Thanks for asking, sorry for the delay I was checking with the bureaucracy what the answer is (as we are technically government subcontractors we don't make the rules).

My understanding is we do sponsor H1s. The vast majority of nationalities are fine, however we do have on-premises computing on a Department of Energy facility, and they bar citizens of the following countries from being granted an account on their systems: https://www.state.gov/state-sponsors-of-terrorism/ so a candidate with those nationalities would be at a disadvantage.

Unfortunately for reasons outside our control, remote work is only possible from residents of the following US states:

Arizona

California

Colorado

Florida

Hawaii

Maryland

New Mexico

Texas

Virginia

Washington

Washington DC




Thanks for the reply, frossie. I do understand fair share of government bureaucracy as I'm currently employed as one. :-)

I think, I'll throw my hat in the ring.
