CI/CD, IaC, and acceptance-test (BDD/behave) standards across the team.
- Mentor engineers and act as code-owner across IaC, data-lake, and application repos.

Must have skills:
- Expert Python (ex/ Flask, Dash, Dask, Pandas);
- Deep experience with AWS (ex. S3, IAM, SQS, Lambda, IRSA);
- Terraform at module-author level;
- Advanced SQL and Snowflake (ex. external tables, MVs, performance tuning);
- Experience designing high-throughput ETL over diverse formats (ex. Parquet, JSON, CSV, XML, zipped archives);

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Full Stack Engineer
Align your degree to the role
H-1B1 visa requires your bachelor's degree field to directly relate to full stack engineering. A computer science or software engineering degree maps cleanly, but an unrelated degree paired with years of experience won't substitute on its own without supporting equivalency documentation.
Target employers already filing LCAs
Prioritize tech companies that have certified Labor Condition Applications with the DOL for software engineering roles. An employer comfortable with LCA filings for H-1B visa staff will have less friction adapting that process for your H-1B1 Chile application.
Benchmark your offer against prevailing wage
Your employer's LCA must certify a wage at or above the DOL prevailing rate for your role and location. Run the OFLC Wage Search before your offer negotiation so you know the floor and can flag any shortfall early.
Search verified H-1B1 employers on Migrate Mate
Filter your full stack job search to employers with confirmed H-1B1 Chile sponsorship history on Migrate Mate. This cuts the time spent cold-pitching companies unfamiliar with the visa category and focuses your effort where sponsorship infrastructure already exists.
Clarify the LCA timeline with your employer
Your employer must receive DOL LCA certification before you can schedule your consular interview. Press for an estimated LCA submission date during offer negotiations so the certification doesn't become a bottleneck that delays your start date.
Confirm your O*NET classification before interviewing
Consular officers assess whether your full stack role qualifies as a specialty occupation. Pull the O*NET profile for Software Developers or Web Developers and confirm your offer letter reflects duties consistent with that occupational definition to avoid adjudication issues.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Full Stack Engineer role qualify as a specialty occupation for the H-1B1 Chile visa?
Yes. Full stack engineering requires at least a bachelor's degree in computer science, software engineering, or a closely related field, which satisfies the specialty occupation definition under the H-1B1 visa program. Your offer letter must describe duties consistent with that degree requirement. A role framed as a general IT generalist position without degree specificity can draw scrutiny at the consulate.
How does the H-1B1 Chile visa compare to H-1B for Full Stack Engineers?
The H-1B1 Chile visa skips the H-1B lottery entirely, so there's no April registration gamble. The annual cap is 1,400 visas for Chilean nationals and has never come close to filling. You apply at the consulate rather than through USCIS, which typically means a faster path to starting work. The main trade-off is that H-1B1 doesn't carry dual intent, so you can't simultaneously pursue permanent residency through an employer-sponsored green card while on H-1B1 status.
How can I find Full Stack Engineer jobs that offer H-1B1 Chile visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate lets you filter specifically for employers with H-1B1 Chile visa sponsorship history, so you're not guessing which companies are open to sponsoring. Most general job boards don't distinguish H-1B1 from other work visas, which wastes time on applications to employers unfamiliar with the Chile-specific category or unwilling to file an LCA for a single hire.
What documents does my employer need to prepare for my H-1B1 Chile application?
Your employer files a Labor Condition Application with the DOL and receives certification before you apply. They also provide a support letter confirming the specialty occupation nature of the role, your job title, and your offered wage. You bring both the certified LCA and the employer letter to your consular interview along with your academic credentials, DS-160 confirmation, and valid Chilean passport.
Can I renew my H-1B1 Chile visa while staying in the United States?
H-1B1 visa status can be extended in increments through your employer filing with USCIS, but the visa stamp itself must be renewed at a consulate abroad. Most full stack engineers on H-1B1 renew their visa stamp during a trip home to Chile or at a third-country consulate. Plan for this before your current stamp expires if you have upcoming international travel.
