Yes, Sitecore.
We quickly learned that the easiest way for me to remain in Ukraine would be employment. So, with this in mind we made several trips to a local internet cafe and began posting my cv to adverts for jobs requiring English. Personally I didn't really think anything would come of this as I had no skills in either of the languages here (they speak Ukrainian and Russian as natural languages). Within a month I had an interview in Dnepropetrovsk with Sitecore and here I am. The office here in Ukraine is a base for development and support and is staffed by a collection of talented and bright people who are a credit to both Sitecore and themselves. (see I can be nice :)...
They employed me as a Technical Writer and I soon became involved in the mass of documentation that Sitecore has written. I find myself doing two jobs here.
The first is the Technical Writer job. I create, edit, proof, and publish documentation for the various sitecore products along with my colleagues in the documentation department (Alexander Kokoshyn, Mark Sinclair and John West).
The second job I do here is helping to improve the level of English language amongst the staff. I am surprised at the excellent high level of English here and most of my job in this area involves making corrections to grammar and polishing english that is already at quite a good standard. I also regularly embarras myself with my very poor russian.
