Senior QA Engineer Location - UK South Becoming part of our team Own Quality. Enable Speed. Drive Better Engineering Practices. In the words of one of our senior clients recently… "Market Research has changed more in the last 3 years than the previous 40" We are looking for an experienced Senior QA Engineer to help strengthen quality across our products and platform while enabling faster and safer delivery. You will work within a Scrum team alongside developers, product owners and DevOps engineers, helping ensure quality is built into the development process rather than tested at the end. In our engineering model, developers own most automated testing, including unit, API, integration and performance tests. QA focuses on exploratory testing, risk analysis, end-to-end behaviour and ensuring the overall quality of our systems. This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys working closely with developers and influencing how quality is approached within modern engineering teams. What you will be doing Working in a microservices-based .NET environment with CI/CD, you will help teams deliver software frequently and safely. Your responsibilities will include: • Working within Scrum teams to embed quality thinking early in the development lifecycle., • Supporting developers in building strong unit, API, integration and performance testing., • Promoting shift-left practices to detect issues earlier in development., • Performing exploratory, risk-based and end-to-end testing where automation alone is insufficient., • Identifying system risks, edge cases and integration issues early., • Contributing to improving test automation frameworks and CI/CD testing workflows., • Helping reduce flaky tests and improve confidence in automated pipelines., • Participating actively in refinement, planning and retrospectives, ensuring quality considerations are included. What success looks like Success in this role means teams are able to release software frequently and confidently, supported by reliable automation and strong engineering practices. You will help ensure that: • Developers take ownership of automated testing., • Defects are found early rather than late in the process., • QA effort focuses on risk and system behaviour, not repetitive manual testing., • Automated tests provide fast and trusted feedback in CI/CD pipelines. Quality discussions focus on risk, impact and outcomes, not simply test counts or pass rates. Technical background You should have experience working in Agile teams where quality is a shared engineering responsibility. We are particularly interested in candidates who understand shift-left testing and developer-led automation. Experience with the following is desirable: • Test automation in .NET / C# environments, • UI automation tools such as Selenium, • BDD frameworks such as Reqnroll, • Test frameworks such as NUnit, xUnit or MSTest, • API testing using REST, Postman or Swagger/OpenAPI, • CI/CD pipelines and automated testing workflows, • SQL and relational databases such as SQL Server or MySQL, • Cloud environments, ideally Microsoft Azure, • Microservices architectures Experience with Docker, contract testing, performance testing tools such as K6, or feature flag driven development would be beneficial. Collaboration and influence While this is not a people-management role, you will act as a senior quality voice within your team. You will: • Work closely with developers to improve testing practices., • Review and guide automated tests written by developers., • Share quality engineering practices with other QA engineers across teams. Why join us You’ll be joining a modern engineering environment built around CI/CD, microservices and cloud technologies, where quality is treated as an engineering responsibility rather than a final gate. This role offers the opportunity to work in teams where: • Developers actively participate in testing, • Automation is central to how we deliver software, • QA focuses on insight, risk and improving engineering practices If you enjoy working closely with developers, improving testing practices, and helping teams deliver high-quality software faster, this is a role where you can make a real impact.

