You're best option is finding remote jobs on your own. Recruiters work for employers--not prospective employees. You're the product in their business model, and they likely don't understand your value as well as an employer can.
A lot of remote companies are early or mid-stage, and they list directly on StackOverflow. I aggregate those in an easy-to-use format on my site here:

Another fantastic site is https://weworkremotely.com
Since you can reach out to the companies this way directly, you have an advantage in that you can craft a cover letter and communicate directly with a person of influence.
