    • Experience automating tests for APIs, services, and game or engine components.
    • Understanding of gameplay systems, player experience, and common issues in game development.
    • Experience working with CI/CD pipelines and version control systems.
    • Strong analytical, debugging, and problem-solving skills.
    • Ability to write clear documentation and communicate effectively with cross-functional teams.
