I haven't gotten to that stage yet. But I think it's difficult to hire good devs for all stacks, be it Python, Ruby, JS. Clojure community is super friendly and full of very talented developers and I'd love to pay someone to write Clojure :). Yes, remote work for sure is an edge when hiring! Also reminds me of the essay "The Python Paradox" by Paul Graham (http://www.paulgraham.com/pypar.html http://www.paulgraham.com/pypar.html)

2 years ago I was hired into a Clojure based start-up with no experience in Clojure. It is easy to learn, and I love it now. One of my duties is hiring, and we don't look for developers with Clojure experience. Instead we look for developers with good skills in any language, and trust they'll be able to figure out Clojure. In a way, it has actually widened our hiring pool since we can't be shackled to the XXX years of experience in YYY approach.

  Still hiring? :)

    We're paused right now since we're prepping for a funding round. However, have you checked out the Clojurians slack? They have a #jobs channel which is pretty good.
