Earlier quoted context omitted.

70k in London is like 70k in SF. Pretty incredible if you ask me. Must be a cost center.

That's still pretty high for a London wage though. While living costs are the same, salaries are about half across the board in London. Just moved back from there.

I suspect that the finance industry doesn't have that problem in London. Someone's buying up all the 2mil quid houses (other than oil wealthy investors).

QLEAR | Software Developers | Shanghai, China | FULL-TIME, INTERNS, VISA http://qlear.build

QLEAR is an environmental tech company that develops a IoT platform for indoor environmental quality monitors, mostly focused on air quality. We pull in real-time data, store and analyze it, and provide various ways to communicate that data to different audiences. We've got a few thousand sensors hooked up already, and we need to start expanding our team as we move beyond air quality into other environmental indicators, as well as IoT automation, environmental certifications, etc.

We are looking for the following:

Backend Engineer (Ruby)

Frontend Engineer (React)

Mobile Development Engineer (react-native)

QA Engineer

Technical Operations Engineer

Product Designer

Internships for QA or Frontend (onsite only)

Hey guys! We're in the middle of shipping a few products and modernizing large codebases, so we are looking for:

- A Java backend programmer (devops background appreciated),

- An experienced iOS developer,

- A lead Android developer.

We use CI, can deploy code fast, work from a cool shared office in central Tokyo, and can provide competitive salaries. We're still a relatively small team, so there's a lot of room for impact!

Black Swan Data | iOS Engineer (Swift 3) | London (UK) or Budapest (Hungary) | Onsite | http://www.blackswan.com/blog/job/ios-developer/

Hi! I am James Mitchell. The Head of Mobile Development at Black Swan London.

We are looking for iOS developers to work in our London or Budapest office (no remote).

Variety is the spice of life at Black Swan – one day you can be working on a startup project and the next on a project with over 1.1 million active monthly users (that is 99.9% crash free – not that we like to boast!). But if that’s not how you work, we are happy for you to take ownership of a project too! We work in an agency but it’s not all working at top speed, we also work smart! We use GIT flow, we love Jenkins and our code has high unit test coverage. Nothing is getting into a build without a pull request! Yes, we are geeks and we like a chat about coding, but we also enjoy the gym, video games, movies, tv series / boxsets and a beer on a Friday night…

NeuroCite | Co-Founder (Tech) | Santa Monica, CA | REMOTE (Los Angeles Preferred)

Seeking a motivated Co-Founder from a technology background for an early-stage health informatics startup. NeuroCite works in biomedical research data publishing, aggregation, and sharing. Knowledge and proficiency in database engineering, big data platforms, and cloud architecture is a must. We would like to find someone who understands the basics of HCUP, Marketscan, Epic, Cerner, and HIPAA and ideally has a general understanding of the medical research culture and process. Experience in health informatics (in addition to being an engineer) definitely gets our attention but is not a requirement.

Please email CV and cover letter to info@neurocite.com.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Just saying 40-70k is pretty low. Is that all the BBC has to spend on it's hiring budget?

To be fair Facebook come in at 70k in London.

I've heard that Google pay less in London than they do in any of their US offices.
