Vetted QA Engineers in the Los Angeles Metro

“Game QA Lead/embedded QA with live production experience supporting a public alpha, owning narrative/early-game content quality and quest progression stability. Known for driving rapid resolution of high-impact blockers via consistent repros, cross-discipline coordination, and data-backed reporting (including bot-based success/failure measurement), while maintaining sprint-aligned test plans and documentation in JIRA/Confluence and leading developer playtests for gameplay feel/polish.”

“QA/engineering background spanning Riot Games (VALORANT leaderboard systems) and early-stage startups. Has hands-on experience improving performance and reliability via caching, rate limiting, deduplication/idempotency, and shipping/validating high-stakes production hotfixes; also builds Next.js/TypeScript projects and automation/internal tools (Python).”

“Game/interactive software QA professional with experience spanning AAA titles (Activision Black Ops 3; Halo 4/Forge) and VR at Meta (The World Beyond). Notable for modernizing QA operations at Lego BrickLink Studio by implementing Testmo and dramatically increasing test coverage and user satisfaction, plus quickly diagnosing and unblocking a critical public-launch issue caused by misconfigured gatekeeper flags.”

“QA automation engineer with experience at Amazon Game Studios owning an end-to-end automated scale testing suite that simulates high-concurrency gameplay and captures performance telemetry. Improved coverage by bypassing hours of gameplay via programmatic state setup, enabling repeatable 4000-player dungeon-entry tests that exposed a messaging-queue bottleneck fixed before release. Also built maintainable Selenium/pytest UI automation with CI gating, reporting, and flake-reduction patterns.”

“QA automation engineer who built and maintained a Selenium WebDriver + Java hybrid framework (data/keyword-driven) using POM, TestNG, and Maven, and integrated it into CI with PR gating and nightly regression. Strong focus on stabilizing flaky tests (wait strategies, locator robustness, test data control) and caught a critical UI/backend mismatch that could have caused duplicate money transfers before release.”

“Game designer with shipped experience on MLB The Show 20 (Road to the Show mode) and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (2019) campaign NVG feature, with a focus on progression tuning and realism/authenticity constraints. Currently building an Unreal Engine 5 game using Blueprints for level/VFX/interactions and C++ for scripting, iterating on exploration features like entering buildings.”
