What you will do:

• Own and evolve the project QA strategy: quality gates, Definition of Ready/Done, release sign-off criteria.


• Lead manual testing for Unity client features: functional, regression, smoke, exploratory, and acceptance testing.


• Build sprint/release test plans, define risk-based priorities, and ensure coverage of critical user flows.


• Maintain QA artifacts and traceability: test cases, checklists, test scenarios, and requirements-to-tests mapping.


• Coordinate QA team execution: task distribution, progress tracking, quality reviews, and mentoring.


• Drive defect management lifecycle: triage, prioritization, root cause analysis, fix validation, and prevention actions.


• Partner closely with Engineering, Product, Design, and Analytics to identify quality risks early.


• Define automation scope and priorities, and guide implementation of client-side automation for Unity.


• Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines and ensure reliable quality signals before release.


• Track and improve QA KPIs: defect leakage, reopen rate, flaky tests, pass rate, and feedback cycle time.

What we are looking for:

• 4+ years of experience in QA, including experience in a QA Lead (or senior-level ownership) role.


• Strong hands-on experience in manual testing of client applications (Unity/mobile game experience is a strong plus).


• Experience in automation testing (C# or another OOP language), including reviewing and guiding automation efforts.


• Experience with CI/CD practices (TeamCity/Jenkins/GitHub Actions) and test pipeline integration.


• Proven experience building test strategy and QA processes across sprint and release cycles.


• Experience with release quality ownership: regression scope definition, go/no-go recommendations, post-release validation.


• Solid test design skills: equivalence partitioning, boundary values, state transitions, and risk-based testing.


• Practical experience with bug tracking and test management tools, as well as clear stakeholder reporting.


• Strong communication and leadership skills, with the ability to align cross-functional teams on quality goals.

Nice to have:

• Hands-on Unity automation experience for UI and gameplay flows (scene transitions, animations, addressables).


• Experience testing live-ops content and frequent content releases.


• Understanding of client-server contracts and end-to-end integration validation.


• Experience with Unity client performance/profiling test practices.
