I work as a software engineer for Veterans United Home Loans, their headquarters is in Columbia, Missouri. One of my coworkers lives 20 minutes from work and has a stable and owns horses. It was rated one of the best places to work for this year by Fortune Magazine and honestly as a developer I feel pretty spoiled. I’ll be straight, salaries aren’t going to match what you’ll get working remotely for a job on the coast, but it’s more than enough to live the pastoral lifestyle you seem to be looking for. Also it’s a college town so there’s night life and fun to be had, they’re inclusive and while they don’t have things like IKEA Kansas City and St. Louis are two hours away if you really want to scratch that bourgeoisie itch. I work for them but don’t represent them, but saw your post and thought I’d make you aware of our growing team! I think there’s a few hundred engineers right now.
