Requisition Id: R_112806

Gram Games is the studio behind some of the most popular titles like 1010!, Six! and Merge Dragons! We also released Merge Magic! and have more awesome projects in the pipeline. We do things differently here: we work in small self-managing teams, enabling you to have an incredible amount of ownership, autonomy and impact. We’ll never ask you to abandon your craft and just focus on managing others or workload. 

At Gram everyone is expected to have a razor-sharp focus on what creates tangible impact: impact on their team, impact on their work environment and impact on the overall company strategy. If you are motivated by autonomy, constant improvement, collaboration and the sense of belonging, this is the job for you.

This is an excellent opportunity to pave the way in the gaming world for a more agile shift left approach. Working in Gram’s Infrastructure team that supports multiple studios your focus will be developing and maintaining automation frameworks, and supplementing the QA team’s script writing. 

Main Responsibilities:

  • Strategise, design, implement and iterate on Gram’s automation framework in Unity
  • Evaluate and maintain the integration with the device farm
  • Identify and implement new automation hooks into the game to support automation
  • Proactively identify gaps in the end-to-end automation solution and implement tools to fill them 
  • Manage the suites of automated tests and when they trigger on the build machines
  • Implement, collect and organise test artefacts that are output from automated tests
  • Create automated reports for pass/fail rates, reliability etc. 
  • Diagnose and manage failing tests, and categorise common failure reasons
  • Coach and mentor the QA team to utilise the automation frameworks 
  • Evangelise the attention of failed automated tests with the wider team
  • Evangelise the adoption of automated testing amongst Gram Dev teams
  • A SME and point of contact for automation within your team
  • Proactively identify where automated testing can add value to game feature development

Requirements 

  • All our games are built in Unity, so comprehensive experience with it is essential.
  • Experience using python and C#
  • Bachelor’s degree educated with a relevant degree or equivalent experience (3+ years) as a SDET/Technical QA Lead or similar role
  • Built at least 2 frameworks from inception or heavily involved in the creation and implementation of the framework
  • Able to review and analyse system requirements and understand technical architecture
  • Experience with end-to-end automation pipelines, including CI, device farms and reporting of results

Frequently Asked Questions

  • We prioritize job seekers as our customers, unlike bigger job sites, by charging a small fee to provide them with curated access to the best companies and up-to-date jobs. This focus allows us to deliver a more personalized and effective job search experience.
  • Salaries for the engineering jobs on our site range from $100K-$200K. On average, senior engineer positions on our EchoJobs are about $160K.
  • The EchoJobs positions have been sourced and vetted from the top companies to work for in the US as a software engineer, including LinkedIn and other reputable job sites. We also have syndicated jobs from companies that have just raised funding, as well as those that have great unique products and culture. From all of these sources, our founder, Morgan, has also resourced the company's authenticity in terms of their website, public appearance, and more.
  • Yes, our users asked us for just this, so now our search filters allow you to search for your top jobs via location, as well as by onsite, remote, or both. Approximately 30% of our jobs are remote, so you’ve got the best options for you!
  • We have not yet implemented this option, but are considering doing so in the future. For the moment, you would need to cancel your subscription, and resubscribe when you wanted to come back.
  • We add new jobs to EchoJobs every day! We scan our sources for the newest jobs, verify them, and post them to EchoJobs within minutes. We add about 2,000-3,000 new jobs for you each day!
  • From starting your job search to getting hired, the entire job search process can take us software engineers anywhere between 3-6 months. However, at EchoJobs, we’re striving to shorten this duration by finding the best, newest jobs for you, so you can do less job searching, and more applying.
  • We’d recommend checking EchoJobs daily, as we add new jobs to the site each day. Additionally, if you got a chance to read our previous email on “what makes EchoJobs different from any other job search tools,” we also recommended that you set a job alert based on your job filters, so if you get emails on those new jobs, you could be checking more than once per day.
  • If you decide to continue with us after the 1-month trial, we definitely recommend this, as we all know it usually takes 3-6 months to find a quality job as a software engineer these days. So to best support you, we just adjusted our membership options at EchoJobs to monthly, 3 months, or 12 months (this option is more for passive job seekers looking a little bit for the future if they want to come back to work or make a job switch potentially. This lets you see what’s out there in case an even better fit job becomes available.)
  • EchoJobs is truly the only job site of its kind. We want to be THE spot for you to find the best job for you, and haven’t encountered any other company doing this. Other job sites are in niches besides software engineering or focus on a small portion of engineering jobs (like a specific coding language). In the words of Morgan, our founder, “I think what makes EchoJobs different is the amount of jobs, frequency that we add new jobs (we add 2,000-3,000 new jobs daily!), and the powerful search engines to find exactly the job you want more easily and efficiently. We can provide you with the most jobs that are vetted by us, we’ll continually find more new jobs for you, and we make it easier for you to apply and get hired.
