+# Aha!
+
+## Company blurb
+
+Home
+Aha! is the world's #1 product roadmap software. Creating great software is invigorating. And product managers should be the happiest people on earth. But most companies never benefit from their product manager’s love of innovation because they are beaten down by soft strategies, weak tools, and squishy communication. We help make agile product managers great by enabling them to set winning product strategies and prioritize the key features that customers want. 
+
+Aha! is led by product development experts Brian de Haaff and Dr. Chris Waters and headquartered in Menlo Park, California. Visit www.aha.io for more information and follow us @aha_io

+# Art & Logic
+
+## Company blurb
+
+We have built software for over 900 clients from a diverse set of industries including education, aerospace, music technology, consumer electronics, entertainment, financial services, and many more. Coding the "impossible."™
+
+## Company size
+
+Over 50 
+
+## Remote status
+
+Art & Logic developers all work remotely from across the US and Canada. Most of us work from our home offices, but some of us prefer to rent office space or work at a coworking facility. We do our best to accommodate the unique schedule and work-style requirements of our people, but because our work is highly collaborative within project teams, it’s important that everyone have a reasonable amount of overlap with traditional middle-of-the-day business hours. This means that we’re not a suitable option for anyone looking to pick up a handful of night & weekend moonlighting hours. We’re only considering developers who are able to regularly work 30 or more billable hours per week.
+
+Being a distributed company is built into Art & Logic’s DNA — since being founded in 1991, we’ve acquired, built, and stumbled across tools and practices that let us work efficiently and productively, even though no two of us are in the same location.
+For most of our collaboration, we rely on the suite of tools provided as part of Google Apps for Business — we use Docs for shared documents, Groups for project-specific communications (both within the team and between Art & Logic and clients), and Hangouts/GChat for real-time voice/video communication.
+
+From reading the trade magazines, you’d think that there wasn’t any development talent once you got 50 miles outside of the Bay Area, except for a few small pockets of talent in New York City and Boston. That’s a pretty dumb idea. We also disagree with the idea that work is mostly a place you go — it’s a thing you do, and given the right environment, support, and culture, you should be able to do great work from wherever you work best. For most of us at Art & Logic, that workspace is at home, where we can maintain control of noise, distractions, and other factors that can make it difficult to remain productive throughout the work day.
+
+We like to say that we don’t telecommute, because there’s no place for us to telecommute to. If you’ve had bad experiences working remotely in the past because you’ve been left out of what was happening in ‘the office’ — we’re different. The tools, infrastructure, and work practices that we’ve adopted over the years let us work together effectively, efficiently, and very collaboratively without regard to the physical distances between any two of us.
+
+## Region
+
+US and Canada
+
+## Company technologies
+
+We work with an extensive range of languages and technologies. 
+
+* C++
+* Python
+* Objective C
+* PHP

+* Ruby
+* Java
+* C#
+* Git
+
+## Office Locations
+
+Headquarters in Pasadena, CA and offices throughout the US. 
+
+## How to apply
+
+We’re always looking for great developers, whether we have an immediate place for them or not. Our recruiting process runs continuously in the background, identifying people we’d like to work with as soon as an appropriate opportunity surfaces. When the rate of new projects starting exceeds the rate of existing projects being completed, we reach out to that group of already vetted developers, looking for the best match of skills, availability, and likelihood of long-term success at Art & Logic.

+# Evil martians
+
+## Company blurb
+
+Evil Martians (https://evilmartians.com) is a lean web development shop with headquarters in Moscow, Russia and remote employees located all over the world. Using agile processes and our expertise in Ruby on Rails, Erlang, Scala, Go and DevOps techniques, we help startups pivot and online businesses grow.
+
+We cover all technical areas of the project: from general technical management and planning to development, release management, technical platform and development operations, as well as interface design and implementation. We deal with all technical-related questions and tasks, while our customer acts as a product manager/owner, setting priorities and strategizing. We start with writing the specification and choosing a platform for the project (cloud, dedicated, hybrid), plan the iterations, deliver software in weekly or biweekly iterations and continue with the development. When our client’s project is running smoothly and the technical platform is stable, we help employ new talent, including hiring juniors and training them. Operations and maintenance — maintaining project uptime, growing the platform — are also on us.
+
+We're mostly a Ruby on Rails shop — we’ve been doing Rails applications since the early days, most back-end (and some front-end) developers have contributions to Rails itself or key Ruby libraries; almost all of us have at least some open-source projects.
+
+Our key clients include Groupon Russia (all web and back-office development since day one through to Groupon’s global IPO, to the present day), eBay (lean development of an official Russian eBay social media marketing site), RocketBank (backend for a Russian mobile-only banking service), ZeptoLab (internal analytics service for a world-known mobile games developer), News360 (web version of personalized news reader), Ren TV (one of Russian leading TV networks), OnlineTours.ru (leading Russian travel site) and ROSA Lab (Russian Mandriva Linux R&D center).

+* [Josh Padnick](https://joshpadnick.com/): Co-founder of Gruntwork. He is the author of a 12,000+ word [guide to building scalable web apps on AWS](https://www.airpair.com/aws/posts/building-a-scalable-web-app-on-amazon-web-services-p1) which garnered 500+ upvotes on Hacker News, has presented on AWS and DevOps at numerous conferences and meetups, and built apps on AWS for 100,000+ users.

+
+## Remote status
+
+We are a fully distributed company. Everyone works remotely, though we make an effort to meet up in person several times per year. 
+
+## Region
