We're a 3-year old Clojure startup called Runa, and we're disrupting the eCommerce space. We've only taken a series A, and we're revenue positive, and will be profitable in a few months.

We have some top Clojurians working for us, and are looking for people across the stack to focus on Big Data, Machine Learning, scalability, etc. Check us out at http://www.WorkAtRuna.com
