QA Engineer

Splitgate is a “Halo meets Portal" viral video game in Beta that officially released in August by 1047 Games. We quickly became the #1 trending game on PlayStation, XBOX, and Steam before we had to limit how many users could play. In our first 6 days, we passed 1M downloads, and hit 2M within the first two weeks. We’re now at 14M+ downloads and growing. We currently have been able to support ~175K concurrent users, our goal is to scale to great heights beyond that. 

As a QA on our team, you will have the opportunity to own the testing process, risk management, and quality evaluation of a given Splitgate feature functionality or set of work, where you will be part of a rapidly iterating development team working closely with professional and highly technical developers. As such, you will be at the center of both game and engine development and technology.
