I am visiting San Fran in Sept this year and I am looking to meet up with some start ups.I am a senior dev/devops engineer that only worked for startups. Currently in Melb, AU might be looking to move to US.

Have you thought of doing some research? There are lots of startups, but which ones would you be interested in working for? Which ones could benefit from your skills and experience?

Perhaps connecting with people in your field, e.g. through forums for the products / frameworks / languages / whatever you use might open some doors.

You might also want to edit your post, put some information in there that would attract the attention of would-be employers. As it currently stands, I think quite a few people would be put off by it.

How do you plan to move to the US?

The E3 visa for Australians makes it really easy for us to move to the US.

Ah, really? If you don't mind, what degree to you have and what's the 'specialty occupation'?

Yeah, sorry - you do need a bachelor's degree. It needs to be somewhat relevant to your job but doesn't have to be exactly - they also take into account your work experience.

For example, I did my bachelor in CS but I'm a designer & that was ok.

"Specialty occupation" just means anything requiring a degree really. So someone wanting to come to the US & get a job in a cafe would likely be void for example.
