Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered 'sr. software engineer' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The submitted job description was found to be too generalized and lacked sufficient detail to establish that the duties were complex enough to require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty.
