According to the EEOC:

"Is the charging party a U. S. citizen? If not, (s)he is not protected by Title VII or the ADA, which exclude aliens working outside the United States"

So the lack of US citizenship specifically does play a big role here. However, I pointed out elsewhere there are in some cases other laws, especially state-specific ones, which might apply, possibly :)

Are they working outside the United States?

Everyone is working everywhere around the globe in the company I used to work for. 100 people.

But the question is are you in the US or not? If you are in the US, the ADA may apply, if not, as a non-US citizen, it does not apply to you. There may be other laws that do apply, probably based on the contract or state the company is based in.

Company US. Me Europe.

You are right, re-reading the OPs post, it is not clear where they are located just that they work remotely. I a inferred more from that than was said.
