Hey Andrew,
There are a bunch of companies in Seattle that are hiring Python folks to do
actual software development and build products rather than test scripting at {{

EnergySavvy (I'm the CTO there), BigDoor, Yapta and RootMetric just to name a
couple off the top of my head.

However, I will admit that we could've been more creative with the naming.

Northwest Python Days an oceanographer had a slide showing a SeaPIG.
