DO ur same job for one more year. And join consultancy before ur OPT expires ( about 6 month before), so that they will file ur H1B.
If you do that, being start up developer you can ask and inteact much more with your senior people, and you can learn more.
If you go to consultancy and get jon -- u will have more than 6 yrs of experience directly which makes you akward. 
I had same situation, but I left my startup job and joined consultancy -- I feel difficult and isolated. 

So try to stay where u r and ask them to file ur H1B, its pretty direct and easy way.
