I'm not in position to hire someone so I won't hire you but, as already said by the others, I'm pretty sure you can be hired for a developer job.
CS degree is not necessary. I don't have one, I'm a former biologist self-taught in programming, now in a software engineer position. Several of my coworkers are in similar situations. My lead architect is a self-taught too, and he's damn good.
What you need is to be able to show problem-solving skills, understanding of programming concepts, ability to write some pragmatic working code in one language, ability to quickly search and find relevant solutions when required, ability to learn and understand fast.
With this skillset, not only you don't need a degree, but you can even be hired more easily than somebody who owns one.
