SOC 2133 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 39% sure that is the right code. Checkout.com 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 2134 (Programmers and software development professionals) or SOC 3533 (Financial and accounting technicians). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
