I've mentioned before that I work for Economic Modeling Specialists, Intl. and that we've been using D since 2008.  We just put up a job posting for an experienced developer, preferably someone who already knows D, as that's what they'll be using.
The hire for this position will be working primarily with me, so I can answer any specific questions for the curious.

Check out the listing here: https://emsi.bamboohr.com/jobs/view.php?id=8

Does it offer remote (work from home)?

Meeting together regularly and physically is part of our company culture, so no, you'd have to move here.

Besides, you'd miss out on the kegerators, the catered company-wide Friday meeting, and the bocce ball court on the roof.

I'm just curious, have you introduced D for them or it was otherwise?

Matheus.

"Moscow, Idaho"

Err... Is that in Russia or in the USA? :D

I'm sure they never get tired of that joke.

My coworker, Jonathan, started using it around the time I was hired (2008), so I guess I was the second person.  There's another tech company in town that we've done barbecues with and it's fun to start talking and realize the other guy uses D as well.  Feels like we need a special handshake.

We pronounce our Moscow as "Moss-coe" as opposed to the Russian "Moss-cow".  I do sometimes compare the weather forecasts to see which Moscow is colder--Russia is winning right now.

In British English, the Russian Moscow is pronounced Moss-coe. The Russians themselves call it Москва, pronounced Moskva.
