I don’t take any job where I would have to wake up from sleep to handle something. Some jobs have stated on-call, but the consequence of not handling a 3am call is nothing. In which case you make more money/hour by not responding to night requests.
The products I’ve worked on in my career largely operate on US business hours, so this has never been a real issue for me.
If I were receiving calls about work more than once a year, I’d quit.

SWE job elsewhere in the world (or maybe if you are on H1B in USA) implies 24/7 oncall duties. or you and your family get deported where you come from. and you can't just quit. you quit, your visa immediately reworked, as tied to your employer. and again. deportation.
