Good to see you're committed to Canada. The answer is, yes, you do need a work permit to work in the U.S.A., and becoming a citizen won't change that.

Canada and the US are different countries. Your immigration status in Canada does not give you any immigration benefits in the US. You cannot LEGALLY work in the US as either a Canadian PR or even a Canadia citizen. If you want to work in the US, go apply to the US for whatever visa you qualify for

You need a visa that allows you to work in the US.
