Only if the position is primarily managerial or executive when the whole year is counted. Seasonal weeks operating equipment weigh against it and must be shown honestly; if they dominate, the role or the plan must change.
Primarily is measured across the year, not the busiest week
USCIS looks at what the employee mainly does. A drainage contractor's owner who spends March to May and September to November in the cab, and the winter estimating, hiring and negotiating, may still be primarily managerial if the managerial duties, measured across twelve months, are the majority and are the reason the position exists. Supervising two crews of operators through foremen, setting prices, signing contracts and controlling the budget are managerial functions; laying tile is not, even for the owner.
A file that shows 60 percent management and 40 percent operation, with a U.S. plan that shifts the operating work to hired crews, is credible. A file that claims 95 percent management for a man whose payroll code says operator invites a request for evidence and, if the claim is untrue, worse.
The right correction, where the numbers do not work, is to hire an operator in the United States before filing, not to hide the seat time.
