What sources could I find potential jobs in Germany for an American who wants to work and live there for a year or two? The only way I could ever afford to travel to Europe is to work there. Any thoughts?

Did you notice that you worded your questions differently? You got international answers on the other Q, but only US answers on this one...if that doesn't interest you, then don't bother leaving the US (if you wonder why Kala got so many negative ratings you may be better off staying at home too)...check my answer re. Berlitz (aka work-permit-heaven) on your other Q.

Besides working on a military base you could apply at international companies based in the USA with branches in Germany - you probably won't need a work permit that way.
If you qualify for german universities you can apply there: fees are low compared to the USA and you are allowed to work (as far as I know up to 20 hrs / week during the semester and full time during semester breaks). Knowledge of german language will be necessary to apply - and in most cases also to find a job.

If you go to Germany as a visitor, you only can stay for 3 month.
The best will be to get a job with an US company, but than you are not free to travel, only at the weekends may be. You also need a place to stay, what will be expensive. Jobs for students are not easy to find.
A general working permission you won't get from the German Agency for work.
The best will be, go to Germany for a couple weeks to find out if you like it.

Apply for work through the government, working on base (or post) with military servicemembers.
Any part of any application process that requires a fee is not the real deal.

the college in munich-schwabing has a international programme, with some classes held in english, more desirable typically than not for germans to advance their english yet as well for non-german audio device to attend. munich is international adequate that you may have a superb time yet for a pastime you'll opt to study german or search for for a pastime that calls for english basically.
