Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a US citizen for these jobs?
Not necessarily. While some positions require US citizenship or work authorization, many companies hire contractors globally or sponsor visas. Each listing specifies its requirements. 'Remote US' often means US time zone availability rather than citizenship.
What time zone overlap is typically required?
Most US remote positions expect significant overlap with US business hours, typically 4-6 hours during ET (Eastern Time) or PT (Pacific Time). Some companies are more flexible, requiring only specific meeting times for collaboration.
Are US remote Elixir salaries higher?
Yes, US-based companies typically offer higher salaries compared to global averages. Senior Elixir developers at US companies often earn $150,000-$220,000+ USD, with additional benefits like equity, health insurance, and 401(k) matching.
Can I work as a contractor for US companies?
Many US companies hire international contractors through platforms like Deel, Remote.com, or direct contractor agreements. This is common for companies that want global talent without establishing foreign entities.
What are the top US cities hiring Elixir developers?
Major tech hubs like San Francisco, New York, Austin, Seattle, and Denver have strong Elixir communities. However, since these are remote positions, the company headquarters location matters less than their remote work policies and time zone requirements.
