The team is achieving this by backing innovative, high-quality carbon projects alongside leveraging a product-led approach to scalable solutions.

About the role
As a Software Engineer, you’ll be a trusted, high-impact individual contributor - delivering high-quality software, shaping product direction, and helping others level up. You’ll work across the stack, ship meaningful features, and contribute to how we build things at Abatable.
Key Responsibilities:
- Take ownership of projects from concept to deployment - delivering robust, maintainable solutions that solve real user problems.
- Collaborate closely with Product, Design, and Data to shape what we build and why.
- Write clean, thoughtful code - with a strong grasp of architecture, performance, and coding best practices.
- Contribute to improving engineering processes and codebase health.
- Provide guidance and feedback to peers, helping raise the bar for the whole team.
- Balance speed and quality - making pragmatic trade-offs and learning from each release.
- Stay curious - exploring new tools, frameworks, and approaches to improve how we work.
We’re happy to work with people with experience in any of the tools and technologies in our stack, but you should be proficient working in a full-stack TypeScript environment.
Who We're Looking For
Product-minded engineer: You think beyond tickets - understanding the user, the problem, and the “why” behind what you’re building.
Full-stack experience: You’ve built and shipped production systems across the stack (React, TypeScript, APIs, databases).
Ownership mindset: You’re proactive, accountable, and take pride in seeing things through to impact.
Strong problem solver: You debug methodically, think in systems, and design solutions that last.
Collaborative communicator: You work well across disciplines, explain complex ideas clearly, and give and receive feedback with humility.
Continuous learner: You enjoy exploring new tech, reflecting on mistakes, and helping others grow.
5+ years experience building production software with measurable user or business impact.
This Role Isn't Right If You:
- Prefer fully remote work - We believe in the power of in-person collaboration. You'll be in our London office at least twice weekly.
- Want to stay in your lane - We're a small, fast-moving team where everyone's a generalist. You'll work across the full stack, dive into new domains, and thrive in ambiguous, rapidly evolving situations where we're building and learning simultaneously.
- Prefer slow, heavily process-driven environments - We move fast and prioritise shipping value to users quickly. You'll need to be comfortable making decisions with incomplete information, iterating based on user feedback, and balancing speed with quality in a dynamic startup environment.
What We Offer

- Health & wellbeing: Health and Dental insurance, including mental health cover to holistically support your wellbeing

- Time off: 25 days holiday (excl. bank holidays) + one extra day off for your birthday
