Does being in Hawaii automatically disqualify me from 95% of tech jobs?

It does disqualify you from some. Even my company, that is entirely remote, doesn’t allow for Hawaiian ( and a few other states) residents for some tax reasons.

If you have close friends or family on the mainland, try using their address for remote work applications and see if that gets your foot in the door.

Yes, Hawaii imposes its tax laws on all companies.
