Congrats on the new release! While this is all great news, it's still quite hard to get a full-time Elixir job outside of US. Kind of like staring at the candy shop display while it's closed. I'm wondering how to make this happen. I'm in a place where Elixir is just not going to happen and seems unreasonable to expect that I'll be able to convince people to switch to it right after joining a new place. Seems like the only option is to find spare time for playing with Elixir, but that proved to be difficult when I need to invested time in a different stack that actually helps me pay the bills.
- rehemiau 9y agoYou should keep checking out the forum[1] for remote work opportunities. And I don't think it's that hard, I just got a job in Europe in elixir ;) [1](https://elixirforum.com/c/elixir-jobs https://elixirforum.com/c/elixir-jobs)
- stefanchrobot 9y agoThe job offers are not that often, so I guess you've beat everybody, myself included, with production experience.
- di4na 9y agoI did get a job in the UK in elixir. So definitely exist.
- pmarreck 9y ago"I like this language so much that I am angry that there aren't jobs in it near me" Seems like a pretty good language endorsement to me lol EDIT: Here's a "curated list of companies using Elixir": https://github.com/doomspork/elixir-companies https://github.com/doomspork/elixir-companies
