    How this list is ranked

    These employers are ranked by how many roles open to CPT candidates they have live on Migrate Mate right now. CPT is your own work authorization rather than something the employer files, so the practical question is whether the role fits your field of study and whether the team has hired people on CPT before.

How CPT works

CPT is curricular practical training authorized by an F-1 student's school, not the employer. The school's DSO authorizes it as an integral part of the curriculum, typically an internship or co-op, and the employer only provides an offer letter. Twelve or more months of full-time CPT eliminates OPT eligibility, so check the terms with your DSO first.

CPT Employers for Data Engineers: Frequently Asked Questions

Which companies sponsor the most CPT visas for Data Engineers?

Oracle has the most, with 1 live CPT jobs on Migrate Mate, followed by TikTok (11) and Whatnot (4). Across the 10 companies on this list, Migrate Mate is tracking 24 live CPT jobs, updated daily.

Who is eligible for CPT?

F-1 students enrolled full-time at a U.S. college or university are eligible for CPT. The training must be an integral part of the curriculum, such as a required internship or co-op, and directly related to the student's field of study. The student's Designated School Official authorizes each CPT placement; the employer does not file any government application. Students who complete twelve or more months of full-time CPT lose eligibility for Optional Practical Training.

Do data engineers qualify for F-1 CPT as a specialty occupation?

Yes. Data engineers typically hold a bachelor's degree in a specific field, which is exactly the specialty-occupation standard F-1 CPT is built around. What matters is that the employer classifies the role under a matching occupation code and that your degree lines up with it.

How do I get CPT through a top employer?

Start by securing a written offer letter from the employer that states your role, dates, and work schedule. Bring that letter to your school's international student office and work with your Designated School Official to request CPT authorization. The DSO issues an updated Form I-20 listing the authorized employer and dates before your start date. Once your I-20 reflects the authorization, you may begin work. No government filing is required from the employer; authorization comes entirely through your school.
