• Player Flow & Accessibility: Validate onboarding, account creation, navigation flows, and internal deep-linking behaviours to ensure players can access and engage with all key features smoothly
• Regression & Compatibility Testing: Conduct structured regression passes and stability checks following feature implementations, UI changes, and engine or Unity upgrades, identifying regressions and maintaining cross-platform compatibility
• Bug Tracking & Reporting: Log and track issues in JIRA, ensuring all defects are clearly documented with reproducible steps, environment details, and supporting evidence.
• Test Planning & Documentation: Develop and maintain clear, detailed test cases, test plans, and regression checklists that evolve alongside the project’s systems and features
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Work closely with engineers, designers, and producers to align testing coverage with feature goals, ensuring efficient communication and timely resolution of quality issues
• Quality Advocacy: Provide structured feedback on gameplay balance, usability, technical performance, and overall product polish

• Familiarity with Unity and experience validating large-scale systems following engine upgrades or refactors
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with meticulous attention to detail
• Proficiency in JIRA or similar bug tracking tools
• Excellent communication skills and a proactive, self-directed approach to collaboration
