Sponsors, but it's cap-subject — you still face the weighted lottery (~61% per draw at Level IV). Good if you win; have a cap-exempt backup on your list.

Employer immigration record

from this employer's Department of Labor filings

Files H-1B transfers

4 transfer filings in the last year, covering 4 workers. Median labor-condition decision: 7 days. An employer that already files transfers is one that can take over an existing H-1B.

Sourced from Department of Labor LCA, PERM and prevailing-wage disclosure data. Employer matching is by name, so figures may be split across an employer's legal entities. Absence of a filing means none appears in our copy of the data, not that none exists.

About the role

  • The Data Platform team is distributed, not distant.
  • We operate async-first across US and Canada working hours with intentional synchronous touchpoints when speed demands it
  • The scope is large, the mission is real, and the work is technically demanding

Responsibilities

  • Within the first quarter, identify a compression opportunity with AI-assisted analysis, validate it with a proof of concept, and ship it to production for a measurable storage-cost reduction with zero availability impact
  • Within 90 days, coordinate a schema change across three product-engineering teams in parallel and deliver the platform changes ahead of a product deadline so a customer feature ships on time
  • Written-first culture: technical specs and decision docs drive alignment before code
  • Our process is designed to understand how you think, solve problems, and deliver impact, while allowing you to evaluate TRM.
  • We are building a safer world.

Company info

  • The Data Platform team is distributed, not distant. We operate async-first across US and Canada working hours with intentional synchronous touchpoints when speed demands it
  • We own the petabyte-scale data infrastructure that powers TRM's products. The scope is large, the mission is real, and the work is technically demanding
  • Team culture is product-focused, customer-focused, coaching-oriented, scrappy when needed, and process-oriented when executing against OKRs
  • You will work alongside senior engineers who care deeply about their craft and hold high standards for code quality, operational excellence, and cross-team communication
  • Team Operating Rhythms:
  • Distributed, not distant: most collaboration happens async in Slack, Notion, and GitHub, and meetings are purposeful and minimal
  • Primary timezone overlap across US and Canada working hours; our north star is no IC spending more than 3-4 hours per week in meetings
  • We are a high-velocity, high-ownership team that expects clarity, follow-through, and impact.
