Economics student and experienced video game QA tester delivering precise, timely bug reports.
What I'm looking for
I am an Economics student at the University of Naples Federico II with practical experience in video game Quality Assurance and AI training. I bring an analytical mindset and a strong track record of identifying, tracking, and reporting bugs to improve product stability.
As a freelance Video Game QA Tester for Bigpoint GmbH, I focused on beta phases and pre-release updates for Drakensang Online, spearheading bug hunts and communicating detailed feedback to development teams. My timely, precise documentation contributed to successful updates and improved player reception.
I served two years as a University Student Representative, advocating for student needs and participating in departmental governance, and spent two years in a university association Human Resources team, where I developed organizational and team-management skills.
I am proactive, adaptable, and team-oriented, with strong communication skills and a passion for video game development, IT, finance, and economics. I seek opportunities where I can apply QA expertise while continuing to grow technically and contribute to reliable, player-focused products.
