Yikes at these answers so far. Here's my list as a computer science geek always attempting to look top down at the industry: - Cloudflare - Datadog - GitLab - DistroKid - Spotify - TransferWise - Typeform - Okta (maybe) This being my short list off the top of my head. Hopefully I can edit with some more later. --- Also, a note that I'm currently hiring: I lead an international role for AB InBev called Z-Tech which is modernizing the last-mile supply chain for all of AB InBev's massive network of subsidiary suppliers. That said, I'm attempting to model our engineering practices based on some learnings from the above list of companies. Feel free to reach out at: christian.battaglia at ab-inbev dot com

Christian, I took a quick look at the Careers page for ab-inbev, and the vast majority of listed positions in the U.S. are internships and blue-collar jobs. I was impressed, however, to see that your corporate website cookie settings default to maximum privacy!

  You are correct, good DrScump. I pointed that out to the team immediately. I started Monday and this being a static site without user interaction we deemed it a non-business critical item and it's in the backlog for the next couple weeks . For those unaware, we're talking about the lack of an SSL cert on our new company website. Edit: Or did I completely misjudge that as sarcasm?

Curious why Spotify is on this list. As a user, I've found their clients to be buggy.

  From a UX perspective, they do a little too much "experimentation" which equates to buggy clients but the actual tech is insanely complicated but universally controlled. They have a C++ layer for each client that binds into Android/iOS/macOS/Windows, etc. And as for audio and their upcoming video hand in hand with Joe Rogan podcast being an exlusive now, the way they operate in guilds/pods is one of the first examples of this democratized workflow.
