  • Proactively identify potential risks in the development process and implement preventative measures to ensure quality.
  • Develop and execute effective test coverage for gameplay mechanics, technical features, and backend systems across mobile platforms.
  • Take full ownership of the build pipeline, including managing the creation and distribution of builds via Apple TestFlight for both internal stakeholders and external playtest.
  • Diagnose issues, document detailed defect reports, and propose regression testing to ensure issues are resolved and do not reoccur.
  • Work directly with engineers to validate technical implementations, providing critical feedback to support optimal performance and user experience.
  • Diagnose and document mobile performance issues using the Unity Profiler, providing actionable insights to the development team.
  • Maintain and improve upon internal QA processes and documentation, including detailed project-specific test plans and procedures.
  • Oversee external QA vendor coordination, ensuring alignment with internal standards and goals.
  • Lead by example, mentoring QA testers and fostering a culture of collaboration and quality-driven development.
  • Regularly review and triage issues with the Senior QA Manager, prioritizing fixes and enhancements based on development goals.
  • Create detailed build verification reports and technical feature validation reports to communicate project health and progress effectively.

 

Requirements:

  • Proven experience in QA for game development, with a strong focus on mobile platforms.
  • Successfully shipped at least one title, ideally on mobile.
  • Deep understanding of QA processes for backend systems and services, including technical implementations.
  • Demonstrated experience leading QA teams and driving quality initiatives.
  • Familiarity with advanced testing techniques for gameplay, performance, and compatibility.
  • Hands-on experience with QA tools such as TestRail and JIRA.
  • Strong ability to analyze and communicate technical details effectively with cross-functional teams.
  • Experience coordinating with external QA vendors and ensuring their contributions align with project needs.


Preferred Qualifications:

  • Passion for mobile games and a deep understanding of what makes gaming experiences engaging and fun.
  • Prior experience in development QA, working alongside engineers and designers to embed quality assurance directly into the development process.
  • Familiarity with agile development practices and iterative design processes.
  • Knowledge of automated testing tools and scripting is a plus.
  • ISTQB Foundation Level Certification or equivalent QA certification, or relevant trade education, technical writing/communications experience, or an associate degree or higher in a related field.

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
