Berlin
Full-time
Permanent employee

Your Mission

About the Role

We're looking for a QA Manager to join our Product team and help raise the quality bar across everything we ship. You'll work closely with developers, product managers, and other stakeholders to define and uphold quality standards, from feature design through to release.

What You'll Do

  • Design, write, and maintain automated test suites to support continuous delivery.

  • Perform exploratory and manual testing, catching issues before they reach users.

  • Collaborate with engineers during development to embed quality early - reviewing requirements, flagging edge cases, and contributing to acceptance criteria.

  • Triage and investigate bugs, providing clear reproduction steps and prioritisation input.

  • Support the release process by ensuring test coverage is in place and sign-off criteria are met.

  • Identify gaps in test coverage and propose improvements to testing strategy.

  • Champion quality practices across the team through retrospectives and process discussions

Your Talent

  • Minimum 4 years of experience in a QA or software testing role.

  • Hands-on experience with test automation frameworks (e.g. Cypress, Playwright, Selenium, pytest or similar).

  • Solid understanding of testing principles: unit, integration, end-to-end, and exploratory testing.

  • Experience working in an agile product team alongside engineers and product managers.

  • Strong analytical thinking and attention to detail.

  • Clear communication skills - you can articulate a bug, a risk, or a quality concern concisely.

  • A collaborative approach; you see quality as a shared team responsibility.

We take our mission seriously, but we don't take ourselves too seriously.
Offsites, team nights, and our "Bees & Beers" are just as much a part of the job as the work itself.

About us

Sound like the perfect job for you? 
We look forward to your application and to getting to know you! 

At Bees & Bears, we place a high value on equal opportunity and are committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment. We strive to create a friendly, safe, and welcoming environment for all our employees, regardless of ethnic origin, gender, gender identity and expression, sexual orientation, disability and abilities of any kind, physical appearance, social background, marital status, age, or religion (or lack thereof).

Even if you don’t meet the requirements 100%, we still encourage you to apply.

You don’t want an ordinary job. You want to build something that truly matters. Be part of shaping it from day one, move fast and feel your impact. In a startup that doesn’t ask if something is possible – but how fast. Then you’ve come to the right place! 

At Bees & Bears, we’re a Climate FinTech on a mission to unlock capital for the energy transition. We believe finance is the key to accelerating the shift toward a sustainable future. The challenge ahead is massive: by 2050, the world needs to invest €150 trillion (!) to reach climate neutrality. 65% of this investment will need to be financed through loans.

Our mission is to channel capital into the sustainable economy — to accelerate the transition and make the world greener.

What we do:

We work closely with installers of climate hardware such as solar systems, energy storage, and heat pumps — enabling their customers to finance installations easily through monthly installments. Our platform provides the technical and financial foundation to make this happen. In doing so, we’re actively accelerating the energy transition — for households, for our partners, and for the planet.

We’ve recently secured €500 million in funding commitments to green 25,000 households over the next two years. Prior to that, we raised two funding rounds backed by several renowned VCs — and we’ve been growing rapidly ever since.
