I tried for O, but was told my resume was not strong enough, even with a PhD from a good European university, and several a-rank publications.

Have you tried for an EB1-A green card? Contact one of these online lawyers (wegreened/hooyou), and they will evaluate your CV for free. I personally know a few (non-US) people who avoided the H1B problem this way.
