Description

Remote Game Tester (Beta Testing)

Make Your Mark on the Future of Gaming

Picture this: You’re the first to play tomorrow’s games—finding hidden gems, uncovering bugs before anyone else, and shaping the player experience for thousands around the globe. If you see glitches as puzzles to solve and believe every level should feel magical, your feedback is the heartbeat of what makes a game unforgettable. Join us in reimagining how games are tested, not by following checklists but by raising the bar for immersive, joyful, and bug-free experiences.

Why This Role Matters

Every launch is a leap of faith. Developers pour years into building, but only sharp-eyed, creative testers can ensure their work lands flawlessly. You’ll be that last line—the player who turns a good game into a great one. Your reports and playthrough notes don’t just fill out forms; they drive design decisions, protect game quality, and help teams build for fun, flow, and fairness. The $45,500 annual salary reflects the real value you bring, directly shaping titles millions will play.

Your Impact & Daily Adventures

  • Dive into beta releases across genres—from strategy to VR, adventure to puzzle—and push the limits of what the game can do.
  • Pinpoint, record, and articulate bugs so clearly that even someone new to the codebase can fix them without confusion.
  • Collaborate in online playtests, group chats, and feedback sessions where your voice is never lost in the crowd.
  • Balance deep focus with rapid iteration: play, analyze, replay, and help build new worlds with every cycle.
  • Provide fresh player perspectives on tutorials, controls, progression, and in-game economy, ensuring no frustration slips through.
  • Test cross-platform play, multiplayer sync, and remote connectivity using today’s best beta-testing tools and cloud platforms.

Tools & Remote Work Environment

You’ll play and report from wherever you’re most inspired. All you need is a stable internet connection, a decent gaming setup (PC, console, or mobile), and a knack for detailed observation. You’ll work with collaborative bug-tracking suites, voice and video chat for group sessions, and cloud-based version management. Think Discord, Trello, Jira, and a digital notepad that never fills up. Our asynchronous team meetings allow you to control your work rhythm, with weekly syncs to share discoveries and maintain momentum.

What Sets You Up for Success

  • Experience with a broad mix of games (even if it’s as a passionate player) and curiosity about what makes each one tick.
  • A natural eye for detail—you notice the frame drop that others miss or the tutorial that’s just a bit too long.
  • You simplify complex observations—whether it’s writing a bug report that anyone can follow or explaining mechanics to a developer over Slack.
  • Willingness to try new genres, master unfamiliar controls, and approach playtesting like a detective unraveling mysteries.
  • A spirit for team play: You thrive on sharing insights and lifting others with your observations, not just checking off boxes.

Growth, Learning & Collaboration

Games evolve quickly, and so will you. From structured onboarding to in-depth bug hunts and collaborative feedback sessions, you’ll learn from both industry veterans and passionate peers. We move fast, but you’ll always have space to pause, focus, and explore what makes each build better. Every release is a team celebration, and your fingerprints are on every feature that ships polished and loved.

Your Voice Drives Change

When you flag a progression blocker, it’s fixed. When you call out a feature that could shine, designers take note. Your ideas, experiments, and user stories will resonate throughout the development timeline—from initial alpha to launch and beyond. You’ll partner with engineers, designers, and fellow testers, creating an environment where “what if” becomes “let’s try.”

What You’ll Need

  • Reliable internet and a device (or two) for gaming and remote meetings
  • Love for games and a hunger for uncovering what makes them work—or break
  • A way with words: Clear, concise feedback and a sense of humor never hurt
  • The ability to manage your own time, juggle playtests, and deliver feedback without micromanagement
  • Comfort with tools like Jira, Discord, and Google Docs
  • Motivation to keep pushing for better every day
