• Proven experience in improving test automation frameworks or designing and implementing them from scratch. 
• Extensive, hands-on experience with Unreal Engine is required. 
• Excellent programming skills in both C# (for writing tests and improving the testing solution library) and C++ (for working in Unreal and the implementation on the engine side). 
• Proficiency with .NET testing frameworks such as NUnit or xUnit. 
• Experience with CI/CD tools (e.g. Jenkins, GitLab CI, TeamCity). 
• Familiarity with test management and bug tracking software (e.g. JIRA, TestRail). 
• Strong experience in version control systems: Git and Perforce. 
• Demonstrable experience with API testing and automation (ideally, in a gaming context). 
• A proactive and collaborative mindset, with a strong ability to work effectively in a team-oriented environment, but also autonomously. 
• A strong sense of ownership and a commitment to delivering high-quality work. 
• An eagerness to learn new technologies and continuously improve your skills.

Becoming part of Room 8 Group, you will:

• Design, develop, and maintain robust and scalable test automation frameworks and infrastructure for a large-scale, persistent world. 
• Create and implement automated tests for new and existing game features, APIs, and services, including those driven by AI. 
• Contribute to integration of automated testing into Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) pipelines to provide rapid feedback to the development teams. 
• Develop custom tools and utilities to improve testing efficiency, reporting, and defect analysis for a highly complex and dynamic environment. 
• Collaborate closely with developers, designers, Test Automation Engineers and QA analysts to identify automation opportunities and ensure comprehensive test coverage. 
• Provide technical guidance and support to the Test Automation Engineers on the effective use of our test automation frameworks and tools, including GameDriver. 
• Champion code quality and best practices through active participation in code reviews for both game code and test automation code. 
• Investigate and debug complex technical issues, and contribute to the resolution of technical challenges, particularly those related to non-deterministic systems. 
• Stay current with the latest trends and technologies in game development, test automation, and quality assurance. 

Join the team of inspiring game dev professionals, and get even more:

• Competitive financial reward (yes, we are fair enough);
