Role Overview:

Ever noticed an issue with your games console and wanted to provide a solution that will help millions of consumers? This is the job for you.

Throughout the year we regularly conduct Software updates to the PS5 which require robust testing. You will investigate, diagnose, and provide accurate reporting for a variety of tests.

Based out of our Liverpool City Centre Office we are looking for passionate and enthusiastic testers to join the team and make a difference to our players experience.

We offer on-the job training, so you won’t need prior experience in gaming/testing, as long as you are keen to learn.

• Check released and newly submitted titles on firmware currently under development.
• Test new firmware features, prototype/pre-production hardware and peripherals.
• Ensure all bugs are identified and thoroughly investigated.
• Ensure all bug information, including classification, is accurately recorded and legibly written in preparation for the Team Leader to sign off and submit.
• Check existing bugs against newer builds of firmware, making the Team Leader aware of any bugs found that may belong to another department.
• Follow and complete all test cases provided & ensure all relevant PFQE procedures are followed.

What we are looking for:

Communication/Collaboration:

• Style and Impact- The ability to adapt behaviour appropriately to a range of personality and cultures.
• Inclusivity - The ability to work collaboratively with others to achieve common goals.
• Handling Change - Able to adapt and thrive in a fast-paced environment.

Technical Ability:
