Worked on one of the largest Ruby on Rails deployments of all time at Groupon. I've seen the good, the bad, and the ugly, and I can help you battle a monolithic architecture before it becomes an issue.

One of my top languages. Used daily for several years.

I've used Clojure/ClojureScript to develop data systems, games, and websites.

The language of the web, for better or worse. I used JavaScript at some of my earliest jobs and still do today-- of course, it's a bit more sane today with the frameworks that we have.

Starting to show its age, but still packs a punch! The JVM is ultra powerful. Just don't fall into the copypasta java-jockey camp. There are better ways these days to leverage the power of the VM without longform Java code.

Have built many web sites, web services, standalone apps and games (with Unity3D) with this language. It's a good one!

C/C++ was one of the earliest languages I learned, and I'm pleased that it remains relevant after all these years. When you absolutely positively need to squeeze every last bit of performance out of your code, here's where you turn. Especially useful in my work in computer vision. One of the earliest codebases I developed (in C++) was a multi-player poker game at https://code.google.com/p/pokerspot/
