Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found that the evidence sufficiently demonstrated the 'applied scientist II' position qualifies as a specialty occupation. The record credibly showed the position's duties in machine learning and statistical modeling require a body of highly specialized knowledge, and that the specified range of degree fields (computer science, engineering, math, and physics) are appropriately related to constitute a specific specialty for the role.
