INTRODUCTION
Founded in 1977 as the Senior Care Action Network, SCAN began with a simple but radical idea: that older adults deserve to stay healthy and independent. That belief was championed by a group of community activists we still honor today as the “12 Angry Seniors.” Their mission continues to guide everything we do.
Today, SCAN is a nonprofit health organization serving more than 500,000 people across Arizona, California, Nevada, New Mexico, Texas, and Washington, with over $8 billion in annual revenue. With nearly five decades of experience, we have built a distinctive, values-driven platform dedicated to improving care for older adults.
Our work spans Medicare Advantage, fully integrated care models, primary care, care for the most medically and socially complex populations, and next-generation care delivery models. Across all of this, we are united by a shared commitment: combining compassion with discipline, innovation with stewardship, and growth with integrity.
At SCAN, we believe scale should strengthen—not dilute—our mission. We are building the future of care for older adults, grounded in purpose, accountability, and respect for the people and communities we serve.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding OPT Sponsorship as a Mobile Engineer
Target companies with active H-1B histories
Companies that file H-1B petitions for engineers regularly are your strongest long-term bet. Their hiring processes already account for visa timelines, and mobile engineering roles appear consistently in USCIS disclosure data from large tech employers.
Confirm STEM OPT eligibility before applying
Mobile engineering roles qualify for the 24-month STEM OPT extension if your degree is in computer science, software engineering, or a related CIP-code field. Verify your degree qualifies with your DSO before counting on the full 36-month window.
Highlight platform-specific depth on your resume
Employers distinguish generalists from specialists quickly. Lead with your primary platform, whether iOS with Swift or Android with Kotlin, and include measurable outcomes like app performance improvements or reduction in crash rates to stand out.
Apply before your OPT start date, not after
Most hiring timelines run six to ten weeks from application to offer. Starting your search at least three months before your current authorization expires gives you enough runway to clear background checks and onboarding without a gap.
Address OPT timing proactively with recruiters
Bring up your OPT authorization and STEM extension eligibility early in the recruiter screen. Showing you understand your own timeline reduces friction and signals maturity, which matters when a hiring manager is weighing sponsorship commitment down the road.
Build a portfolio that demonstrates production-level work
App Store or Google Play links carry more weight than GitHub repos alone. Shipped products prove you can deliver end-to-end, which directly addresses the implicit risk concern employers have when considering candidates who will need future sponsorship.
Mobile Engineer OPT: Frequently Asked Questions
Do Mobile Engineer roles qualify for the STEM OPT extension?
Yes, mobile engineering roles qualify for the 24-month STEM OPT extension when your underlying degree is in a STEM-designated field such as computer science, software engineering, or information technology. Combined with your initial 12-month OPT period, that gives you up to 36 months of work authorization. Your DSO must recommend the extension in SEVIS, and your employer must be enrolled in E-Verify.
Can I work as a mobile engineer as a contractor or on a 1099 during OPT?
OPT requires that your employment be directly related to your degree field, but F-1 regulations do not prohibit contract or freelance arrangements in principle. However, self-employment is heavily scrutinized. You must be able to demonstrate a structured relationship with an identifiable employer and show genuine oversight of your work. Most immigration attorneys recommend a formal W-2 employment arrangement to avoid status issues.
How do I find Mobile Engineer jobs that are open to OPT candidates?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for F-1 OPT students and filters mobile engineering roles by visa sponsorship willingness, so you are not wasting applications on companies that will not consider OPT. Searching a general job board gives you no reliable signal about which employers are actually open to candidates who need work authorization support.
Will employers sponsor an H-1B after my OPT ends if I am a mobile engineer?
Many mid-size and large technology companies do sponsor H-1B visas for mobile engineers, and the role category appears consistently in USCIS H-1B approval data. Sponsorship willingness varies by company size, budget, and immigration policy. Targeting employers with a documented history of H-1B filings for software and mobile engineering roles significantly improves your odds of a sponsored transition after OPT ends.
Does working on both iOS and Android make me more competitive on OPT?
Cross-platform experience is genuinely valued, particularly at startups and mid-market companies that want one engineer covering multiple surfaces. However, for roles at larger companies, deep specialization in one platform typically outweighs broad familiarity with both. If you are early in your OPT period, leading with your stronger platform and treating the second as a documented secondary skill is usually the more effective positioning strategy.
