H-1B Dismissed — Software Engineering: did not establish the proffered software engineer position

Decision Summary

The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to establish that the proffered software engineer position qualified as a specialty occupation. The evidence did not demonstrate that a bachelor's degree is the industry standard, that the company normally requires a degree, or that the duties are sufficiently complex to require a degree. The director also found the beneficiary was not qualified for the position.
