SOC 3112 is an eligible occupation, but we are only 54% sure that is the right code. Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a licensed sponsor, so if the code fits, the role should qualify. Check the occupation eligibility rules against what the job actually involves.
Worth checking: this could also be SOC 5246 (Electrical service and maintenance mechanics and repairers), which is not on the eligible-occupation list. Ask Amazon Web Services (AWS) what the duties actually are.

We work on the most challenging problems, with thousands of variables impacting the supply chain — and we’re looking for talented people who want to help.
