Isometric is a carbon removal registry. We issue the world’s most scientifically rigorous carbon credits to help Fortune 100 companies tackle climate change and prevent greenwashing.
We're growing quickly, but we’re intentional about hiring people who contribute to our unique culture. Our team is smart, meticulous and courageous—but warm, kind and supportive too.
We’re led by Eamon Jubbawy, an experienced CEO who previously co-founded Onfido, the world’s leading AI-powered identity verification platform. He scaled the company to $100m+ in revenue—verifying over half a billion identities and catching 23 million fraudsters—before selling the company for $650m. Eamon started Isometric in 2022 to bring the same level of rigorous fraud prevention, confidence and trust to the carbon removal industry.
The wider Isometric team includes scientists from Oxford, Cambridge, Harvard, MIT, Yale and Stanford—and technologists from companies like Amazon, Shopify, Meta, Google, Wise and Palantir.
We’re backed by world-class investors with real-world experience in climate change and company building: Lowercarbon Capital and Plural.

You’re looking for a fully remote role at the moment. In the early stages of building our product we’re optimising for being physically together 3 days a week.
You enjoy structure and only staying within your area of expertise. We’re a small team early on the journey and things change quickly as we learn more.
You prefer a slower pace. While the problem we’re facing has a long time horizon, it’s also critical that we make meaningful progress on it today, not next quarter or year.
