I find myself currently located in Argentina, and I'm not a citizen of the United States. However, my current goal is to secure a part-time job based in the US or find US-based clients for freelancing opportunities.
I have nearly 2 years of experience gained through a remote position with a company in my home country. I also have a university degree and have worked on some projects.
I’m experienced in front-end development with technologies such as React, TypeScript, Redux, Zustand, Figma, some 3D frameworks, and more. I’m also a fast learner and learning stuff in my free time.
My ultimate goal is to earn a minimum of 44k USD per year while working remotely, devoting 2-3 days a week (8 hours a day) to actual coding tasks. While I am more than willing to be available and responsive to messages throughout the week, my dedicated cording days would be, for example, Monday to Wednesday.
What’s the most effective and realistic approach to achieving this goal? Is it plausible for me, as a non-US citizen, to convince a US company to hire me as a remote developer? Alternatively, would freelancing be a more viable option?
If any of you have alternative suggestions on how I can reach an income of 44k+ USD annually while working part-time (20 hours per week), particularly with a focus on US-based job opportunities or US-based clients for freelancing, I would greatly appreciate your input.
I also managed rather a complex project and it was all good, so I think I have some good experience.
Thank you all in advance for your valuable advice and experiences
At the time(a few years ago), I found them all through craigslist and indeed.
