The Challenge Ahead

We are looking for a Snr QA for the Osiris team. You will be part of the Osiris QA team – reporting into our WWQA organization – for coordinating, organizing, and executing work assigned from the manager, ensuring consistency with process, methodologies, and results. Your primary goal is to achieve a high level of quality for the Osiris engine through executing and improving upon a quality program of extensive end-to-end tests, integration tests, and release/change management processes.

You will be expected to partner with development and game teams internally and externally to help improve the test and development processes, and proactively provide support as needed – Build Testing, Complex Bug Isolation, Risk Analysis, and Regressions. You will become a driver of the quality process and an expert of the Osiris engine with all its associated in-house and 3rd party tools.

While the main focus is to identify, isolate, regress and communicate bugs effectively and efficiently, you will be expected to help lead and be accountable for the members of your team, helping coach and mentor team members with the direction of the management team.
