North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented a Software Product Design Research Engineer in New York in the field of Computer Science. His work has focused mainly on high performance computing and parallel processing for big data analysis but also touched on many other research topics. Specifically, he has developed a number of software applications for high performance computing and analytics. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Computer Science, including 3 peer-reviewed scientific journal articles, 15 presentations and publications at international conferences, symposia, and workshops, one best paper award, several technical reports and whitepapers, and 2 book chapters. His publications had been cited at least 157 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. He has also acted as peer-reviewer for a number of internationally acclaimed journals. As stated by one independent recommender, “[Client] is a highly skilled individual. His technical skills and expertise include software technologies, applications and environments, analytics, high-performance and parallel computing, financial market systems, programming languages, internet and networking protocols, computer gaming and graphics tools, and others. It is indeed rare to have such a thorough skillset with such breadth in computer science let alone find a computer scientist who also has extensive background in business development.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in 6 months and 18 days.
