Yeah I only found out today that Xero was a .NET shop, actually that was a bit disappointing. Same for TradeMe. So was hoping there was a startup scene using something more interesting, Python or even Go perhaps.
I actually don't mind Java at all, perhaps Java skills are better to focus on then in terms of it being more useful in moving to New Zealand :)
- navs 8y agoVend [1] and Movio [2] are two companies I know of that use Go. I know people in both companies and they've got a friendly culture. I believe Centrality (blockchain company) and Soul Machines use Python. You'll see a lot more NodeJS in the startups. Someone from Xero might be able to correct me here, but I've heard from friends at Xero that they're exploring Rust atm.
