Yes, you are still eligible to go through h1b process, however, becoz ur opt is expired, you will be on F1 extension status that means you cannot work from the day your opt expires till Oct 1 if h1b is approved.

Yo dont have to leave, can stay in US till october to work on h1b. Not sure how it'll affect if you start using TPS EAD during that time.

I would just join a college and use your TPS ead to work so you maintain your F1 and still have the job.
