This role likely qualifies for a Skilled Worker visa
SOC 2135 (85% match) is an eligible occupation, with a going rate of £48,500, and TE Connectivity is a licensed sponsor. That is our reading of the rules. Whether they issue a Certificate of Sponsorship is still their call.
This could also be SOC 2133 (IT business analysts, architects and systems designers, If the role is primarily systems design rather than security). We read the code off the advert, so it is our best guess, not the employer's.
