We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . We review de novo, Vasquez v. County of L.A., 307 F.3d 884, 889 (9th Cir.2002), and we affirm.

Summary judgment was proper because after defendant met its burden of providing a legitimate nondiscriminatory reason for not hiring Macias, he failed to demonstrate that defendant’s reason was a mere pretext for discrimination. See Wallis v. J.R. Simplot Co., 26 F.3d 885, 892 (9th Cir.1994) (rejecting plaintiffs claims of discrimination based on national origin and age because plaintiff did not provide evidence rebutting defendant’s legitimate explanation for its actions).

Macias’ remaining contentions lack merit.
