About Offworld

Offworld Industries Ltd. (Offworld) is the independent studio behind the successful military first-person shooter game, “Squad”. Offworld was formed in 2014 by more than 15 developers who had worked together on the well-known Project Reality mod for Battlefield 2. The founding purpose of the team was to bring a standalone successor of this acclaimed mod to market and build a game development studio and a livelihood from that foundation.

Fast forward to 2025, Offworld has over 140 employees and is rapidly growing. We have been expanding the studio into serving as a publisher supporting mods and have just announced our upcoming title "Starship Troopers : Extermination", a 16-player PvE first-person shooter based on the 1997 cult-classic film.

We are built on passion, unified spirit and continuing efforts to break the mold. We strive to become a leader in creating large-scale multiplayer games as well as supplying others with the ability to do the same. We are looking for a talented Lead QA for our current and upcoming Unreal Engine based multiplayer games. If you are passionate about making great games and a team player, we are looking for you!

Responsibilities

  • Tracking bug metrics, including reopen rates, bug fix trajectory, bug defer rate
  • Maintaining a complete and up-to-date list of all known bugs and issues and their progress
  • Provide Mentorship to the other QA team members
  • Performance reviews for direct reports
  • Managing testing best practices
  • Creating and maintaining Testrail testplans and test cases
  • Maintaining the bug backlog
  • Writing and maintaining documentation on testing procedures and workflows
  • Attend meetings and coordinate with Project Leads
  • Smoke testing and sanity testing new features and bugfixes
  • Coordinate large scale playtests
  • Signing off on key milestones
  • Keep your team informed of deadlines, timelines and testing priorities

Requirements

  • 5 years in QA Lead position or similar
  • Education - strong written and verbal communication skills in English
  • Analytical mindset - a demonstrable ability to deconstruct a problem into components and develop effective testing strategies that are efficient and take a lateral view to cover edge cases.
  • Methodical - QA requires discipline in order to provide complete coverage, and to collaborate with others to achieve goals.
  • Entrepreneurial - Proactively takes the initiative, owns their area, a flexible ‘have a go’ attitude to getting the job done.
  • Flexible - Workloads can vary during the periods leading up to releases; being flexible and shifting gears is key there. Occasionally, there can be a request to keep an eye on things outside office hours, for example, during a public playtest or shortly after a release or occasional collaboration outside standard business hours. We try to minimize this, but flexibility is especially helpful in those cases.
  • Desirable traits

  • Experience in Game Testing a must
  • High level of gaming knowledge
  • Passion for Squad and / or other military-themed FPS games
  • Firm grasp of the Software Development Production Pipeline and willingness to help shape and improve it

  • Strong knowledge of Jira or other bug tracking software
  • Strong knowledge of Testrail or other test case tracking software
  • Familiarity with Unreal Engine a plus
  • Experience leading outsource testers
  • Experience with PC testing and working knowledge of current gaming platforms
  • This is a full-time, fixed-term 12-month contract position, with the requirement to work from our office five days per week. There is the possibility of an extension or transition to a permanent role based on the needs of the business.

    This role offers

  • Extended health and dental benefits
  • 2 weeks of paid vacation
  • Wonderful colleagues!
  • If you meet the above qualifications, and Offworld sounds like the kind of company you want to be a part of, please apply now with a copy of your resume.
