How to land a SWE job at FAANG

I am currently a Mechanical Engineer at a no-name company. Have masters in electrical engineering. I am trying to learn programming with the goal to get into FAANG at a SWE level. What would all you Blind gurus suggest as a path to prepare for the interviews? Should I do masters again in CS or enroll in bootcamp?

Dont do CS MS if you have the chance to attend a bootcamp

I have heard that MS CS helps during immigration process. Is that true ? No plans to settle there for life but be able to apply for US roles. So, need a easy and tested route to h1b visa which is MS.
