Many millions of visitors to travel guides and restaurant review apps/websites can soon book directly without needing to leave the website they discover the restaurant on.

I have seen multiple exits as a first-time startup employee and co-founder. I’m looking for a Founding Software Engineer who is “mid-level” in experience. At least 4 years professional experience shipping API’s are required. Ideally this will be someone who wants their career to grow with a startup (CTO or Head of Engineering progression).

Tech stack: Typescript Node on the backend and React on the frontend. Postgres Database. Heroku hosting for simplicity & shipping fast.

Funding: £1m seed (June 2024)

Compensation: Between £60-70k + equity inline with founding engineer/CTO

Apply via email: ollie@allthetables.com (No agencies please) Website: https://allthetables.com


I'd be interested in applying given that I've visited quite a few fine dining restaurants when I was in a particular phase of my life. However, I'm Dutch and living comfortably in London on £60-70k seems tough. It seems you're only looking for people who are already based in London?

I think opening up to remote might be helpful/the cheapest way to go about it.


Depends what you mean by "comfortable", but I'm pretty comfy on ~£70k in London. I rent a 2-bed flat in a gorgeous area close to the tube with my girlfriend (who earns around min wage), can save for a house deposit, have a few international holidays a year, don't worry about bills or food or anything. Granted, my hobbies are pretty cheap, but it's far from uncomfortable.


If you like crabs, there’s a crab museum in Margate (Kent, UK)

According to their flyer, it’s the #1 crab museum in Europe!


Previously, Algolia had a restriction of 10k rows on their free tier called "build". This has now been updated to 1 millions rows.

Depending on your project, I found their 10k row limit quite restrictive as my projects typically had significantly more rows which I wanted to index for search.

A jump from 10k to 1 million is substantial, so I have taken advantage of it this weekend. I hope others out there find this as useful as I have done!

Please note, this increase didn't apply to my existing Algolia accounts, so I had to create a new account to take advantage of this higher allowance.
