Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding E-3 Visa Sponsorship as a Security Engineer
Align your credentials with U.S. specialty occupation standards
Your Australian cybersecurity or computer science degree needs to map directly to the Security Engineer role. A three-year bachelor's is generally accepted as equivalent, but gather official transcripts and a credential evaluation before applications start.
Search for employers with active LCA filing history
Target companies that have filed Labor Condition Applications for security roles before. DOL's public disclosure data shows which employers regularly sponsor tech roles, so you can focus your outreach on organizations already familiar with the E-3 process.
Clarify the sponsorship process during your offer negotiation
Many U.S. employers confuse the E-3 with the H-1B and assume sponsorship is complicated. Explain that the E-3 requires no lottery, no PERM labor certification, and that the employer's main obligation is filing a certified LCA with the DOL before your consulate appointment.
Confirm your role meets specialty occupation requirements
Security Engineer positions generally qualify as specialty occupations, but the job description must explicitly require a degree in a specific field. If your offer letter says 'degree preferred' rather than 'required,' ask your employer to revise it before the LCA is filed.
Use Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service to handle the paperwork
Once you have an offer, Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service manages your LCA filing, DS-160, and consulate appointment preparation end-to-end, so your employer doesn't need to engage a separate immigration attorney for the process.
Prepare for security clearance questions at your consulate interview
Security Engineer roles sometimes involve access to sensitive systems or government contracts. If your position references clearance eligibility, be ready to explain the scope of your work clearly at your visa interview without disclosing confidential project details.

Find Security Engineer JobsSecurity Engineer E-3 Visa: Frequently Asked Questions
How do I find Security Engineer jobs with E-3 visa sponsorship?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for Australian professionals searching for U.S. roles with E-3 sponsorship. You can filter Security Engineer positions by employers who are already familiar with the E-3 process, which saves time compared to cold-applying and then educating hiring teams about the visa from scratch.
How much does it cost to get an E-3 visa?
Migrate Mate's E-3 filing service covers the entire process for $499, including the Labor Condition Application, visa document preparation, and consulate appointment guidance. Traditional immigration lawyers charge $2,000–$5,000+ for the same work. The E-3 has less paperwork than most work visas, so paying thousands for legal help is usually unnecessary.
Does a Security Engineer role qualify as an E-3 specialty occupation?
Yes, in most cases. The E-3 requires the position to normally require a bachelor's degree or higher in a specific field. Security Engineer roles typically require a degree in computer science, cybersecurity, or information technology, which satisfies the specialty occupation definition. The job description must state the degree as a requirement, not a preference.
How does the E-3 compare to the H-1B for Security Engineer roles?
The E-3 is significantly more predictable for Security Engineers. There's no annual lottery, no randomized selection, and the 10,500-slot annual allocation has never been exhausted, meaning you can apply at any time of year. The H-1B cap and lottery mean most applicants wait a year or more just to enter the pool. For Australian nationals, the E-3 is the faster and more reliable path.
What happens to my E-3 status if I change Security Engineer roles mid-employment?
Your E-3 is employer-specific, so changing roles or employers requires your new employer to file a fresh LCA with the DOL and you'll need a new visa stamp before re-entering the U.S. if your current stamp has expired. If you're already in the U.S., you can often begin work with the new employer once the new LCA is certified, but consult an E-3 specialist before making the move.
