Job Description

QA Engineers are champions for quality, focused on testing to guarantee a holistic understanding of Riot's projects. They create test plans and evaluate both the functional and subjective caliber of projects for a Riot development team. As every project is different, they listen and improve, to put the players and their team first, and to solve ambiguous and complex problems. Most importantly, it's their passion and love for quality that ensures that QA Engineers help us level up and improve our processes, giving players the best experiences while playing our games.

As a QA Engineer II on Content Efficiency, you'll report to a QA Manager. You will advocate for high standards for the tools that developers and artists use on Legends of Legends and be the voice of quality to the team.

As the quality owner for the team, you'll set testing requirements with the product owners and engineers, holding them accountable to their commitments. You will use data to improve the efficiency and effect of quality development systems, preventing defects from being created. You will guide the implementation of static, dynamic, verification, and validation testing processes. You will test the software's functionality, performance, reliability, supportability, and usability. With player experience at the forefront of your mind, you'll take on complex and ambiguous problem spaces and assure quality for the team with your solutions.

Responsibilities:
• Know the users' needs for different tools, understanding different user profiles, and representing those users workflows through both verification and validation testing
• Drive creation, understanding, and execution of a team-level quality strategy
• Manage the defect database for the team, setting and enforcing best practices

• Automated testing frameworks with scripting languages like Python

For this role, you'll find success through craft expertise, a collaborative spirit, and choices that focus on your fellow Rioters, who are the customers of your work. Being a dedicated fan of games is not necessary for this position!
Our Perks:

We offer medical, dental, and vision plans that cover you, your spouse/domestic partner, and children.
