I wasn't referring to your company, but to the attitude of the companies in my (EU) area. What your company is doing far exceeds what I saw here and saddens me to a degree that I don't live in the US.

Consider applying for remote jobs at US based companies. It's a lot easier now than it was 3 years ago - lots of places in my area that would have previously hired only for local offices are now accepting full time remote from a wide swath of areas.
The biggest challenge is usually the tax implications for the company of making a foreign hire - it's hard to be the first remote hire from a new region/country (mainly because it's really expensive up front to get a wrap on the legal side) but relatively easy to be the second.
I'd avoid the traditional US hotspots (ex: silicon valley/NYC) and go for places in the south/southeast (Atlanta/Austin/Raleigh/Tampa/Nashville).
