Summary

In FY2025, Infinera Corporation filed 34 H-1B petitions with a 100% certification rate. Over its 15-year history in the program since 2010, the California-based technology company has filed 589 total H-1B petitions with an 80.48% certification rate and minimal denial (0.85%) and withdrawal (4.24%) rates.

Infinera's H-1B sponsorship is heavily concentrated in software and engineering roles. Software Developers represent 39% of all filings (230 petitions), followed by Electronics Engineers (105 filings) and Software Quality Assurance Analysts (53 filings). The remaining sponsored roles include Computer Hardware Engineers and miscellaneous engineering positions. This occupational mix reflects the company's focus on optical networking and telecommunications hardware development.

The company's filing volume has been cyclical, peaking at 88 petitions in 2016 and 87 in 2018, then declining through 2022 before rebounding to recent activity levels. The strong 2025 certification rate and recent filing uptick suggest renewed hiring momentum in technical positions.
