QA Analyst

Quality Analyst

Liquidnitro Games is a game development company built to create, launch, and scale ambitious games for a global audience.

Founded by industry veterans with deep experience across free-to-play, live services, and large-scale game production agnostic of platforms, we bring together product thinking, design craft, engineering depth, art execution, data, and live operations under one roof.

We build games from the ground up, take new ideas from 0 to 1, and work with select partners to strengthen, scale, and operate high-quality game experiences.

Our teams combine creative ownership with production discipline, helping projects move from early prototypes to validated products, and from launch to long-term growth.

At Liquidnitro, we are building the next generation of game teams, products, and tools from India for the global games industry.

The Quality Analyst is responsible for hands-on testing of game projects, spanning both new game development and live services, with a strong focus on mobile games. This role involves designing and executing tests, identifying and reporting defects, and verifying that every build meets quality expectations before it reaches players.

You will work closely with the QA Lead, internal teams, and external partners to validate features, track issues through to resolution, and provide clear, timely feedback on build quality. This is an opportunity to shape directly player experiences while growing your skills within the QA practice at Liquidnitro.
