H-1B Dismissed — Software Development (2020): did not establish the proffered position of 'devops quality

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.
