OUR HIRING PROCESS:
- We will review your application against our job requirements. We do not employ machine learning technologies during this phase as we believe every human deserves attention from another human. We do not think machines can evaluate your application quite like our seasoned recruiting professionals—every person is unique. We promise to give your candidacy a fair and detailed assessment.
- We may then invite you to submit a video interview for the review of the hiring manager. This video interview is often followed by a test or short project that allows us to determine whether you will be a good fit for the team.
- At this point, we will invite you to interview with our hiring manager and/or the interview team. Please note: We do not conduct interviews via text message, Telegram, etc. and we never hire anyone into our organization without having met you face-to-face (or via Zoom). You will be invited to come to a live meeting or Zoom, where you will meet our INFUSE team.
- From there on, it's decision time! If you are still excited to join INFUSE and we like you as much, we will have a conversation about your offer. We do not make offers without giving you the opportunity to speak with us live.
INFUSE is committed to complying with applicable data privacy and security laws and regulations. For more information, please see our Privacy Policy.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a General Engineer
Align your degree to the specific engineering discipline
USCIS evaluates whether your degree field directly relates to the job duties, not just engineering broadly. A civil engineering degree supporting a structural analysis role passes; a general studies degree typically doesn't. Pull the job's O*NET profile to match your transcript before applying.
Verify prevailing wage tier before accepting an offer
Your employer's LCA must certify wages at or above the DOL prevailing wage for your location and role level. Run the OFLC Wage Search using the specific SOC title your employer intends to file under, so you can spot underpayment before the offer is finalized.
Find sponsors with active LCA filing history on Migrate Mate
Target employers who have already certified LCAs for engineering roles rather than cold-applying and hoping. Migrate Mate lists U.S. employers with verified LCA sponsorship history, searchable by role and city, so you can focus your applications on proven sponsors.
Treat Canadian and Mexican engineers as TN-eligible first
If you hold citizenship in Canada or Mexico, engineers are listed on the USMCA profession schedule, letting you apply for TN status directly at a port of entry with an offer letter and credentials. You skip the H-1B lottery entirely, though TN doesn't allow dual intent.
Request employer timing details before the H-1B lottery
The H-1B cap runs on an annual cycle with a registration window early in the calendar year. Confirm your employer intends to register you in that window, not wait until after selection. Missed registration means waiting a full year, so get written confirmation of their timeline upfront.
Prepare a PERM-ready credential package from day one
If your employer plans to sponsor a green card through PERM labor certification, DOL requires documented evidence that no qualified U.S. worker was available. Keep copies of your foreign credential evaluation, state PE licensure if applicable, and any specialized certifications to support the EB-2 or EB-3 filing.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a General Engineer role qualify as a specialty occupation for H-1B purposes?
It depends on how the employer defines the role. USCIS requires that the position normally require at least a bachelor's degree in a directly related engineering field. Generic titles like 'General Engineer' face more scrutiny than specific ones like 'Mechanical Engineer' or 'Civil Engineer.' Your employer should document that the duties require theoretical and practical application of a specific engineering discipline, not just general technical skills.
Which visa types realistically cover General Engineer positions?
H-1B is the most common path for engineers from most countries, requiring a specialty occupation and an employer-filed Labor Condition Application. Canadian and Mexican nationals can use TN visa status under USMCA, which has no lottery and is renewed every three years. Australians may qualify for the E-3 visa, which also requires an LCA and a specialty occupation determination. Each route requires a qualifying degree in a relevant engineering field.
How can I find General Engineer jobs where employers are already willing to sponsor?
Migrate Mate lists employers with verified LCA filing histories for engineering roles, so you can browse companies that have already gone through the sponsorship process rather than guessing at willingness. Filtering by city and role type lets you identify active sponsors in your target market before you invest time in an application.
Does a foreign engineering degree count toward the specialty occupation requirement?
Yes, but it must be evaluated. USCIS accepts foreign degrees that are equivalent to a U.S. bachelor's degree in a relevant engineering field. You'll need a credential evaluation from a recognized service, and three years of qualifying work experience can substitute for each missing year of formal education under USCIS's equivalency standard. A three-year engineering degree from Australia or the UK is typically accepted as equivalent.
What happens to my H-1B status if my engineering project ends and my employer has no immediate backfill?
You have a 60-day grace period after your employment ends to find a new sponsor, file for a change of status, or depart the U.S. During that window you can't work, but you aren't immediately out of status. A new employer can file an H-1B transfer petition during this period, and you can begin working once the petition is filed, not just approved, under H-1B portability rules.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored General Engineer jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
