Food & Drinks:

Thanks to ActiveProspect for sponsoring food and drinks this month.

ActiveProspect (https://activeprospect.com/) is a SaaS company - boot-strapped and profitable, located in Austin. We are looking for Elixir developers (https://activeprospect.com/careers/) to help lead the development of our TrustedForm product. This is a rapidly growing product (50%+ annual revenue growth) that is operating on a massive scale. It is deployed on thousands of websites, handles over 15k user events per second, and stores over 500TB of data.TrustedForm is used to help marketers comply with the various regulations (TCPA) for contacting consumers, by documenting proof of consumer consent. No one likes unsolicited marketing calls or texts - this product helps solve that problem.

Location:

Go to Capital Factory's 1st floor front desk (the big room with the robot head across from the hotel bar) and ask for the Austin Elixir meetup room (usually Wall-E or Jonny-Five on the first floor) and they'll point you in the right direction. You might want to stop by the front desk to get to the parking validation ticket before the meetup too.

Parking:

Capital Factory has validated parking: when you go to the 1st or 16th floor ask the front desk for a parking voucher. The parking voucher will let you park for 50% off from 5pm-10pm (so ~$15 instead of ~$30) in the Omni Hotel garage under Capital Factory. To get into the garage turn north on Brazos from 7th Street. The garage entrance is the first downward ramp on the right at 733 Brazos (Street view https://www.google.com/maps/@30.2689199,-97.740976,3a,75y,88.67h,84.37t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1s6eYOcptw_oovfL-UUMEM1Q!2e0!7i13312!8i6656!6m1!1e1 ) .
