I interviewed with them prior to the SAP acquisition back in 2017.

"We're looking for someone with experience with ASP and database performance improvements."

"You mean, ASP.net - not old school VB6 derived, interpreted - 'pretty cool for 1997' Active Server Pages - ASP?"

"Hey hey! You're the guy we want!"

Of course I would have taken the job if I'd known they'd be acquired.

edit: Huh, they were acquired in 2014? Ah well - it's like someone's MVP that made it out to production, then they made it big and that MVP kept being glommed onto.
