This weeks post features two jobs that are located in San Francisco and one that is 26 miles southeast in Redwood City. Todays job listings include Turn, Zencoder, and Twilio.
App.net, Dalton Caldwell’s proposed ad-free Twitter-alternative, has launched an experimental Developer Incentive Program to financially reward developers that create innovative and popular applications using the App.net API.
Our API directory now includes 255 SMS APIs. The newest is the Msg2send API. The most popular, in terms of mashups, is the Twilio SMS API. We list 171 Twilio SMS mashups. Below you’ll find some more stats from the directory, including the entire list of SMS APIs.
This past week 7 new mashups were added to our mashup directory and 13 different APIs were used to build them. Some of the newer or less frequently seen APIs include Amazon Product Advertising, App.net, Highrise, National Weather Service NDFD and WebKnox. The most often used APIs this week are Facebook, National Weather Service NDFD and Twitter. And the most commonly used types of APIs were Music (3 APIs, 3 mashups), Social (3 APIs, 4 mashups) and Weather (1 APIs, 1 mashups).
Top Developers will earn almost $20K per month on App.net. redBus builds critical system monitoring system using BigQuery. Plus: 100+ developers gathered to hack on Big Data at AngelHack, API Best Practices guide from SOA Software and 12 New APIs.
San Francisco continues its dominance of the API job market, but this week brings us a new location we haven’t seen before: New Zealand. As more and more API-related jobs become available, it’s likely that they’ll continue to show up all over the world.
This week we had 88 new APIs added to our API directory including a social network and social feed service, voice and text broadcasting solutions, credit card account validation service, menu management and venue location service and social media analytics. Additionally we covered Beeminder’s API keeping goal setters on track, and how the HeiaHeia API brings workout tracking into the corporate world. Below are more details on each of these new APIs.
Continuing on an appearance in our last jobs post for a job with the same title, this week we’ve got two ‘Full Stack Developer’ positions. These developers are expected to have experience with both the front- and back-end technologies required to power a web service API. If you fancy yourself a polyglot that likes working on a lot of different projects and technologies, this might be the job for you.
Our API directory now includes 53 feeds APIs. The newest is the App.net API. The most popular, in terms of mashups, is the Google Ajax Feeds API. We list 45 Google Ajax Feeds mashups. Below you’ll find some more stats from the directory, including the entire list of feeds APIs.
