About the Team

The B Impact Platform team is one of three teams within Product & Platform Engineering, responsible for building and maintaining the core assessment and impact tools used by companies and partners globally, including the B Impact Assessment and B Lab's global website. A Tech Lead leads the team and works closely with the department's shared Architecture function — the Solution Architect and Software Architect — to ensure technical standards and platform coherence across Product & Platform Engineering. The B Impact Platform is central to B Lab's mission: it's the primary tool through which companies measure their social and environmental performance and pursue B Corp Certification. Given its scale and importance to the certification process, the team places a strong emphasis on quality, reliability, and accuracy across every release.

About the Opportunity

As Quality Assurance Engineer on the B Impact Platform team, you will help ensure the reliability, accuracy, and quality of the tools that companies worldwide rely on to measure their impact and pursue B Corp Certification. You will design and execute both manual and automated tests, with a strong focus on end-to-end automated testing using Playwright, working closely with engineers and the Tech Lead throughout the development lifecycle to catch issues early and maintain high release standards. This role is well suited to someone who takes pride in thorough, methodical testing and who wants their work to directly protect the integrity of a platform used across a global network of companies and partners.

• Maintain and troubleshoot the test automation framework, keeping it stable and easy for other engineers to contribute to

Manual Testing & Quality Assurance [30%]

• Design and execute manual test plans and test cases for new features, particularly in areas where automation isn't yet in place or where nuanced judgment is required
• Perform exploratory testing to identify edge cases and issues that scripted tests may miss
• Verify bug fixes and validate that resolved issues meet acceptance criteria before release

Planning & Collaboration [20%]

• Collaborate with engineers and the Tech Lead throughout the development lifecycle, reviewing user stories and acceptance criteria to identify testing needs early
• Participate in sprint planning, story grooming, and retrospectives, providing a quality-focused perspective
• Document test plans, test cases, and known issues clearly to support knowledge transfer and team-wide visibility into quality status

Process Improvement [10%]

• Identify gaps in current testing practices and recommend improvements to tools, coverage, or process
• Stay current with QA and test automation best practices, bringing new techniques and tools to the team as relevant
