I have solved it myself. It appears the function was not firing early enough.

Here is the modified code

/**
 * Hide ACF menu item from the admin menu
 */
 
function remove_acf_menu()
{
 
    // provide a list of usernames who can edit custom field definitions here
    $admins = array( 
        'chad',
    );
 
    // get the current user
    $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
 
    // match and remove if needed
    if( !in_array( $current_user->user_login, $admins ) )
    {
        remove_menu_page('edit.php?post_type=acf');
    }
 
}
 
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'remove_acf_menu', 999 );

Simply adding 999 to the action fixed it. If someone knows a more “proper” way to do it I’m all ears!
