Job Description

We are looking for a Senior Engineer in the space of QA automation frameworks for games who can lead and contribute to our products for automated game testing. As part of this job, you will implement backend systems, frontend systems, and game engine tools related to automated testing in games. You will use your existing experience in game QA automation to build a product that can help developers across a wide range of genres, mainly within the Unity game engine. You have a deep understanding of the QA process, including how bugs are found, reported, and addressed. Using this knowledge, your goal is to help steer our product and implement features that feel magical to the developers on our platform.

For this role, we are looking for someone with that true startup mentality - jumping into problems without hesitation, implementing experimental products, and diving deep with customers to understand their needs. The ideal candidate isn’t afraid to implement crazy ideas, build and throw away entire systems, and collaborate with the team to find the best way forward with an idea.
