Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the AAO determined that the petitioner's position description, considered within the context of its operations, detailed duties that were sufficiently specialized and complex to require a bachelor's degree. The duties, which included developing and testing software solutions, satisfied the statutory definition of a specialty occupation.
