Top H-1B sponsors for hardware and embedded
Every employer, ranked by LCAs for hardware and embedded roles certified between October 2024 and June 2026. An LCA is the filing an employer makes with the Department of Labor before an H-1B worker starts or continues in a role; it is not a visa approval or a hire. Across all 3,799 employers, 28,946 hardware and embedded LCAs were certified; 38% were for new H-1B employment and 49% at wage levels I and II. Companies whose job boards FiledFor checks link to their page and show their open jobs.
Ranked by the employer named on the filing. A company that files under several legal entities, like Amazon, appears once for each.

About these numbers
An LCA (Labor Condition Application) is a filing an employer makes with the U.S. Department of Labor before hiring or keeping an H-1B worker in a role at a stated wage. It is not a visa approval or a hire. Counts here are LCAs certified between October 2024 and June 2026, by worksite, including some the employer later withdrew. Each filing counts once, in one field: by its occupation code, or by the job title when the code covers several fields (Software Developers is used for software, ML and data roles alike). The job board and company pages count a shared code toward every field it covers, so their numbers can be higher. Sponsor lists include every employer that filed; the ones whose job boards FiledFor checks link to their company page and show their open jobs.
