This role may qualify for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2137 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 28% sure that is the right code. Roboyo is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
This could also be SOC 2139 (Information technology professionals not elsewhere classified) or SOC 3131 (IT operations technicians). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
