How do I get into a US company from India as a PMM? What are the major skill based requirements?

I have been working as a product marketing manager for the past few months and I feel the PMM role in India is not in a mature state and honestly am extremely exhausted of that immature job role. I am doing A to Z but not able to take ownership on the revenue part as much as I want to or even in the strategic part. I feel US is a more mature market in this aspect that's why I wanted to know. Thanks!
