Work in Data Analytics in Thailand?

I am attending my last year of University pursuing a degree in Data Analytics in the USA. I want to see a way back to Thailand after University. I used to go to a Thai University while studying abroad(I was there under a student visa and I am not a Thai citizen). I miss the night markets, walking around at night safely, the food, the shopping, and hanging out with my friends there.

**My Qualifications**

* A four year degree in Data Analytics.
* I have experience working in the USA as an IT Data Analytics for banking.
* Experience with SQL, Power Bi and Python.
* Went to a Thai international college for some of my business and elective classes.
* I am a US citizen.

First thing I am looking into is to find work in Thailand. Looking on linkedin, glassdoor, and google, I do see jobs openings for my field in English. Though I don’t know how to tell if they would hire/or want to deal with the work visa required; especially as a non citizen. **Is there any type of company more likely to need and hire English speaking non citizens; to narrow down my search? (I don’t Thai well enough for business yet.)**

I was thinking of looking at my Thai international University network; though they didn’t offer my degree. So, most of the companies in that network are looking for other majors. So, I was thinking about looking at the company hiring, then researching if they have any position that would be up my alley. **Would this be a good idea?**

I also hear that a lot of people become digital nomads. I don’t know how this would work or if it would work long term. Most people I heard go for 60 days or longer depending on their visa type, then make a visa run. I also heard of a Thai elite visa and other long term visas as well. However, this relies on one, finding a fully online job and two ,a job that allows me to work out of the country. **Any advice on where to look for that would be appreciated?**
