## Description

* Own features and test coverage end-to-end, from identifying QA flows and edge cases based on product requirements to release sign-off and post-release monitoring of the game.
 * Design, write, and review test plans and test maps; review submissions from other QA team members and define the QA strategy for complex features.
 * Perform technical QA analysis, when needed, including runtime profiling, memory analysis, CPU/GPU usage, and build size validation on iOS and Android.
 * Monitor and investigate regressions: frame rate drops, load time increases, APK/IPA size changes across builds.
 * Proactively coordinate team playtests and continuously monitor release performance, raising red flags early.
 * Drive continuous improvements to QA process and tooling, partnering with the QA manager on workload and priorities across internal & external testers.
