I did exactly this, and have been working remotely for a Californian company as of two months ago. All I had to do was open a sole proprietorship (a trivial errand) and a USD bank account (technically optional), and report in via email on my first day.

As a self-employed contractor, my costs are lower (working from home), I get myriad tax breaks, and my salary is not even comparable to what I could expect locally, even with having to pay for my own health and dental. I can't see myself ever going back to working locally. Hell, I have been thinking about moving into the mountains recently, just for the scenery.

I'd love to learn more about your setup. Do you know of any resources for those looking to do the same?

Are you US based? Are you sure you are paying your taxes correctly? Creating an LLC is simple but handling the accounting is the complicated bit.
