A new cloud provider is conducting one-on-one and small group interviews
with Ruby developers who have significant experience building and
deploying
Ruby apps. Were interested in learning what you think about EngineYard,
AWS and Heroku. We figure the more we know, the better suited we’ll be
to
develop a product that best serves the ROR community.

compensate
you for your time. Over the phone interviews will pay $125, and
