You don't need to be married to get a work permit or even a open work permit.
Work permits in Taiwan are issued to your employer not you. You are give residency rights for as long as you work for your employer. Change jobs and you new employer has to apply for a new work permit to hire you.
An Open Work Permit is possible for people who have had an ARC for 4 years and can prove they can support themselves plus climb a mountain of red tape.
You can get a work permit and ARC with a two year degree and a Tesol certificate. You may have to rpint out the regulation that stipulates you can do this and show it to the people involved but it has been done.
"Here is the offical Taiwan Bureau of Employmnet website.
Article 40
