I work ~85% remote for a Bay Area startup, and I'm sure every company is different, but I would say roughly 9-5 with a strong expectation that if something happens over the weekend or I need to be on a call with a customer in India late at night that I will be there. So call that that 9-5 with 24/7 on-call, 7 days per week.

Being on-call, with rounds switching among peers every week is an option.
