Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding STEM OPT Authorization as a Computer Vision Engineer
Verify your CIP code before applying
Check that your degree's Classification of Instructional Programs code maps to a DHS-designated STEM field. Computer science (11.0701) and electrical engineering (14.0901) both qualify, but interdisciplinary degrees sometimes don't. Confirm with your DSO before you start applying.
Filter job postings by E-Verify status
Before submitting any application, confirm the employer is enrolled in E-Verify using the official E-Verify employer search. Employers not enrolled cannot legally onboard you on STEM OPT, regardless of how interested they are in hiring you.
Use O*NET to build your job description match
Computer Vision Engineer roles don't always carry a single SOC code. Pull the O*NET occupation profile for 15-1299 and related codes to identify the tasks and skills USCIS expects to see in your I-983 training plan before you negotiate your job description.
Negotiate your I-983 training plan at the offer stage
Don't wait until onboarding to draft your training plan. At the offer stage, ask hiring managers to confirm which computer vision projects and learning objectives will anchor your I-983. Vague plans get rejected by DSOs and delay your extension start date.
Find STEM OPT roles on Migrate Mate
Migrate Mate filters Computer Vision Engineer listings by E-Verify enrollment, so every employer you see is already cleared to hire STEM OPT students. Search by role, location, and STEM designation to skip the manual verification step entirely.
Account for the 60-day grace period in your timeline
If your initial OPT EAD expires before your STEM extension is approved, your 60-day grace period does not authorize work. Submit your STEM OPT extension application to your DSO at least 90 days before your current EAD end date to avoid a work gap.

Find Computer Vision Engineer JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does a Computer Vision Engineer role qualify for the STEM OPT extension?
Yes, if your employer assigns you to work that falls under a STEM-designated SOC code and your degree is in a DHS-approved STEM field. Computer Vision Engineer positions typically map to SOC 15-1299 or 15-1252. Your DSO confirms the degree-to-role alignment when approving your I-20 STEM OPT recommendation, so bring the job description to that meeting.
What E-Verify requirement applies to my STEM OPT employer?
Your employer must be enrolled in E-Verify before your STEM OPT start date. Enrollment after you've already started work doesn't satisfy the requirement. You can verify enrollment using the official E-Verify employer search tool. If your employer isn't listed, they need to enroll through E-Verify before you can legally begin working under the STEM extension.
What goes into the I-983 training plan for a Computer Vision Engineer?
Your I-983 must connect your computer vision work directly to your STEM degree. List specific learning goals tied to the job, such as deep learning model development, image segmentation pipelines, or sensor fusion algorithms. USCIS expects a plan showing how the role advances your STEM knowledge, not a generic job description. Your employer signs the form, and your DSO approves it before your extension starts.
Does cap-gap protection apply if I'm a Computer Vision Engineer on STEM OPT?
Yes. If your employer files an H-1B petition on your behalf during the cap-subject filing period and your STEM OPT EAD expires on September 30, cap-gap extends your work authorization automatically through October 1 if your petition is selected. Your employer must file before your EAD expires for cap-gap to apply. USCIS issues updated guidance on cap-gap each fiscal year.
How do I find Computer Vision Engineer employers who accept STEM OPT students?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for this search. Listings are filtered by E-Verify enrollment, so every Computer Vision Engineer role you see is already cleared for STEM OPT hiring. You can sort by location, company size, and role type without needing to manually verify each employer's E-Verify status before applying.
