Looking for a dedicated Game QA Lead who combines player intuition with rigorous, developer-ready technical testing? I am a Game QA Lead and Software Engineer with 3+ years of experience testing live, commercial, and indie games across PC (Steam), consoles, and mobile platforms. Unlike casual testers, I approach game testing through a structured engineering lens. I identify critical progression blockers, edge-case glitches, physics bugs, and UI/UX friction before your players encounter them. 🎮 Shipped & Live Games Tested: • Soulbound: Online (Steam) — Full QA Lead ownership across a live pixel art bullet heaven MMORPG. Owned release readiness, hotfix verification, live operations, quest debugging, and player progression. • Funko Fusion — Commercial multi-platform action-adventure release.
