QA Tester | Minecraft (12-14 Month Contract)

Who is SkyBox Labs?


Recognized as one of BC's Top Employers (2025), SkyBox Labs is a game development studio that works on some of the world’s most iconic games. The studio is currently co-developing Halo Infinite, working on projects in the Minecraft universe, supporting the dev team at Bungie on Destiny, supporting development of Fallout 76, and working on original IP. Since our inception in 2011, SkyBox Labs has evolved from a group of 8 people to a team of over 250+ Engineers, Artists, Animators, Designers, Producers, and more! Join us in our Burnaby studio, or have the opportunity to work remotely within Canada for certain designated projects.


Skybox Labs is looking for a QA Tester to join our Minecraft team on a 12-14 month contract to cover a maternity leave. This is a great opportunity to work on one of the biggest game franchises in the world in a close-knit, collaborative team environment. If you have at least one year of experience in game testing (ideally on mobile platforms) and thrive in a structured yet dynamic game dev environment, we’d love to hear from you!


Please Note: This is a flexible hybrid role based out of our Burnaby, BC offices. Only local candidates will be considered.


A snapshot of your role:
  • Test Minecraft across iOS, Android, and Windows platforms, ensuring builds meet quality standards
  • Log and track bugs with clear, detailed reports
  • Execute test plans provided by the Senior QA Tester (no test plan writing required)
  • Perform scripted, unscripted, and ad-hoc testing on daily builds
  • Collaborate with developers and external teams to gather builds, check requests, and ensure smooth testing workflows
  • Adapt to occasional on-the-fly requests while handling daily, repetitive build checks
  • Identify opportunities to improve testing workflows and proactively share insights


Sound like you? This is what we’re looking for:
  • At least 1 year of experience in game QA testing, preferably on mobile (iOS, Android, Windows)
  • Strong bug writing and problem-solving skills
  • Familiarity with bug tracking software (Azure DevOps, Jira, or similar)
  • Good technical understanding of game development workflows and build pipelines
  • Self-starter with strong communication and collaboration skills
  • Comfortable working in a hybrid and small, independent team setting
  • Eager to learn, adaptable, and curious

Nice-to-Haves:
  • Mandarin language (written and/or verbal)
  • A passion for Minecraft or sandbox games
  • QA testing experience on PC/Console


And here is why we think you'll love working at SkyBox Labs:
  • Comprehensive health benefits
  • Flexible hybrid working arrangements: leverage our beautiful studio spaces as needed, and use our $400 work-from-home allowance to make your home office comfortable.
  • Take care of your mental health with our Employee Assistance Program and our free gym at our Burnaby Studio.
  • We relentlessly support your growth and development! Level up your C++ skills at SkyBox University, explore other disciplines through our Guild Program, and expand your game dev knowledge with Lunch & Learns. You’ll join a culture of empowerment, collaboration, and personal growth.
  • Social events! Have fun with the team at trivia nights, karaoke nights, movie nights, and various group activities. Join our soccer team, game jams, or a board game sesh after work. You name it, we’ve got it!
  • Get involved with our diverse community through Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) that champion Diversity, Equity & Inclusion initiatives and promote a supportive environment.
  • You’ll contribute to industry-leading titles, from legendary AAA franchises to Original IP.

The base salary range for this position is $42,000 to $58,000. The stated pay scale reflects the range that SkyBox Labs reasonably expects to pay for this position. Your base salary will be determined by various factors including, but not limited to, qualifications, skills, and experience.


Our commitment to you:


SkyBox Labs is proud to be an equal opportunity employer, committed to developing and maintaining a diverse workforce. You’ll join a collaborative, inclusive culture. One where we succeed together – across the desk and around Canada. Where like-minded people work naturally together to achieve great things (and games!).


Only candidates who reside in Canada or are willing to relocate will be considered for this role. Additionally, although we appreciate all interest, only those candidates selected for an interview will be contacted.
