Test Lead, Web and Mobile
3 years ago
At Bungie, we take pride in how Test helps to deliver amazing experiences to our players. We accomplish this by fostering a collaborative, but critical, environment where Test has an equal seat at the table alongside all of the other development disciplines.
As a Test Lead, you will coordinate and execute your area's coverage by collaborating with cross-discipline peers throughout all phases of development. Your role is to shine a bright light on risks at the earliest possible moment, and then, highlight potential healthy paths forward, weighing the tradeoffs and costs of your options. To create effective test strategies and mitigation plans, you will craft an in-depth understanding of our features and experiences. That will improve the value delivered to our players and keep our teams lean, flexible, and healthy.
Test Leads are responsible for their holistic areas. You must be able to craft and apply a unified approach to their area's features and content, as well as evolve that approach over time. By crafting robust future-facing strategies for consistently and sustainably building experiences that delight your customers, you will lead the conversation with our design and engineering teams on how to mitigate risks and deliver the most value to your users. Test Lead roles frequently include management and/or leadership of additional Test collaborators to ensure proper coverage for an area's combined work. Bungie’s Test Leads will often be expertise-driven individual contributors in their areas, and lead from the front of the battle as they dive into area coverage and test pass execution.
With the uncertainty and rapidly changing circumstances surrounding COVID-19, most positions at Bungie are expected to onboard and work from home for a significant portion of 2021. In 2022, most Bungie employees will adopt a flexible schedule working from home part time (outside of positions identified as either 100% onsite or fully remote in WA & CA). Currently only a select range of positions are available for full-time remote work in WA & CA (please review location for details). Prospective employees located outside of CA & WA will need to establish WA state residency within 45 days of a start date. Bungie’s work from home, flexible work schedule, and remote policy is subject to change at the company’s discretion.
