At Bungie, we take pride in how QA helps ensure healthy pipelines that consistently deliver amazing experiences to our players. We accomplish this by fostering a collaborative but critical environment where QA has an equal seat at the table alongside all of the other development disciplines.
As a Senior Test Manager, you will establish and oversee long-term preventative-care QA strategies by collaborating with cross-discipline leadership throughout all phases of development. You will be responsible for navigating both your QA team and your cross-discipline leadership team towards team-owned quality in your area. You will work across disciplines to create and upkeep best practices and KPIs for measuring and guiding organizational and project health. You will partner with cross-discipline leadership to evolve development pipelines towards healthy preventative workflows, collect and leverage data sets to pursue business goals, partner with SDETs and Engineering to leverage shift-left automation, and sustainably ship and support live service content and code to external and internal customers.
Senior Test Manager roles include management and leadership of various QA staffing strategies including internal QA FTEs, ex-dev and co-dev partners, and outsourced test coverage. You will need to thoughtfully delegate large deliverables to your QA team in order to focus your time on creating systemic cultures of quality across all disciplines in your area.