Lead Gameplay Developer Location: Remote-first Type: Full-time Start: ASAP About Couch Heroes At Couch Heroes, we’re exploring new ground for the MMO genre. In a world where fantasy and ancient technology intertwine, players explore shattered realms, grapple across verticality, solve puzzles, and push back corruption, with progression driven by player expression and discovery. We envision bridging generations of gamers, creating a space where both coexist and journey together. We’re developing in Unreal Engine, in early production, with a team spanning multiple countries. We’re remote-first, based in the UK, and scaling to support a multi-year live-service roadmap. We value autonomy, curiosity, and collaborative ownership, and we’re looking for creators who want to help build something from the ground up. Sound like your kind of thing? We should talk. About the Job The systems that define how players interact with the world, each other, and the game’s core mechanics are built by gameplay engineers. We need a Lead Gameplay Developer who can own the technical implementation of our core gameplay systems and build the engineering team that delivers them. You will report to the CTO and manage a growing team of gameplay engineers. You will make technical design decisions, stay hands-on with implementation, and represent the gameplay engineering discipline across the studio in production planning, design reviews, and resourcing decisions. We are in early production. The studio has been running for three years, but core gameplay systems including combat, traversal, abilities, progression, and multiplayer interaction are still being architected and prototyped. You will be making foundational technical decisions that define how the game feels, scales, and evolves over years of live service. Your Role People Leadership and Team Development • Manage a growing team of gameplay engineers as the team scales through production: set priorities, assign work, balance workload, and run regular 1:1s focused on progress, career development, and honest feedback., • Lead performance reviews and goal setting aligned to production milestones and individual development plans. Identify skill gaps and address them through coaching, stretch assignments, or training., • Represent the gameplay engineering discipline in cross-discipline leads meetings, production planning, and resourcing conversations. Advocate for team needs and capacity., • Foster a team culture of technical rigour, clean code practices, and collaborative problem solving., • Support hiring as the team grows: contribute to job descriptions, design technical assessments, and participate in interview loops. Gameplay Systems and Implementation • Own the technical design and implementation of core gameplay systems in Unreal Engine 5, including combat, traversal, abilities, player interaction, and progression mechanics., • Architect gameplay systems for a persistent MMO context: server-authoritative logic, client prediction, ability replication, and state synchronisation across distributed server infrastructure., • Collaborate closely with game design and level design to translate design intent into robust, tuneable, and extensible gameplay code. Build systems that designers can iterate on without requiring engineering support for every change., • Stay hands-on with C++ and Blueprint implementation. Build, profile, and iterate alongside your engineers, establishing technical quality benchmarks and code architecture patterns., • Work with animation, VFX, and audio teams to integrate gameplay systems with presentation layers: ability visuals, hit feedback, audio cues, and UI responses. Technical Architecture and Performance • Define coding standards, architecture patterns, and review processes for gameplay code. Ensure the codebase remains maintainable and extensible as the team and feature set grow., • Profile and optimise gameplay systems for MMO-scale performance: tick budgets, replication bandwidth, ability processing in dense combat scenarios, and memory management., • Collaborate with online services and network engineering to ensure gameplay systems work reliably under real-world latency and server load conditions., • Work with production to manage scope, schedules, and task breakdowns for gameplay engineering work. Contribute to milestone planning, sprint scoping, and capacity forecasting., • Use playtesting observations and telemetry data to identify technical issues with gameplay feel, responsiveness, and fairness. Must-Haves • Proven experience in game development, with at least one shipped title in a gameplay engineering or gameplay lead role., • Proven experience of direct people management: running 1:1s, setting goals, conducting performance reviews, and developing team members., • Strong C++ proficiency with production experience in Unreal Engine, including Gameplay Ability System, replication, and Blueprint integration., • Experience building gameplay systems for multiplayer or online games, with a working understanding of server authority, client prediction, and state replication., • Demonstrated ability to translate game design concepts into well-architected, extensible, and performant code., • Strong communication and documentation skills, with proven experience collaborating across disciplines (design, art, animation, audio, network) to ship integrated gameplay features. Nice-to-Haves • Experience shipping at least one MMO or persistent online world from production through live service., • Experience with Unreal Engine’s Gameplay Ability System (GAS) at scale, including custom ability tasks, gameplay effects, and attribute sets., • Familiarity with AI systems for NPC behaviour, encounter scripting, or enemy design., • Experience with data-driven design approaches where designers author gameplay content through configuration rather than code changes., • Exposure to anti-cheat considerations and exploit mitigation in competitive or economy-driven multiplayer games. About You • You lead by investing in people. You find genuine satisfaction in watching your team grow and you actively develop the engineers around you., • You care about how systems feel to the player, not just whether they function correctly. Frame data, input responsiveness, and gameplay feel matter to you., • You are comfortable working through ambiguity. Early production means not everything is defined yet, and you see that as an opportunity to shape the right technical approach., • You balance technical elegance with delivery pragmatism. You know when to architect for the future and when to prototype quickly to validate design., • You work autonomously in a remote environment, proactively keeping your team aligned and your stakeholders informed., • We are committed to making our hiring process accessible. If you require reasonable adjustments at any stage, please let us know. Couch Heroes have partnered with Skillsearch on this hire.
