Working a us job from overseas

So I’m a us citizen but I live in Asia. My wife is local so I have open work rights in this country as well as in America since I’m American.

I’ve been trying to move into a new career path for a while (currently I teach at a private high school). I’m finishing up a PhD in social psychology and have experience doing research (I’ve also taught high school level research methods and social science courses).

My issue is that it seems like my resumes just get binned instantly. I think it’s my location that gets me flagged. Before I decided to marry my wife I was able to get interviews for UX researcher (back when I was still living state side) but now it seems impossible.

I’m wondering if anyone had any advice on how to land a remote contract or permanent position while not living in the United States? How have other people been able to move passed this (to be clear the job doesn’t need to be in UX just anything that matches my research skill set.)

Thanks in advance!
