Comments

Exactly I am not having problem but I am searching solution to two things, if you can help me out.

1 - How to go SF ? What are the easiest immigration path ways to SF ? 2 - I Am PHP dev (Core) what should I learn more ?

There are a lot of great start ups that are willing to bring brilliant engineers here to Silicon Valley. But these days start ups are no looking for "PHP developers" these days, start ups are looking for smart, energetic developers who are not just focussed on one language. I don't think I know any developer who is coding in only One specific language right now. Most important thing is your experience and domain knowledge.

Remember language is just a tool and you should be ready to learn a new tool within a few days/weeks. Also I would recommend to start contributing to open source projects, or start your own open source project at GitHub for example.

Indicate your knowledge and interests. Participate in discussions and connect to new people with similar interests. For example if you are the smartest engineer that has a great experience in OCR (optical character recognition) and you contribute a lot in open source projects that build frameworks for OCR like Open CV + you have your blog where you share some thoughts on OCR and write some tutorials. I'm sure sometime you will be contacted by Silicon Valley start up that needs you.
