OVERVIEW
At Bungie, we take pride in how Test helps deliver amazing experiences to our players. We accomplish this by crafting a preventative-care environment where QA has an equal seat at the table and where all members of the team are co-owners in quality.
As a Senior Test Lead joining an unannounced project, you will coordinate and oversee your small team's coverage by collaborating with cross-discipline peers throughout all phases of development from concept to post-ship. You will be responsible for a large holistic area and will carefully plan a unified approach months or years in advance for how your area's many features intersect and come together to build a cohesive player experience. In this role you will work with cross-discipline peers and test leadership to help establish early test best practices for your project's small teams going forward. You will have a deep impact on the way your project's small teams develop, the way test approaches planning and testing your project, how we collect and leverage data, how we partner with SDETs to leverage automation, and how we transition into a live service game. The project's teams are dedicated to developing in a sustainable and healthy way and you will be a critical part of realizing that vision.
You will lead the conversation with your cross-discipline leadership peers on how to mitigate complex project risks and deliver the most value to your players. Together with your Production, Engineering, and Design peers, you will craft robust future-facing strategies for consistently and sustainably delivering your area's holistic content while pivoting and evolving those strategies to meet ongoing needs. Senior Test Lead roles include management and leadership of full-time Test Engineers and Test Leads to ensure proper coverage for the large scope of your area's combined work. Bungie’s Senior Test Leads will need to thoughtfully and carefully delegate smaller areas and feature ownership as they lead via preemptive planning and strategy.
