Twilio's careers site lists 13 hiring countries: the United States, India, Colombia, Ireland, the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, Spain, Australia, Estonia, Mexico, Brazil, and Singapore. Every posting binds the hire to one named country, so roles are country-bound rather than hire-from-anywhere. Some narrow it further: India roles specify Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Maharashtra, or New Delhi, and UK roles state the role is remote and based in the UK.
Yes, and it varies by role. Roughly a third of Twilio's current postings carry an explicit US state or metro exclusion. The most common clause rules out hires in CA, CT, NJ, NY, PA, and WA.

Only for US and Canada roles. Nearly every US posting and all Canadian postings carry a band, while Twilio publishes no salary band on any posting outside those two countries. Twilio states the ranges apply only to candidates residing in a listed set of US jurisdictions due to local requirements, and that compensation for candidates elsewhere is discussed during the hiring process. Published US bands are split into three geographic tiers per role, with the San Francisco Bay Area tier highest.
Twilio names a one-time remote work stipend and temporary work location support among its remote-supporting benefits, plus company-wide breaks. Twilio does not publish the scope or duration of the temporary work location support. Its postings carry the caveat that offerings vary by location, so the exact package depends on the country you are hired in.
Applications run through Twilio's Greenhouse job board, presented through an Eightfold-powered careers site that offers AI resume matching against a posting. Twilio discloses its use of the technology directly: We use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to help make our hiring process efficient. That said, every hiring decision is made by real Twilions. Postings also state an intended application deadline, which Twilio notes may change based on business needs.
Twilio publishes an anti-recruitment-fraud notice stating that it and its recruiters only direct candidates to apply through the official Careers at Twilio page. Per that notice, Twilio will never refer you to external websites, ask for payment or personal information, or conduct interviews via messaging apps like WhatsApp.
