"Putting all this nice stuff into practice" is the kicker. I'd really like to do FP work, but I'm not willing to leave my current employer to do it. I think there's basically a skunk works deal of Haskell at Facebook, and F# for n programmers where n is basically unknown externally... and that's it. Am I missing someone that's a) in Silicon Valley b) mature enough that the benefits are there (such as always being paid on time, good health insurance etc etc)

Verizon Labs is scala, and (mostly) on the extreme functional side (heavy Scalaz). Scala/FP experience not required, but a willingness to learn is. Ping me if you want to chat more.

Is remote a possibility?

It isn't just a skunk works, they have a production system written in Haskell:

In SV (or there abouts) I know of:

Their anti-spam group definitely uses it
