I’ve been living in Europe for 7 years and working remotely for US companies. Here is what I do (please tell me about better ideas!):
1. Apply to US remote jobs on the east coast and mention working from Europe. I’ve had a lot of luck overlapping for half a day. Not so great in a leadership position though.
2. Contact colleagues you like working with at US companies and see if they’re open to working with you. Someone vouching for you on the inside helps a lot.
3. Specialize in something valuable, pitch contract work, and try to convert that to full-time (or part-time or whatever).
Plug: my friend and I made a thing to address this problem because we have it too:
You say how much you want to make, where you work from, etc., and it emails you when a company wants to hire someone like you. If you try it please let me know what you think.
