Tray.io | Solutions Engineer | London - ONSITE | Full Time
We are an ambitious and well funded startup looking for top engineering talent to make connecting software services a breeze. Many software services we use every day are distinctly separate and difficult to use together - we intend to fix that.
Your role as a Solutions Engineer will involve extending the tray.io integration platform through the implementation of 3rd party “connectors”. Connectors are wrappers around REST APIs which allow data to be sent in and out of the tray.io platform. Your role will involve quickly understanding how any given SaaS tool works and how to use its API.
You will:
- Design, implement, test, and maintain connectors
- Work with 3rd parties and customers to establish your developer access to their APIs
- Contribute to the design and development of our internal tools for building connectors
Requirements:
- Experience with REST APIs
- Knowledge of a number of different SaaS tools
- Experience writing Javascript (ideally Node.js)
- Excellent communication skills
- Ability to think outside the box
- The desire to learn, improve and work within a close knit team
http://zonino.co.uk - We had a stab at building our own that mined jobs directly from the websites of (London) startups. It's mothballed so the data is all out of date but I still think the UI is a good example of how job searching should be really simple and uncluttered.

Nominet is most famous for being the .uk internet registry. We are a public benefit company and through the Nominet Trust we provide funding and support to people who are using technology as a force for social good.
We also do applied research and build new products focussed around the internet infrastructure of the future.
Nominet's R&D team are looking for engineers to help develop products in the IoT and radio communications spaces. For example we're currently driving adoption of TV Whitespace (http://www.nominet.uk/researchblog/getting-started-tv-white-...) and using it for conservation projects and to provide broadband in rural areas in both the UK and Africa. These are R&D roles - you need to be happy working with uncertainty!

This is really good! Love the clean style. We tried to do something similar a while ago with http://www.zonino.co.uk although we scraped the jobs from startups sites which works quite nicely. Haven't updated for a ages though. You could consider doing something similar. I echo the comments about location filters! Please make that a priority!
I would argue that in London it's the fact that talking about salaries is considered rather taboo in tech that perpetuates non-disclosure. I wrote a post about it a while ago: http://blog.zonino.co.uk/on-salaries-in-london-startups/
It's still common practice in the US not to discuss salaries. Which is total BS because transparency on salary can only benefit the workers; the "taboo" nature of the discussion is perpetuated by big companies who try to discourage collective bargaining (btw, forbidding employees from discussing salaries with their co-workers is illegal in the US - despite what your employment contract may say).
I couldn't agree more. If we want more transparency from employers we (as engineers) should start with being transparent with each other. I had no idea that legislation existed in the US - that's really interesting!
