I'm based out of India but I really need to work in the U.S., preferably on the West Coast (Silicon Valley, Bay Area).
I'm willing to work with any startup which can sponsor my visa and living costs, plus a nominal allowance. I'm not asking for a huge salary package and I'm willing to work without any equity (though I'd prefer to have both).
I could do this for a year, and after that, I would prefer to work for whatever the going rate is in the Valley for my skill set.
I ran a web development and computer hardware business until 2010 and I'm really good with technology. I have a Bachelors degree in Computer Science and I'm studying for the Chartered Financial Analyst program.
I'm working as a financial analyst covering the US TMT sector for about a year, and have worked for one of the largest American banks in India, on the technology team backing the Investment Banking division.
I'm fairly good with numbers and would ideally like a job at a VC firm or an incubator, so I can work with as many startups as I can, working on multiple ideas. I could also work as a Business Analyst at any startup who needs someone with great analytical skills. I'm a CFA L1 right now, and I have broad knowledge about the internet, technology, e-commerce, capital markets, private equity, venture capital and startups.
I have some experience with Python, PHP and JS, but I haven't coded in years. I'd prefer to work in a technology oriented role, which also requires knowledge of business development, marketing, product strategy etc. I'm basically a hustler who cannot code anymore.
I've had the chance to do an MBA from some top B-schools in India, but I don't think it's worth it.
If there's any way this could work out for any of you currently hiring someone for this kind of role, please email me at:

I'd be very grateful.
Note: I don't want to pursue my Masters from the U.S. just yet, because I don't think that the time or money investment is worth it.
I'm sure at least some of you would find my skills beneficial.
I would love to intern/work full time at Y Combinator or Techstars, but I don't think they accept Indian candidates due to the visa hassles.
Also, huge fan of Paul Graham, Peter Thiel and Elon Musk.
