Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO found the petitioner provided credible and detailed descriptions of the job duties, along with a supporting expert opinion letter. This evidence established that the senior data analyst position is sufficiently complex or unique to require a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty, thus meeting the criteria for a specialty occupation.
