What ways exist for dev from Eastern Europe, move SF?

I am currently living in Ukraine. I have been a developer for two years and am looking for ways to move to the US, specifically to San Francisco. What is the way, from your experience, to realize this?

I think you're dropping off the 'new' list without any responses. Try:

* Look for the Who's Hiring threads (every 3 months)

* Two years is not long, so be prepared to accept a junior position. (I don't know what other experience you have.)

* Have you considered other countries like Germany or Estonia (where I live) which have lots of Ukrainian folk and great startups? I can personally recommend Estonia. I know SF is "the" scene, especially if aiming at riches, but there are difficulties immigrating into the US these days.
