• Testing all our games to find issues in them before the release

• Documenting the issues into a bug database and assigning them to the relevant member of the development team as well as working with them to ensure the problem is solved.
• Working with Designers, Artists, and Programmers to improve the overall experience by suggesting improvements and changes

Your Hard Skills

• Strong critical thinking - ability to identify issues and bugs in games
• Excellent (English) communication skills - ability to describe identified issues in clear and concise manner
• A methodical, scientific and analytical mindset
• Knowledge of the PC, Console and Mobile Platforms in terms of hardware and software
• Passion for games
• Strong proficiency in usage of spreadsheets, MS office and PC & internet
• Ability to work effectively with other team-members
• Flexibility to adapt to changes in project requirements and instructions, and to work as per shift-timings applicable to project

Your Soft Skills
Kwalee has grown fast in recent years but we're very much a family of colleagues. We welcome people of all ages, races, colours, beliefs, sexual orientations, genders and circumstances, and all we ask is that you collaborate, work hard, ask questions and have fun with your team and colleagues.

We don't like egos or arrogance and we love playing games and celebrating success together. If that sounds like you, then please apply.
