Invoke is looking for a senior Development tester to work closely with developers and test their work in the editor or in preflight builds before it reaches the rest of the team.
Dev testers work close to the code and content, so your bugs point to root causes rather than symptoms.
You'll be embedded with one or more cells or crafts and grow into a specialist on their features, helping catch risky changes early and keep the main branch stable.

Collaborate with the team to understand the overall game vision and documentation.
Identify bugs and assist in developing test plans for features.
Follow up on functionality bugs found by internal and external teams, and assist in sorting, prioritizing, and assigning them the right developers internally.
Work with others to fix features, suggest solutions to setbacks, and share knowledge.
Meet with the development team to discuss progress and provide creative input.
Build test gyms for the team.
Create custom game versions, reproducing bugs to evaluate their risks.
Write and maintain documentation, detailing bugs found, their sources and what information to provide to assist developers in resolving them.
Contribute to coming up with ideas for automated tests & solutions to optimize the testing process.
Assist with the analysis of test results.
