You have to convert all the cron job times (12 am) in the user's time zones, to the equivalent times on your server, by adding or subtracting hours to compensate for the time difference. With the server time zone equivalent of the cron job times, you can schedule all the cron jobs.

In @Scheduled notation you can pass Zone but only single time zone so you need to manage it with custom logic.

I believe your user record has included with time zone so to order to achieve it, You will need to set the cron job to run every half an hour(cover all time zones to include + 1/2 an hour), Get all timezones which has midnight then get users in those time zones to run logic for them..
