The posting

QA Lead - Social

Are you on a mission to create games that bond players together into deeply invested communities? Would you like to work on something comedic with lighthearted and whimsical characters? Do you spend your time deconstructing social interactions within PvP games? Do you think deeply about the most valuable areas to focus your time and effort? Would you consider yourself allergic to inefficiency?

As a QA Lead at teamLFG, you will drive the QA Strategy for the Social areas of an Unannounced Project from production to launch. You will work closely with Design, Production, Engineering, and Art team counterparts to understand the complex systems that drive the Social area of a competitive PvP game. You will then use that knowledge to design QA plans and strategies to ensure the quality of the holistic game experience. You will work with the QA Director to establish good QA processes and evangelize them throughout the team. Most importantly, you will work with a fun, dedicated, cross-disciplinary team devoted to turning a creative dream into a new franchise at PlayStation.

We look for candidates who value joining a mission-focused team with a diverse set of backgrounds, experiences, interests, and viewpoints.

RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Develop an understanding of the product from both a player value and technical systems point of view
  • Build, maintain, and execute a cross-disciplinary QA strategy for the Social portions of a competitive multiplayer game
  • Spot problems in our processes and toolchains to identify and solve quality issues as early as possible
  • Partner with engineering to identify and build tooling and automation strategies that make the product more stable
  • Train and supervise a team of external QA staff as part of your QA plans
  • Work with the QA Director to help define and maintain team-wide quality assurance standards and practices attuned to the needs of the business

REQUIRED SKILLS

  • Proficiency with technical testing for systems that have limited player-facing experiences (matchmaking, crossplay/cross save, account entitlements)
  • Ability to define a QA strategy that incorporates business, project, and systems needs
  • Ability to quickly understand how the systems in the game are built and use that knowledge to design efficient test coverage
  • Ability to negotiate, ratify, and drive plans in alignment with cross-disciplinary leads
  • Understanding of risks, constraints, business needs, and player value and ability to adjust plans accordingly
  • Experience directing external Test or QA staff
  • Experience with social experiences in games such as: matchmaking, friends, clans, chat systems, trust and safety features
  • Embrace a "we" culture in addition to being an outstanding collaborator and communicator

NICE-TO-HAVE SKILLS

  • Experience managing full-time QA staff
  • Experience working on a project from pre-production to live support
  • Experience shipping a live-service game requiring high sustained game stability and quality
  • Experience developing and shipping a title using Unreal Engine
  • Experience with a variety of platforms (PC, Console)
  • Degree in Computer Science, Game Design, or related fields

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.
