It appears that as an employee who is a CA non-resident and working outside of CA even if for a CA based company you would not be taxed on the income earned while outside of CA. So you would figure your CA taxes with 9.5 months of income not CA sourced.
In the "My Info" section you will indicate WA as your resident state and that you earned income in another state (CA). That will generate a CA non-resident return. In the CA interview you will be asked to allocate the days (wages) earned inside and outside CA.
