You may be able to help, but may require you to move and apply for citizenship in a country that has a very mature space program due to ITAR (International Traffic in Arms Regulation) and EAR (Export Administration Regulation). After you do get citizenship you might be able to work for a private space company (e.g. Tesla) but if you want to work for a government agency or government contractor you will have to eventually get a security clearance.
Now with that out of the way, you would need to look around at the jobs available and check to see if you meet the requirements for the type of work you want to do. If not you can start working on those skill sets now so you may be eligible later on to apply for the job.
I would recommend using your web development skills to help you get in the door as you work on enhancing the skill sets you want for other opportunities.
