Whatever you do, make sure you ask for and get the salary that goes with your experience. In other words, make sure you don't work for too little money.

Look for work in:
-control systems contracting
-mechanical contractig
-university mechanical system engineer
-consulting firm engineer
- etc...

Look up your salary requirement on engineersalary.com (or engineersalaries.com) and make sure you get paid for work in California. Some areas in California are extremely expensive. You may have to make MUCH more there than in other areas to survice equally.

Apply for an take the EIT exam. Later, go for your PE license.

fady3005, note the forum: "How to Improve Myself to Get Ahead in My Work" talks often about this subject.

This process takes time regardless of where you come from. You will need to pass the 'Fundamentals of Engineering' exam to prove your education was up to speed. You should be able to find work as a contracting engineer or engineering designer at first, if you can't immediately get work as an engineer. After 4 years of experience under a US professional engineer, you are eligible to sit the PE exam. At this point everything is supposed to be cake.
Hang out with a bunch of native english speakers and tune up your grammer and everything will work out fine! Good luck.
