At Charged Monkey, we are a team of talented and experienced game makers.
Our ambitions are huge, and only a world-class team could achieve them. To date, we’ve built a team of incredibly talented individuals from all over the world, who together are bringing industry-defining games to life.

In partnership with SCOPELY, one of the biggest gaming studios worldwide (known for IPs like “MONOPOLY GO!”, “Star Trek™ Fleet Command”, “Stumble Guys,” “MARVEL Strike Force”, etc.), we are in the early stages of development on an ambitious, unannounced, cross-platform Strategy/MMO title. 

Do you want to be part of talented and passionate game makers to join us on this exciting journey?

We are seeking an experienced Senior QA Specialist to join our team based in Bratislava or Prague on a hybrid or on-site basis. 

What will you do?

As a Senior QA Specialist, you will take ownership of quality within your assigned game area, ensuring high testing standards and alignment within your team. Working closely with the QA Lead, you will identify testing priorities and help discover potential risks early in the production cycle, while fostering seamless collaboration between QA, design, and engineering. You will act as a technical subject matter expert and a mentor, helping to elevate the overall quality bar of the project.

• Quality Ownership & Expertise: You will drive QA efforts within your team, ensuring efficient testing, complete coverage, and alignment with project milestones. Acting as a key QA point of contact, you’ll maintain timely and clear communication with the members of your team and others, be they production, design, or engineering to deliver high-quality results and ensure that quality standards are upheld throughout the development cycle.
• Professional Guidance & Mentorship: You will provide technical guidance and mentorship to other QA Analysts, supporting their daily work and professional growth through knowledge sharing and best practices. Together with the QA Lead you will foster a collaborative, high-performing environment by promoting accountability and encouraging continuous learning and improvement across the QA team.
• Planning & Strategy: You will develop and maintain comprehensive test plans and strategies aligned with design and technical requirements, overseeing their execution across gameplay, systems, UI, and backend components. You’ll ensure consistent coverage across platforms, identifying gaps and suggesting adjustments as the project evolves.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: You will collaborate with engineers, producers, and designers to integrate quality standards throughout development, from concept to release. Working with localization, deployment, and live ops teams, you’ll help validate updates and patches while collaborating with external QA partners to maintain consistent quality and delivery standards.
• Quality Insights & Process Optimization: You will analyze data and defect trends to identify risks and root causes, providing clear insights to your team and QA leadership. You’ll deliver concise QA reports on coverage and release readiness while helping drive process improvements, automation, and workflow optimizations to enhance overall efficiency.
• Release & Live Operations Support: You will support release readiness testing to ensure stable, high-quality builds across all platforms. You’ll support incident triage, regression testing, and post-release analysis to maintain stability and performance while helping maintain a scalable QA framework that supports the project’s growth into live operations.

What are we looking for?

• 5+ years of QA experience in the video game industry
• Proven experience overseeing QA for complex gameplay systems or live service titles
• Strong understanding of QA processes, methodologies, and risk-based testing approaches
• Skilled in planning, scheduling, and coordinating QA efforts in multidisciplinary teams
• Proficient in JIRA, test management, and version control or build management tools
• Familiarity with Unity and experience testing across multiple platforms (mobile, PC, console)
