Does working as a remote employee from outside Canada for a company in Canada help me get professional immigration or any other type of immigration?

Greetings Everyone,
I am an undergraduate student from Bangladesh with 9 months of professional experience as a Part Time Research Assistant along with software development responsibilities in the AI division of a USA-based AI company called MyMedicalHUB in its Bangladesh office. I am currently in the final year of my undergraduate degree in Computer Science & Engineering and am interested to immigrate to Canada. By the time I graduate, I will have almost 2 years of experience in my current role.

My question is if I should apply to a remote job in a tech role in Canada wondering if that might help me get immigration in the professional immigration program or any other type of immigration program (I'm not sure which one, please help) and if I'd need a work permit.
I was also thinking if I should start applying for remote Canadian jobs or I should aim for higher studies in Canada for getting better chances at immigration.

Working remotely for a Canadian company gives you points for foreign experience but not Canadian experience. It will only help if you work for the company for a year and then see if they will go through an Inter Company Transfer. The company needs to prove no Canadian could do the job. Can be hard to do if you are a new graduate.

You can look at Express Entry for immigration. As for studying that is your choice. Look at masters programs.
