Hiring in Japan is as much a scheduling question as a sourcing one. At UTC+9, that means a short morning or evening overlap with Western Europe and little natural overlap with the US West Coast. That decides whether you are hiring someone who joins your stand-up or someone who hands off to it.
Developers in Japan cluster in Tokyo, USA, Osaka and Kyoto. City counts cover every indexed developer there, not only the ones using Heroku, so treat them as where the country's engineering population sits rather than a count for this skill.
Heroku developers in Japan most often pair it with JavaScript (87.5%), TypeScript (87.5%) and HTML (75%).
