  • Own project-level QA reporting, forecasting, and stakeholder communication.
  • Make resource planning and allocation decisions to support project needs.
  • Manage escalations relating to quality, delivery, staffing, and operational concerns.
  • Partner closely with Production, Development, and leadership teams to support project success.
  • Drive continuous improvement across QA processes, workflows, tools, and methodologies.
  • Support recruitment, career development, succession planning, and capability growth within the QA department.
  • Ensure QA practices align with studio objectives, production goals, and business priorities.

What You Bring

  • 12+ years of experience in QA within the games industry.
  • Shipped at least 5 AAA titles through a full development cycle.
  • Proven experience managing QA teams on large-scale game development projects.
  • Strong understanding of QA methodologies, production processes, and project delivery practices.
  • Experience defining QA strategies, quality objectives, and testing approaches at project level.
  • Demonstrated success managing resources, priorities, and delivery expectations across multiple teams.
  • Strong leadership, coaching, and people development skills.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities.
  • Experience managing project-level quality risks, delivery concerns, and escalation paths.
  • Ability to make informed decisions in complex and fast-moving development environments.
  • Passion for quality, continuous improvement, and team development.

Nice to Have

  • Experience supporting multiplayer, live-service, or large-scale AAA productions.
  • Experience with certification, compliance, and release management activities.
  • Experience managing external QA partners, vendors, or outsourcing relationships.
  • Strong understanding of Perforce, development pipelines, and game production workflows.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
