H-1B Dismissed — Software Development (2021): did not establish the proffered "software engineer"

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered "software engineer" position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The record lacked sufficient, consistent information regarding the beneficiary's duties, and the petitioner's response to an RFE significantly changed the job description rather than clarifying it, which prevented a proper analysis of the position's requirements.
