Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered position of 'devops quality engineer' qualifies as a specialty occupation. The AAO found that the record lacked consistent and probative evidence demonstrating the nature of the proposed duties and the viability of the in-house project, such as non-binding Statements of Work and unclear invoices. Consequently, the petitioner did not prove that it had sufficient specialty occupation work available for the beneficiary for the requested employment period.
