Job description

  • Partner closely with developers, game designers, and producers to define quality standards for upcoming features, acting as a proactive quality consultant rather than a passive gatekeeper.
  • Take full end-to-end ownership of a feature's lifecycle, managing everything from the initial bug report through final sign-off and providing clear, actionable insights to support product decisions.
  • Plan, create, and execute comprehensive test plans that cover not only happy paths, but also edge cases, technical dependencies, and potential player misuse scenarios.
  • Evaluate bugs critically based on business priorities and player impact, determining which issues must be addressed before release and which can be deferred to the backlog.
  • Actively support the game's release pipeline and monitor post-release stability using tools such as Crashlytics to identify, reproduce, and report live issues.
  • Continuously seek opportunities to optimize QA pipelines and workflows, helping refine processes and advocating for QA best practices across the IBT team., We provide a monthly fitness bonus. Enjoy your time outside the office by picking the activity that suits you, from Urban Sports Club, to covering your gym membership

  • Solid experience working in Scrum/Agile environments and with project management tools such as Jira; familiarity with XRAY or similar test management tools is a strong plus.
  • A thorough understanding of testing methodologies (functional, non-functional, sanity, regression, and exploratory), along with the judgment to apply them effectively in the right contexts.

Desirable Skills

  • Experience working with Unity.
  • Previous work on mobile titles, with an understanding of mobile-specific challenges.
  • Familiarity with third-party SDKs and experience reading and analyzing logs (e.g., Firebase, Crashlytics).
