We are looking for a Senior QA Test Automation Engineer to start and scale our test automation efforts across our Unity-based mobile games for iOS and Android.

In this high-impact role, you will help to shape and drive the automation strategy, architect scalable and maintainable frameworks, and integrate automated testing into our CI/CD pipelines to protect release stability and accelerate delivery.

You will work closely with Games QA, Game Developers, and SDK/Engine teams to establish automation as a core pillar of our quality strategy.

While automation will be your primary focus, we value a pragmatic mindset. You should also be comfortable stepping into manual testing when needed to support releases or investigate complex issues.

Job Responsibilities

  • Lead the automation strategy for Unity mobile games

  • Design and develop scalable automation frameworks and tooling

  • Integrate automated tests into CI/CD pipelines to gate merges and protect the main branch
