Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to prove the proffered 'software engineer' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The petitioner did not provide a detailed description of the duties as requested, instead providing a vague list and a verbatim copy of duties from the beneficiary's prior managerial role in another country. This lack of specificity made it impossible to determine if the position truly required a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty.
