During my time as Lead QA Tester I learned a great deal about constructing a team of high ability testers, when to play to their strengths and when to focus on developing their skill set. The role demanded a heavy emphasis on effective team and time management while still being reactive enough to the needs of the development team.I was able to communicate with colleagues from various disciplines so that issues could be addressed as fast and efficiently as possible. This also included liaising directly with staff at Sony to ensure that each product going in to submission adhered to their Technical Requirement Checklist as close as possible. Managing the bug database and ensuring that all issues met a high standard was a key focus of mine not only to further develop the teams skills but to ensure that developers were able to understand the bug without any further communication necessary. It was also my responsibility to write test plans for the various aspects of testing covering Gameplay, Online Multiplayer, Graphics and Audio. I also spearheaded an initiative to build a knowledge database of past failures so that each submission was stronger than the last.During my time as Lead QA tester I oversaw the submission of the following products all of which released in European, American and Japanese territories;PixelJunk Shooter Ultimate - PS4, VitaFrozen Synapse Prime - PS3, Vita, Steam (Windows)I have also been involved with the following projects while in the QA Lead role;Nom Nom Galaxy - PS4, SteamGoat Simulator - Xbox 360, Xbox OneFrozen Synapse Prime - AndroidI thoroughly enjoyed my time in this role and hope to lead a team again in the future.

During my time as a development assistant my main focus was on QA testing. Learning how to test effectively, how to write bugs to a high calibre and how to communicate effectively colleagues from various disciplines.I developed a good knowledge base of test procedures for Gameplay, Multiplayer, Graphics and Audio aspects of development with a specialty in audio issues.This role was not limited to just QA during the course of a project other tasks would require an additional set of hands which I was always more than happy to provide. This would range from providing design documentation or basic Photoshop tasks to manual handling. Whatever the business required.During my time as a Development Assistant I worked on the following products all of which released in European, American and Japanese territories;LittleBigPlanet - VitaPixeljunk Monsters - Vita, Steam (Windows, Mac, Linux)Pixeljunk Shooter - Steam (Windows, Mac, Linux)
