It's a different country, with vastly different areas. If you have experienced the culture and like it, go for it. But don't come for money. The work culture is insane, worse than Germany. You get almost no holidays. Data protection is terrible. Your information will get leaked. Your salary and other stuff is likely available for companies to buy. You will get spam text messages and phone calls, no matter how careful you are. I never answer my phone any more. The education system is worse, if you decide to stay and have kids (even if you don't plan to, you might meet someone). Everything is in US units. Almost nothing is metric. It's a learning curve that - especially as an engineer - could be annoying. Air quality and noise in cities, because of all the cars. Some states don't really have emissions testing, or even vehicle testing like the TÜV. Healthcare can be excellent if you're in a well-paying job. But it's also tied to your job. Just some things I can think of off the top of my head. But then again, don't let me stop you. Worst case, you could always return to Germany, or move somewhere else. The great thing about being a software developer is being in demand, and how easy it is to get visas and work (comparatively).
