QA Tester

Who are we?

Each month, millions of people spend their free time playing modded roleplay servers on GTA, GMod and more. That's why we're building HELIX, the one-stop shop for creating and playing open-world sandbox and 'social roleplay' servers. HELIX is free, fun and powered by Unreal Engine 5. That's where you come in.

We're looking for a QA Tester to help us make HELIX as bug-free and user-friendly as possible, for both players and creators / modders.

About the role

We're looking for a self-determined, detail-oriented QA Tester with great communication skills. You'll test HELIX as both a player and a creator / modder, reporting bugs and issues. At Hypersonic QA is embedded — you'll be in the mix in the teams you support, able to answer your own questions and get everything you need to help make HELIX bug free for players and creators.

You'll collaborate with engineers, scripters, and your Lead to identify, document, and track bugs and usability issues. This is a great opportunity to get hands-on experience with UE5, Lua scripting, and UGC toolsets in a dynamic, remote environment where you can learn and grow.

What you will be doing

• Test HELIX, its features and tools, ensuring they function as intended.

• Write and execute manual (and increasingly automated) tests on new builds and releases, for functionality, performance and user experience.

• Track bugs and issues using our bug tracking tools, providing clear and actionable reports.

• Service internal dev teams, collaborating closely to understand the product you're testing and provide feedback from a user / tester perspective.

• Use our Lua APIs to test features in the Lua layer, as if you were a creator / modder.

• Advocate for QA and testing within the team, helping improve processes.

What we will need from you

• Excellent remote communication over text and voice/video chat.

• You are highly self-determined and can figure things out, clear your own blockers etc.

• You are a detail-oriented problem solver.

• You want to learn and grow.

• Experience working in QA testing in some capacity (all levels of experience considered).

• A passion for gaming and a keen interest in game development (platforms).

• A basic understanding of game development engines (HELIX is build on Unreal Engine 5).

Nice to have

• Lua scripting experience is a big plus.

• Experience with GTA V modding (GTA RP, FiveM etc) is a big plus.

• Experience with UGC platforms or modding is a big plus.

• Understanding of source control systems (Git, GitHub, Perforce etc) is a bonus.
