Very few visas have minimum qualification requirements. The diversity visa requires that you completed high school (or equivalent), the H1b that you have a degree (or equivalent experience) and there is a special allocation for those with a master's from a US institution. The US does not have skills-based immigration like, for example, Canada or Australia but rather a niche-based system.

From what you've written so far, you wouldn't qualify for an H1b. But given that these are so scarce anyway, that's not much of a loss.
