Sniper

Auto-apply to new Embedded / Firmware Engineer jobs at H-1B sponsors

Sniper lets you filter for companies with a sponsorship record, using the employer's H-1B history in USCIS data or a posting that says it sponsors. When a new Embedded / Firmware Engineer job that passes your filters goes up on a Greenhouse, Workday or SmartRecruiters career site, Sniper fills in the application with your resume and submits it, often minutes after the job posts, so you can auto-apply with a visa sponsorship filter instead of checking sponsor career pages by hand. Sponsorship plans can change, so confirm with the recruiter early.

Sniper costs $25 a week for up to 500 applications, and your first 25 applications are free with no card.

H1B Sponsorship for Embedded / Firmware Engineers

Typical requirements

Most H1B embedded / firmware engineer positions require at minimum a bachelor's degree in a related field (computer science, engineering, mathematics, or equivalent). Some positions accept equivalent work experience in lieu of formal education.

Application timing

H1B cap season runs from April 1 each year. Companies that want to sponsor you typically need to start the process months in advance. Applying to positions in Q3-Q4 gives you the best chance of being considered for the next cap cycle.

Cap-exempt employers

Some employers (universities, research institutions, nonprofit organizations) are exempt from the annual H1B cap, meaning they can sponsor you at any time of year.
