Staff/Lead Software Developer in Test (SDET)

Job Title: Staff/Lead SDET Engineer (Test Automation Platform)

Product: Total Battle

Total Battle is a massive MMO 4X strategy game available on mobile and web, uniting millions of active players. As our product and engineering teams scale, we are shifting our testing paradigm: automated testing must become a daily, self-service engineering tool rather than a bottleneck owned by a dedicated team.

We are looking for a Staff/Lead SDET to take technical ownership of our internal test automation tooling and make this vision a reality.

Why this role exists

Your core mission is to empower product QA teams. You won't write tests; you will build the tools, APIs, and abstractions that allow QA engineers (with basic Python & OOP skills) to independently create checks, manage test states, run tests in CI/CD, and diagnose failures.

•The Product Teams own the tests.

•You own the tooling layer that makes their work possible.

💡 Core Focus Areas:

•Client Testing Tools: UI scenarios, method/component checks across Android, WebGL, and (soon) iOS.

•Server Integration: Component testing tools built over existing Python clients, SDKs, and product testability capabilities.(Note: We aren't starting from scratch. We need a visionary who can assess our existing solutions, define a target architecture, and evolve them incrementally).

What You’ll Work On

•Drive Technical Strategy: Define the roadmap for QA tooling, evolve its architecture, and personally implement key solutions.

•Build the Platform: Develop domain APIs, fixtures, and state-preparation tools for integration/component testing over existing SDKs.

•Enhance Client Automation: Extend client UI automation and enable sub-UI checks for specific client methods.

•Unify Execution: Ensure local and CI execution follow a predictable, unified path across Android and WebGL.

•Create Diagnostics: Build clear diagnostic tools to help QA engineers easily distinguish between product, test, tooling, and infrastructure failures.

•Cross-Team Collaboration: Translate recurring QA needs into product testability requirements and establish technical contracts with client/backend teams.

•Evangelize & Mentor: Drive adoption of your tools through pilots, solid documentation, and feedback loops. (Where needed, help define engineering roles and participate in hiring/onboarding).

Who You Are We are looking for a hands-on technical leader who thrives in long-term ownership of internal platforms.

•Python Expert: You regularly write, debug, and maintain Python code for libraries, frameworks, SDKs, or internal tools.

•Platform Builder: You have designed or substantially evolved a framework/SDK used by multiple teams, bringing it to a point where teams can use it independently. …
