Meticulously and relentlessly checking every part of a game for localization errors, there is a lot of pressure on the backs of QA Testers and especially their Team Leaders. Their work directly contributes to the success, or failure of a launch. A real cultural understanding and an eagle's eye is needed in order to succeed in this role. Luckily, our QA Test Lead Ingrid, has a strong sense for details.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Being a QA Test Lead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the best part of your job?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\"To see the success of our team being reflected in<strong>&nbsp;amazing games<\/strong>&nbsp;in the market.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is your favorite pastime at the office?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>\"I have absolutely no time for pastime activities.

Although, \u201ctaking an arrow to the knee\u201d has a different meaning in some cultures, and it means that they got married. Just thought it was very clever. \"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/altagram-test.nool.studio\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/e30474b8abb1ffa2b9cbb144392a29fc-1.jpg\" alt=\"In the life of an Altamate \u2013 QA Test Lead\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Source:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/altagram-test.nool.studio\/in-the-life-of-an-altamate-qa-test-lead\/#\">https:\/\/pin.it\/74QEHfb<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you're interested in being an Altamate, or working with Ingrid on the Team, don't hesitate to visit our&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/altagram-test.nool.studio\/careers\/#\">career<\/a>&nbsp;page to find current open positions, or to contact us as a freelancer.&nbsp;<em>See you on the team!<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>References:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Frost Mage<\/em>&nbsp;Retrieved from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wowisclassic.com\/en\/class-guide\/mage\/pve-hl-dps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.wowisclassic.com\/en\/class-guide\/mage\/pve-hl-dps\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Arrow in the knee, Skyrim Guard<\/em>&nbsp;Retrieved from&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.de\/pin\/432838214157551951\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">https:\/\/www.pinterest.de\/pin\/432838214157551951\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><em>All images are copyright to their respective owners.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here at Altagram we strongly believe, that a business is only as good as its employees.
