For any Elixir devs out there - my new job is hiring Full Stack Elixir people. LiveView and Tailwind experience a bonus but not required.

- 4.5 day week
- fully remote
- distributed team but some overlap with EU timezones is desirable
- good money
- expenses for co-working, training, books, etc
- twice a year in person meetups

Is this you? Let's talk. And if not, a retoot would be appreciated.

@tommyp Hi there, I've been developing in Erlang for more than a decade. I'm not interested in a move but am just wondering if that would make me eligible for an Elixir development job.

@seanddotmedotuk It'd depend on your ability to pick it up. I haven't written any Erlang, but I understand that syntax-wise it's quite different. I'd say familiarising yourself with Elixir and Phoenix might be enough but ultimately it has to be enough to pass the interview process and first few months.

@tommyp My understanding is that the underlying principles of the language/VM are the same, but the Elixir syntax is more user-friendly and that an advanced Elixir developer needs to know Erlang for debugging purposes.

Just wondered if that would count for anything. Obviously if I found myself in that position, I'd do some cramming, but hopefully that's a long way away! :)

@tommyp This is actually the definition of me. :D I would be quite interested in getting a good homework assignment to prove my worth. :)

@JonGretar The interview process code section is either talk through some public code or a small homework assignment. I did the homework and it was actually achievable within the timeframe that they said. And they paid me for my time!
