City State Entertainment is an independent video game development studio founded in March 2011, in Fairfax, Virginia, by online gaming pioneer Mark Jacobs and accomplished programmer, Andrew Meggs. Over the last few years, the studio has grown to 31 hard-working, sarcastic and politically incorrect individuals. In October 2012, they released their first game, March on Oz, for Apple's iPad. The studio embodies an “open office” collaborative process where all team members are expected to contribute to the design and the development process. The team is currently in pre-production of their second game, Camelot Unchained, a niche RvR old-school MMORPG.

City State Entertainment is looking for a staff QA Engineer to help us create Camelot Unchained, a massive realm vs realm vs realm MMORPG. This position would be at either our Fairfax, Virginia Headquarters, or our Seattle, Washington satellite office.

Role and Responsibilities
As our staff QA engineer, your job would entail implementing and leveraging test practices, creating test cases and test plans, developing light automation, and regressing and documenting community reported issues. You will work closely with the community team, designers, dev-ops team, and production to ensure accurate quality testing, as well as quality defect reporting in JIRA.

Preferred Qualifications
•    2+ years of experience with testing in games.
•    Able to write clear, concise bug reports.
•    Maintain and update test plans and test matrixes.
•    Strong analytical problem solving and test abstraction experience.
•    Highly teachable, and able to learn and develop technical ability.

Bonus
•    Ability to generate test automation in Powershell or C# (this is a HUGE bonus)
•    Experience testing MMORPGs
•    Experience with AWS
•    Familiarity with JIRA

Note: City State Entertainment is hiring for a broad range of positions on a growing team. We have definite skill and task needs, but the eventual division of tasks within the team will depend on the eventual team members. If you’re an outstanding and talented individual whose qualifications fall halfway between two of our listings, we’d still like to hear from you. All candidates must have excellent written and verbal communication skills and be able to work on-site at our Washington DC-area office or our Seattle, Washington satellite office in the U.S.A. We are an emphatically equal-opportunity employer.
