Supported by Bertelsmann, Europe's largest media company, we are equipped with the resources to push the boundaries of the mobile gaming space.


Weโ€™re seeking a proactive and detail-oriented Mid-Level QA Engineer to own the quality assurance process for our games.

  • Ownership:
  • Take responsibility for writing and implementing test cases, maintaining a high standard of quality assurance.
  • Release builds with minimal bugs, ensuring a polished and seamless player experience.
  • Independence & Leadership:
  • Work independently without supervision while providing limited guidance to less experienced team members.
  • Product Expertise:
  • Develop in-depth knowledge of priority products, staying up-to-date with the latest features and changes.
  • Sprint Contribution:
  • Actively participate in sprint planning and retrospectives, addressing QA challenges and contributing to process improvements.

Who you are:

  • Experience: 2โ€“4 years of experience in quality assurance in mobile game development.

  • Ability to write and manage detailed test cases and reports.
