Russian Speaking Games Testers

Job description

We are recruiting Russian speakers to be placed in a Localisation tester role. This role will be testing video games on an ongoing temporary basis.

The localisation tester works with an already translated game to identify language and cultural issues within the translated text. This includes the obvious things like spelling, grammar, punctuation, case, tense, gender, etc. The most important aspect of a Localisation Tester's role is having consistency in identifying "cultural issues" such as jokes which are no longer jokes after translation, idioms which do not translate and cultural references which are inappropriate for the target audience. Some small translations may also form part of the work.

Excellent Russian written language is essential.

The key skills for a Localisation Tester are as follows:

- Fluency in Russian
- Strong English language skills

- Strong cultural understanding of English and the required language/locale

- Enthusiastic gamer - experience of at least one current platform

- Great team worker

- Excellent attention to detail

- Ability to communicate clearly and concisely

- Previous experience, particularly in console submission processes, is a distinct advantage but isn't essential

Rate - £7.20 per hour
