The hard part is that a lot of American companies require employees to be physically in the United States. Not only for tax purposes, but also for client confidentiality. When I wanted to go to Mexico for a week and work there, I was told I couldn't, even though my position is fully remote, because of privacy and security reasons. That's going to be one of your biggest hurdles.

Sorry for sounding overly negative, but that won't be an easy thing to achieve.
