The client Production Support Java Software Developers contribute to the reliability, capability, and efficiency of our core business operations.

As a Production Support Java Software Developer, you will be a vital member of our dedicated Production Support Team. Instead of rigid sprint cycles, your focus will be on ensuring system uptime, diagnosing complex production issues, and deploying critical patches and enhancements. You will work closely with a team of 4–7 technical peers, led by client business and technology leaders, alongside an experienced Technical Lead who will collaborate with you to ensure team success. Our deployment pipeline, issue tracking, and support methodologies are rooted in modern DevOps concepts and managed via Atlassian Jira.
We enable our Production Support Engineers to work across the entire application stack to troubleshoot, patch, and optimize our systems.
Our team members are full-stack generalists who dive into every tier of an application:
- Production Support & Incident Management: Investigate and resolve production issues, perform root cause analysis (RCA), and implement permanent fixes.
- Back-End Services & Database Operations: Tune SQL queries, troubleshoot APIs, optimize application performance, and ensure data integrity.
- Application Monitoring & Performance: Monitor application health, analyze logs, identify bottlenecks, and proactively address performance issues.
- Bug Fixes & Enhancements: Develop and deploy code fixes, minor enhancements, and patches for Java applications.
- User Interface & Controller Logic: Modify front-end views, update controller logic, and maintain application workflows as needed.
- Automated Testing & Quality Assurance: Write and maintain unit, integration, and regression tests to ensure application stability.
- Release & Deployment Support: Assist with production deployments, validate releases, and support rollback activities when necessary.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with developers, QA, DevOps, DBAs, and business stakeholders to resolve production issues and improve application reliability.
- Documentation: Create and maintain technical documentation, runbooks, and knowledge base articles for support procedures.
Over time, your troubleshooting and development skills will broaden and remain current because our production systems depend upon modern versions of the following popular frameworks and technologies: Java 8/17+, the Spring Framework, Oracle databases, Apache Tomcat, jQuery, Bootstrap, Cucumber, and Selenium.

Search Developer Jobs in ArizonaDeveloper Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies in Arizona sponsor visas for developer roles?
Intel's Chandler campuses, Microchip Technology in Chandler and Tempe, Honeywell, and Banner Health are among the larger Arizona employers with documented H-1B visa sponsorship histories for developer roles. Financial technology companies based in Scottsdale and Phoenix, including Global Payments and Voya Financial, also appear regularly in Department of Labor LCA filings for software development positions.
Which visa types are most common for developers sponsored in Arizona?
The H-1B is the primary visa category for developer roles in Arizona, covering software engineers, front-end and back-end developers, and embedded systems engineers. Developers with a master's degree from a U.S. university may benefit from the advanced degree exemption in the H-1B lottery. L-1B visas are also used when a developer transfers from a foreign affiliate of a multinational employer with Arizona operations.
How to find developer visa sponsorship jobs in Arizona?
Migrate Mate filters job listings specifically by visa sponsorship availability, making it straightforward to search developer roles in Arizona without sorting through positions that exclude international candidates. You can filter by city, role type, and sponsorship status to focus on Phoenix, Scottsdale, Chandler, and Tempe, where developer sponsorship activity is highest. Migrate Mate also surfaces employer sponsorship history to help you prioritize applications.
Which Arizona cities have the most developer visa sponsorship jobs?
Phoenix has the highest concentration of developer sponsorship opportunities, followed by Scottsdale, Tempe, and Chandler. Chandler is notable for semiconductor and embedded software roles tied to Intel and Microchip Technology. Scottsdale attracts fintech and SaaS employers. Tempe benefits from proximity to Arizona State University, which generates a steady pipeline of technical talent and draws employers who sponsor OPT-to-H-1B transitions.
Are there any Arizona-specific factors developers should know about visa sponsorship?
Arizona's semiconductor industry, anchored by TSMC's new fabrication plants in Phoenix and Intel's longstanding Chandler presence, has increased demand for hardware and embedded software developers specifically. Prevailing wage requirements for H-1B roles apply at the metropolitan statistical area level, so wage determinations for Phoenix-Mesa-Scottsdale differ from those in smaller Arizona cities. Arizona State University's large computer science program also means some employers in the region have established OPT and CPT hiring pipelines that can lead to sponsorship.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored developer jobs in Arizona?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
